The working group Geochemistry and ore deposits focuses on the fundamentals of element enrichment and depletion upon fluid transport and fluid-rock interaction in the Earth’s crust.

CO2 in carbonates of the Iceland crust predominantly originates from the mantle Only 1%–10% of mantle-derived CO2 that degasses along the Iceland rift zone is permanently fixed into carbonates C...

Chemical reactions and element mobilization during seawater-basalt interaction play a central role in regulating global element fluxes between seawate…

Abstract. The highest precision and accuracy in U–Pb geochronology is achieved using isotope dilution thermal ionisation mass spectrometry (ID-TIMS), a technique which owes its reliability to precise ...

Abstract. The architectures of magma plumbing systems and timescales of magmatic processes are fundamental to understanding volcanic eruption dynamics. Thi

Nature Reviews Earth & Environment - Crystal mush processes are key to magmatic differentiation, volcanic system behaviour and some mineral resources. This Review discusses the processes...

Geochemistry and geochronology show that Samoa and Rurutu–Arago are the longest-lived Pacific hotspots, providing better constraints on plate rotation and support for a link between the Louisville vol...

The postwar compact on research that powered America’s economic and military dominance is under threat.

Seismic network-based analysis enables to measure spatial, temporal and spectral properties of distinct tremor patterns during the eruption Minute-long tremor bursts associated with pulsating lav...

Temperature and precipitation play less of a role in predicting area burned compared to wind speed and number of ignitions.

Iceland’s recent basalt eruptions originated at the crust-mantle boundary and show chemical variability over remarkably short timescales of weeks, suggesting exchanges between diverse magma sources.

We use high frequency sampling to observe rapid changes in lava composition during the 183 day 2021 Fagradalsfjall eruption The eruption was sourced from 12 to 15 km depth, corresponding to the l...

Mid-crustal magma domains are the source of many basaltic eruptions. Lavas from individual eruptions are often chemically homogeneous, suggesting that they derive from single, well-mixed magma reservo...
