This essential reference for graduate students and researchers provides a unified treatment
of earthquakes and faulting as two aspects of brittle tectonics at different timescales. The …

The crustal and tectonic structure of the Red Sea and especially the maximum northward
extent of the (ultra) slow Red Sea spreading centre has been debated—mainly due to a lack …

Coupled magmatic and tectonic activity plays an important role in high-temperature
hydrothermal circulation at mid-ocean ridges. The circulation patterns for such systems have …

The conditions of methane (CH4) formation in olivine-hosted secondary fluid inclusions and
their prevalence in peridotite and gabbroic rocks from a wide range of geological settings …

The heavily-revised Practical Handbook of Marine Science, Fourth Edition continues its
tradition as a state-of-the-art reference that updates the field of marine science to meet the …

Abstract The Earth Magnetic Anomaly Grid at 2 arc min resolution version 3, EMAG2v3,
combines marine and airborne trackline observations, satellite data, and magnetic …

More than a third of mid-ocean ridges have a spreading rate of less than 20 millimetres a
year. The lack of deep imaging data means that factors controlling melting and mantle …

Abstract The Central Arctic Ocean is one of the most oligotrophic oceans on Earth because
of its sea-ice cover and short productive season. Nonetheless, across the peaks of extinct …

Abstract The ultraslow eastern Southwest Indian Ridge (SWIR) offers an opportunity to study
the effect of magma supply on an ultraslow mid-ocean ridge starting from quasi-melt-free …

Crustal accretion at mid-ocean ridges governs the creation and evolution of the oceanic
lithosphere. Generally accepted models,,–of passive mantle upwelling and melting predict …
