Do arc silicic magmas form by fluid-fluxed melting of older arc crust or fractionation of basaltic magmas?
Under the right circumstances, fluid-fluxed crustal melting occurs, as demonstrated by some
amphibolite-facies migmatites, but the relatively low temperatures involved make this mode …

Fluid migration in the mantle wedge: Influence of mineral grain size and mantle compaction
Mineral grain size in the mantle affects fluid migration by controlling mantle permeability; the
smaller the grain size, the less permeable the mantle is. Mantle shear viscosity also affects …
