The statistically correct handling of compositional data requires log–ratio transformation
whereas the multivariate technique of linear discriminant analysis (LDA) assumes a normal …

A brief critical review is presented of the geological, geophysical, geochemical, and plate
tectonic evidence for the origin and evolution of the central part of the Mexican Volcanic Belt …

The four tectonic discrimination diagrams of Pearce et al.[Journal of Petrology, v. 25, p. 956–
983] for granitic rocks were first evaluated using the literature cited by these authors as well …

Analogous to chemometrics, geochemometrics can be defined as the science resulting from
the combination of statistics, mathematics and computation with geochemistry. This term in …

Abstract If both the Mexican Volcanic Belt (MVB) and the Central American Volcanic Arc
(CAVA) have been related to the subduction of the Cocos plate beneath the North American …

Abstract The Sierra de Chichinautzin (SCN) volcanic field is considered one of the key areas
to understand the complex petrogenetic processes at the volcanic front of the Mexican …

Discrimination diagrams have been used to decipher tectonic setting of old terrains. New
discriminant-function based multi-dimensional diagrams for acid magmas were recently …

The La Primavera caldera lies close to the triple junction of the Tepic-Zacoalco, Colima, and
Chapala rifts in the western part of the Mexican Volcanic Belt. It is a promising geothermal …

Fifty-five new multi-dimensional diagrams, mostly based on log-ratio transformations, were
used to decipher tectonic settings for 17 cases of Precambrian belts in Canada, the USA …

We report new geochemical and Sr, Nd, and Pb radiogenic isotope data on Pleistocene to
