Volumetrically significant melt production requires crustal temperatures above
approximately 800° C. At the grain scale, the former presence of melt may be inferred based …

After decades of research, optimal scale selection for image segmentation remains a key
scientific problem in image analysis. In order to contribute to a solution, a new method was …

The thickness and spatial distribution of foliation-parallel leucosomes in metric to decametric
scale interlayered units of migmatitic paragneiss and orthogneiss from the Fosdick migmatite …

The Estonian Precambrian crystalline basement, which consists of Paleoto Meso-
Proterozoic metamorphic and igneous rocks, is covered by a 100-780 m thick deposit of …

Several authors have proposed that granitic melt accumulation and transport from the
source region occurs in networks of connected melt-filled veins and dykes. These models …

In this chapter, I address the relationship between (leuco-) granites, migmatites and residual
granulites–the former recording magma ascent and pluton emplacement in the middle to …

Net-structured leucocratic vein systems are ubiquitous in high-grade and migmatite terrains
and are interpreted to represent interconnected former magma-bearing structures that …

Magma is generated by partial melting from micrometre-scale droplets at the source and
may accumulate to form> 100 km-scale plutons. Magma accumulation thus spans well over …

Leucosome sizes in migmatites has been shown to follow power-law distribution, which is
indicative of self-organized criticality governing accumulation and transport of partial melts in …

Whether or not melt-flow networks are scale-invariant may have broad implications for the
understanding of the development of magmatic systems. Leucosome distributions in natural …
