A review of mechanical models of dike propagation: Schools of thought, results and future directions
Magma transport in brittle rock occurs by diking. Understanding the dynamics of diking and
its observable consequences is essential to deciphering magma propagation in volcanic …

Magma chambers: Formation, local stresses, excess pressures, and compartments
A Gudmundsson - Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2012 - Elsevier
An existing magma chamber is normally a necessary condition for the generation of a large
volcanic edifice. Most magma chambers form through repeated magma injections …

Stress inversions to forecast magma pathways and eruptive vent location
When a batch of magma reaches Earth's surface, it forms a vent from which volcanic
products are erupted. At many volcanoes, successive batches may open vents far away from …
