Abstract Basaltic lavas from Hainan Island near the northern edge of the South China Sea
have an age range of between late Miocene (about 13 Ma) and Holocene, with a peak age …

Olivine-hosted melt inclusions within lava retain important information regarding the lava's
primary magma compositions and mantle sources. Thus, they can be used to infer the nature …

Previously published Cu partition coefficients (D Cu) between silicate minerals and melts
cover a wide range and have resulted in large uncertainties in model calculations of Cu …

The 19 known shield volcanoes of the main Hawaiian Islands—15 now emergent, 3
submerged, and 1 newly born and still submarine—lie at the southeast end of a long-lived …

Major and trace element concentrations, and Sr–Nd–Hf–Pb isotopic compositions of Late
Cenozoic (4.1 to 13.8 Ma) basaltic rocks from southern Vietnam have been determined to …

Abstract The Hawaiian–Emperor volcanic island and seamount chain is usually attributed to
a hot mantle plume, located beneath the Pacific lithosphere, that delivers material sourced …

Melt inclusions and their host olivines in basaltic lavas provide important information about
the nature of their mantle source. We present the first analyzed chemical data of olivine …

We review the most important computer programs for the classification of igneous rocks and
point out those that follow the recommendations of the International Union of Geological …

This work applies a statistical methodology involving the calculation of success rates to
evaluate a total of 28 tectonomagmatic discrimination diagrams: four bivariate (Ti/Y-Zr/Y; Zr …

Melt inclusions and their host olivine provide unique information about the nature,
distribution and scale of mantle source heterogeneity. We present the first analyses of the …
