Aseismic ridges are variably broad linear topographic features built by submarine volcanic
activity that are thicker and more buoyant than the surrounding oceanic crust. Together with …

The Ecuadorian arc is composed of an unusually high number of volcanoes, organized as
along-arc alignments and across-arc clusters, in a relatively small area. Although several …

The unusually high number of volcanoes in the Ecuadorian Arc, located in the deformation
zone of the continental North Andean Sliver, coincides with the projection of the major …

The youngest volcanism of the Ecuadorian Volcanic Front (Western Cordillera) is mainly
dominated by highly explosive events, including the growth and violent destruction of lava …

Extensive fieldwork at the Cotacachi-Cuicocha Volcanic Complex (CCVC, North of Ecuador)
resulted in a new collection of geological data including cartography, chronology …

Identifying the sources of distal tephra in marine sediments or polar ice provides clues on
the dynamic and large-scale impact of major volcanic eruptions. However, determination of …

The Billecocha plateau (4000 m asl) lies in the high elevation Ecuadorian Andes volcanic
arc. It overhangs by 2000 m above the interandean valley. Both the plateau and surrounding …

Volcanic arc clusters are groups of adjacent volcanic edifices that allow the investigation of
geochemical changes occurring through time within a limited area (< few hundreds of km 2) …

We report a petrographic and whole-rock geochemical characterization of the Cenozoic
volcanic rocks cropping out in the Tafresh area of the central Urumieh-Dokhtar Magmatic Arc …

Diffuse CO 2 soil degassing is often a prominent feature of geothermal systems related to
the presence of magma in volcanic regions. Studies have shown that identifying the spatial …
