Note generali

The chapters ... represent an extensive review ... by the invited speakers at a two-day short course on Minerals, Inclusions and Volcanic Processes held prior to the annual fall American Geophysical Union Meeting in San Francisco, California (December 13-14, 2008) ... in conjunction with an AGU-sponsored topical session at the subsequent ... meeting"--Page [iii].

Sommario/riassunto

Volume 69 of Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry covers the fundamental issues of volcanology: At what depths are eruptions triggered, and over what time scales? Where and why do magmas coalesce before ascent? If magmas stagnate for thousands of years, what forces are responsible for initiating final ascent, or the degassing processes that accelerate upward motion? To the extent that we can answer these questions, we move towards formulating tests of mechanistic models of volcanic eruptions (e.g., Wilson, 1980; Slezin, 2003; Scandone et al., 2007), and hypotheses of the tectonic controls on magma transport (e.g., ten Brink and Brocher, 1987; Takada, 1994; Putirka and Busby, 2007). Our goal, in part, is to review how minerals can be used to understand volcanic systems and the processes that shape them; we also hope that this work will spur new and integrated studies of volcanic systems.
