Rheology of dacitic volcanoes : from magma chamber to eruptive style
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Arc and especially dacitic volcanoes present a large variety of eruptive styles, from effusive to explosive, that depends on the ability of the magma ...
Temperature-dependent thermal transport properties of major Archean rock types and implications for the thermal evolution of Archean terranes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] While it is generally agreed that plate tectonics operated on Earth in the Proterozoic, a form of vertical tectonics may have operated during the ...
On the ability of rocks to conduct heat in the Lithosphere
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
typically lower reported D. For application in Earth science, we created a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet which will automatically calculate D(T) of rocks using inputs of temperature, and the relative abundances of phases. Given the random errors found...
Rheological and morphological evolution of basaltic lava flows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Over 500 million people live in proximity of an active volcano globally. Although lava flows rarely endanger human life, they often destroy critical infrastructure. Advancing our understanding of lava flow dynamics is ...
The effects of volatiles on the viscosity and heat capacity of calc-alkaline basaltic and basaltic andesite liquids
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Calc-alkaline basaltic magmas are volumetrically important at continental and island volcanic arcs, yet their thermal and physical properties are poorly described. These basaltic magmas are characteristically hydrous, and ...
