Phanerozoic Evolution of Continental Large Igneous Provinces: Implications for Galactic Seasonality

Phanerozoic Evolution of Continental Large Igneous Provinces: Implications for Galactic Seasonality

This study reviews the available data on the Phanerozoic plume activity (Large Igneous Provinces (LIP’s) size and frequency) and geochemistry of their igneous rocks. A major goal of this review is to try to find the changes in intensity and geochemistry of mantle plumes linked to the Earth’s evoluti...
