Exceptional eruptive CO2 emissions from intra-plate alkaline magmatism in the Canary volcanic archipelago
Abstract Alkaline mafic magmas forming intra-plate oceanic islands are believed to be strongly enriched in CO2 due to low-degree partial melting of enriched mantle sources. However, until now, such CO2 enhancement has not been verified by measuring CO2 degassing during a subaerial eruption. Here, we...
