Simultaneous rift-scale inflation of a deep crustal sill network in Afar, East Africa
Abstract Decades of studies at divergent plate margins have revealed networks of magmatic sills at the crust-mantle boundary. However, a lack of direct observations of deep magma motion limits our understanding of magma inflow from the mantle into the lower crust and the mechanism of sill formation....
