An experimental study of the brittle-ductile transition of basalt at oceanic crust pressure and temperature conditions

An experimental study of the brittle-ductile transition of basalt at oceanic crust pressure and temperature conditions

The brittle to ductile transition (BDT) in rocks may strongly influence their transport properties (i.e., permeability, porosity topology…) and the maximum depth and temperature where hydrothermal fluids may circulate. To examine this transition in the context of Icelandic crust, we conducted deform...
