Understanding melt generation beneath the slow-spreading Kolbeinsey Ridge using U-238, Th-230, and Pa-231 excesses
To examine the petrogenesis and sources of basalts from the Kolbeinsey Ridge, one of the shallowest locations along the global ridge system, we present new measurements of Nd, Sr, Hf, and Pb isotopes and U-series disequilibria on 32 axial basalts. Young Kolbeinsey basalts (full-spreading rate=1.8cm/...
