Melting and melt migration in heterogeneous mantle beneath mid-ocean ridges
<p>Evidence for chemical heterogeneity in the mantle is widespread in oceanic basalts, yet its consequences for basalt petrogenesis are little understood. A significant unknown is the effect that heterogeneity has on the dynamics of magma flow in the mantle. Observations of oceanic crust and t...
