Mechanisms and timescales of felsic magma segregation, ascent and emplacement in the Himalaya
We combine field, petrological, geochemical and experimental observations to evaluate the timescales of compaction-driven and shear-assisted melt extraction and ascent in the Himalaya. The results show that melt migration via compaction and channelling is inescapable and operates on timescales of le...
