Metamorphic consequences of secular changes in oceanic crust composition and implications for uniformitarianism in the geological record

Cooling of the Earth's mantle since the Meso-Archean is predicted by thermal and petrological models to have induced a secular change in the composition of primary mantle-derived magmas – and thus bulk oceanic crust; in particular, suggesting a decrease in maficity over time. This hypothesis un...
