Along arc heterogeneity in local seismicity across the Lesser Antilles subduction zone from a dense ocean-bottom seismometer network (2019)
Journal Article
Bie, L., Rietbrock, A., Hicks, S., Allen, R., Blundy, J., Clouard, V., …Wilson, M. (2020). Along arc heterogeneity in local seismicity across the Lesser Antilles subduction zone from a dense ocean-bottom seismometer network. Seismological Research Letters, 9(1), 237-247. https://doi.org/10.1785/0220190147

The Lesser Antilles arc is only one of two subduction zones where slow‐spreading Atlantic lithosphere is consumed. Slow‐spreading may result in the Atlantic lithosphere being more pervasively and heterogeneously hydrated than fast‐spreading Pacific l...

Contrasting TiO2 compositions in early cenozoic mafic sills of the Faroe Islands : an example of basalt formation from distinct melting regimes (2019)
Journal Article
Hansen, J., Davidson, J., Jerram, D., Ottley, C., & Widdowson, M. (2019). Contrasting TiO2 compositions in early cenozoic mafic sills of the Faroe Islands : an example of basalt formation from distinct melting regimes. Earth sciences (New York, N.Y. Print), 8(5), 235-267. https://doi.org/10.11648/j.earth.20190805.11

The Paleocene lava succession of the Faroe Islands Basalt Group (FIBG), which is a part of the North Atlantic Igneous Province (NAIP), is intruded by numerous basaltic sills. These can be grouped into three main categories according to their geochemi...

Lower Crustal Heterogeneity and Fractional Crystallization Control Evolution of Small-volume Magma Batches at Ocean Island Volcanoes (Ascension Island, South Atlantic) (2019)
Journal Article
Chamberlain, K., Barclay, J., Preece, K., Brown, R., & Davidson, J. (2019). Lower Crustal Heterogeneity and Fractional Crystallization Control Evolution of Small-volume Magma Batches at Ocean Island Volcanoes (Ascension Island, South Atlantic). Journal of Petrology, 60(8), 1489-1522. https://doi.org/10.1093/petrology/egz037

Ocean island volcanoes erupt a wide range of magmatic compositions via a diverse range of eruptive styles. Understanding where and how these melts evolve is thus an essential component in the anticipation of future volcanic activity. Here we examine...
