Journal Article
Bouilhol, P., Magni, V., van Hunen, J., & Kaislaniemi, L. (2015). A numerical approach to melting in warm subduction zones. Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 411, 37-44. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2014.11.043

The complex feedback between dehydration and melting in hot subduction zones is quantitatively addressed in this study. We present an integrated numerical tool that combines a high-resolution thermo-mechanical subduction model with a thermodynamic da...

Deep water recycling through time (2014)
Journal Article
Magni, V., Bouilhol, P., & van Hunen, J. (2014). Deep water recycling through time. Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 15(11), 4203-4216. https://doi.org/10.1002/2014gc005525

We investigate the dehydration processes in subduction zones and their implications for the water cycle throughout Earth's history. We use a numerical tool that combines thermo-mechanical models with a thermodynamic database to examine slab dehydrati... Read More about Deep water recycling through time.

How collision triggers backarc extension: Insight into Mediterranean style of extension from 3-D numerical models (2014)
Journal Article
Magni, V., Faccenna, C., van Hunen, J., & Funiciello, F. (2014). How collision triggers backarc extension: Insight into Mediterranean style of extension from 3-D numerical models. Geology, 42(6), 511-514. https://doi.org/10.1130/g35446.1

The formation and evolution of a backarc basin are linked to the dynamics of the subduction system. The opening of the central Mediterranean basins is a well-documented example of backarc extension characterized by short-lived episodes of spreading....
