The petrogenesis of magmatic systems: using igneous textures to understand magmatic processes (2018)
Book Chapter
Jerram, D., Dobson, K., Morgan, D., & Pankhurst, M. (2018). The petrogenesis of magmatic systems: using igneous textures to understand magmatic processes. In S. Burchardt (Ed.), Volcanic and igneous plumbing systems : understanding magma transport, storage, and evolution in the earth's crust (191-229). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/b978-0-12-809749-6.00008-x

An understanding of the petrogenesis of magmatic systems can be achieved by studying their constituent parts (e.g. crystals) and their chemical trends. Magmas are often travelling from source to emplacement levels together with a growing population o...

In June 1975, oil from the Argyll Field became the first to be produced from the UK North Sea. Seventeen years later, the Argyll Field was abandoned with all production facilities removed. In 2001, two new companies, Acorn Oil & Gas and Tuscan Energy... Read More about Argyll Field: the first oil field to be developed on the UK Continental Shelf.

Peter Lang. https://doi.org/10.3726/b11044

The site of Blick Mead has attracted an unusual degree of interest. In addition to its intrinsic importance as a Mesolithic site, its location less than two kilometres east of Stonehenge and its temporal overlap with the massive Mesolithic posts in t...

McCaffrey, A. Dore, & S. Buiter (Eds.), Fifty years of the Wilson cycle concept in plate tectonics (393-414). The Geological Society. https://doi.org/10.1144/sp470.2

The opening of the North Atlantic region was one of the most important geodynamic events that shaped the present day passive margins of Europe, Greenland and North America. Although well-studied, much remains to be understood about the evolution of t... Read More about The Jan Mayen microplate complex and the Wilson cycle.
