Chemical variation trends at fast and slow spreading mid-ocean ridges (1993)
Journal Article
Niu, Y., & Batiza, R. (1993). Chemical variation trends at fast and slow spreading mid-ocean ridges. Journal of Geophysical Research, 98(B5), 7887-7902. https://doi.org/10.1029/93jb00149

We examined an expanded global data set of mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) major element analyses. In agreement with previous results, we show that slow spreading ridges tend to have more primitive (high Mg/Fe) lavas than fast spreading ridges. Fractio...

Petrology and magma chamber processes at the East Pacific Rise ~ 9°30'N (1992)
Journal Article
Batiza, R., & Niu, Y. (1992). Petrology and magma chamber processes at the East Pacific Rise ~ 9°30'N. Journal of Geophysical Research, 97(B5), 6779-6797. https://doi.org/10.1029/92jb00172

We present new major and trace element data for a set of closely spaced (< 1.8 km) dredges along a well-studied portion of the East Pacific Rise (EPR) axis near 90°30′N (9°17′N to 90°50′N). With the exception of enriched mid-ocean ridge basalt (E-MOR... Read More about Petrology and magma chamber processes at the East Pacific Rise ~ 9°30'N.
