Wolf Volcano, Galapagos Archipelago: Melting and Magmatic Evolution at the Margins of a Mantle Plume 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
GEIST DENNIS J.; NAUMANN TERRY R.; STANDISH JARED J.; KURZ MARK D.; HARPP KAREN S.; WHITE WILLIAM M.; FORNARI DANIEL J. 《Journal of Petrology》2005,46(11):2197-2224
Wolf volcano, an active shield volcano on northern Isabela Islandin the Galápagos Archipelago, has undergone two majorstages of caldera collapse, with a phase of partial calderarefilling between. Wolf is a typical Galápagos shieldvolcano, with circumferential vents on the steep upper carapaceand radial vents distributed in diffuse rift zones on the shallower-slopinglower flanks. The radial fissures continue into the submarineenvironment, where they form more tightly focused rift zones.Wolf's magmas are strikingly monotonous: estimated eruptivetemperatures of the majority of lavas span a total of only 22°C.This homogeneity is attributed to buffering of magmas as theyascend through a thick column of olivine gabbroic mush thathas been deposited from a thin, shallow (<2 km deep) subcalderasill that is in a thermochemical steady state. Wolf's lavashave the most depleted isotopic compositions of any historicallyactive intraplate ocean island volcano on the planet and haveisotopic compositions (except for 3He/4He) indistinguishablefrom mid-ocean ridge basalt erupted from the GalápagosSpreading Center (GSC) 250–410 km away from the peak ofinfluence of the Galápagos plume. Wolf's lavas are enrichedin incompatible trace elements and have systematic major elementdifferences relative to GSC lavas, however. Wolf's magmas resultfrom lower extents of melting, deeper melt extraction, and agreater influence of garnet compared with GSC magmas, but Wolfand the GSC share the same sources. These melt generation conditionsare attributed to melting in a thermal and mechanical boundarylayer of depleted asthenosphere at the margins of the Galápagosplume. The lower degrees of melting and extraction from deeperlevels result from a thicker lithospheric cap at Wolf than existsat the GSC. KEY WORDS: caldera; Galápagos; mush; partial melting; plume 相似文献

Petrology and Geochemistry of Volcan Cerro Azul: Petrologic Diversity among the Western Galapagos Volcanoes 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Cerro Azul, one of the large shield volcanoes in the westernGalápagos archipelago, has erupted a wide range of tholeiiticto alkalic basalts. These diverse compositions include someof the most primitive yet reported from the western archipelagoand are unlike those of the other, well-studied, neighboringvolcanoes of Sierra Negra and Alcedo, which have erupted basaltof fairly uniform composition. Major- and trace-element modelingshows that Cerro Azul, Alcedo and Sierra Negra share a similardepth of melting and source composition. Modeling also revealsthat there are small, systematic differences in the extent ofpartial melting between the volcanoes that can be related totheir distance from the proposed plume center below the westernmostisland of Fernandina. However, even though melts segregatingfrom the plume in the western Galápagos reflect a narrowrange of temperatures and source compositions, there are widevariations in the enrichments of major and trace elements betweenCerro Azul, Alcedo and Sierra Negra that cannot be attributedto mantle processes. We believe the observed intershield geochemicaldifferences result from magma supply and cooling rates thatare unique to each volcano, and reflect the variations in lithospherictransport and storage processes across the western archipelago.
