An Experimental and Analytical Investigation of the Parameters that Influence Measured CO₂ in Plagioclase-Hosted Melt Inclusions in MORBs

Creator:

Drignon, Melissa J.

Abstract:

To understand the processes that lead to the formation of the oceanic crust, one must know the composition and the depth at which primary melts originate. Towards this end, this dissertation focuses on plagioclase-hosted melt inclusions from plagioclase ultraphyric basalts (PUBs). Plagioclase is usually considered to be the second phase,...
