Magma transport and olivine crystallization depths in Kīlauea's east rift zone inferred from experimentally rehomogenized melt inclusions

Tuohy, Robin M., Wallace, Paul J., Loewen, Matthew W., Swanson, Donald A., and Kent, Adam J. R.

Abstract:

Concentrations of H₂O and CO₂ in olivine-hosted melt inclusions can be used to estimate crystallization depths for the olivine host. However, the original dissolved CO₂ concentration of melt inclusions at the time of trapping can be difficult to measure directly because in many cases substantial CO₂ is transferred to shrinkage...
