Deep Earth volatile cycles as revealed by basalt chemistry
… a regulator on our planet’s long term climate. Basalt geochemistry is our most direct probe of Earth’s convecting mantle, however the tendency of volatile elements to form vapour phases deep within volcanic systems obscures the mantle volatile signals inherited by basalts. This thesis explores …

Analysis of Chemical Elements in Basalts using Mislabeled Data, a Machine Learning Approach
<p>Scientists use basalt chemistry to discriminate among different tectonic settings. There are well-known chemical elements used to classify tectonic settings. An exploration of new features is done using Logistic Regression and Random Forest to discover any new elements of interest. The models …

The influence of ridge geometry at the ultraslow-spreading Southwest Indian Ridge (9⁰-25⁰E) : basalt composition sensitivity to variations in source and process
… sharp contrast in geometry, physiography, and chemistry reflects "source" versus "process" dominated generation of basalt. Robust along-axis correlation of ridge characteristics (i.e. morphology, upwelling rate, lithospheric thickness), basalt chemistry, and crustal thickness (estimated from …
