Interactions between mantle plumes and mid-ocean ridges : constraints from geophysics, geochemistry, and geodynamical modeling
… part of Chapter 3 investigates the relationship between 3HetHe ratios and geophysical indicators of plume robustness for nine hotspots. A close correlation between a plume's flux and maximum 3HetHe ratio suggests a link between plume upwelling strength and origination in the deep, relatively …

Trace element geochemistry of oceanic peridotites and silicate melt inclusions : implications for mantle melting and ocean ridge magmagenesis
The mantle melting process is fundamental to basalt genesis and crustal accretion at mid-ocean ridges. It is believed that melts ascend more rapidly than the surrounding mantle, implying a process similar to fractional melting may be occurring, but geochemical evidence for this has been lacking. …

Geochemical and rheological constraints on the dynamics of the oceanic upper mantle
… the Josephine Peridotite to quantify the relationship between mineral orientation and shear strain, providing an improved framework for the interpretation of seismic anisotropy. The upper mantle is generally assumed to be homogeneous in composition. From detailed isotopic and chemical analyses of …
