Understanding Non-Plume Related Intraplate Volcanism
Intraplate volcanism is a worldwide phenomenon producing volcanoes away from active plate boundaries, a process that cannot yet be sufficiently explained by plate tectonic processes, and thus is still a missing piece in the understanding of the dynamics and evolution of our planet. Models for the …

Intraplate Volcanism in our Solar System; Searching for Terrestrial Analogues for the Moon and Mars
Basalt volcanism has played a huge role in the shaping of rocky bodies throughout our Solar System, including Earth, the Moon and Mars. Intra-plate volcanism has produced millions of cubic kilometres of basaltic lava on Earth, forming the likes of the Deccan Volcanic Province and Columbia River …

Global Relationships Between Intraplate Magmatism and Dynamic Topography
… of surface uplift and mantle melting. Therefore, intraplate volcanism can act as permanent record of positive dynamic topography. This study aims to determine whether the distribution and composition of intraplate volcanic rocks can be used to track the existence of anomalously hot asthenosphere, …

Continental Magmatism and Dynamic Topography
… equatorial and South Atlantic Ocean. Cenozoic volcanism comprises low-degree melts within the spinel-garnet transition zone at ambient potential temperature. Shear wave velocity models support these results. Cenozoic volcanism in Madagascar is predominantly alkaline and records small-degree …

Crust-mantle interactions and connections with the geodynamic system in the origin and circulation of fluids in the Comoros Archipelago - Indian Ocean
… Ocean in a comparable geodynamic system of intraplate volcanism (Liuzzo et al., 2015; Boudoire et al. 2016, 2018, 2020). In terms of gas geochemistry, the various findings of this thesis converge towards the recognition of some notable peculiarities with regard to the two target islands, …
