Crustal CO2 contribution to subduction zone degassing recorded through calc-silicate xenoliths in arc lavas (2019)
Journal Article
Whitley, S., Gertisser, R., Halama, R., Preece, K., R. Troll, V., & M. Deegan, F. (2019). Crustal CO2 contribution to subduction zone degassing recorded through calc-silicate xenoliths in arc lavas. Scientific reports, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-44929-2

Interaction between magma and crustal carbonate at active arc volcanoes has recently been proposed as a source of atmospheric CO2, in addition to CO2 released from the mantle and subducted oceanic crust. However, quantitative constraints on efciency... Read More about Crustal CO2 contribution to subduction zone degassing recorded through calc-silicate xenoliths in arc lavas.

The Thickness of the Mantle Lithosphere and Collision-related Volcanism in the Lesser Caucasus (2019)
Journal Article
Sugden, P., Savov, I., Wilson, M., Meliksetian, K., Navasardyan, G., & Halama, R. (2019). The Thickness of the Mantle Lithosphere and Collision-related Volcanism in the Lesser Caucasus. Journal of Petrology, 199-230. https://doi.org/10.1093/petrology/egy111

The Lesser Caucasus mountains sit on a transition within the Arabia-Eurasia collision zone between very thin lithosphere (< 100?km) to the west, under Eastern Anatolia, and a very thick lithospheric root (up to 200?km) in the east, under western Iran...
