This dataset contains bulk rock, glass, melt inclusion and host phenocryst geochemical compositions for materials from Tolbachik volcanic field, Kamchatka, Russia, together with supporting...

Bubble growth in silicate melts (NERC Grant NE/N002954/1)

Vesicularity (phi) as a function of time for samples of natural hydrated silicate glass (obsidian) from optical dilatrometric analysis. Also numerical model for analysis of dataset and associated...

Campanian Ignimbrite glass (melt) chemistry (NERC Grant NE/S003584/1)

Major element glass chemistry of deposits of the Campanian Ignimbrite from proximal and distal units across Campania and central Italy. Details of the samples that this data relates to can be found...

Data for the viscous flow rheology of samples containing both crystals and melt.

These datasets are for samples collected from Volcan de Colima (Mexico) which is at coordinates: 19°30’46" N 103°37’02" W / 19.512727°N 103.617241°W. This volcano erupts magmas that are...

Determination of the water content of the Archaean mantle

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. The freshest available Archaean (3.5 and 2.7 ga) and young komatiites, including very fresh Belingwe olivine with melt inclusions and newly collected Barberton rock...

Scales of preservation and root causes of mantle heterogeneities in the Iapetan Ocean convecting upper mantle NERC grant NE/J00457X/1

Although the terrestrial mantle comprises ~80 vol.% of our planet, its compositional architecture is not well understood despite the importance such knowledge holds for constraining Earth's thermal...

Data and codes to demonstrate measurement of shear-wave attenuation anisotropy beneath the Ethiopian Rift

Shear-wave attenuation anisotropy can provide constraints on mantle melt, such as that present beneath the Ethiopian rift. This package contains codes implementing a new methodology to measure such...

Ab initio calculations and high P-T experiments on iron, iron alloys and other materials (NERC Grant NE/M015181/1)

This collection includes the elastic calculations of the hcp-Fe-Si-S-C alloy system. NERC grant NE/M015181/1 - Pre melting in iron and iron alloys: ab initio calculations and high P-T experiments...

Apatite as a quantitative tool for tephrochronology and magmatic evolution (NERC grant NE/K003852/1)

Documentation of experiments run to investigate partitioning of H-C-F-Cl (Hydrogen, Carbon, fluorine, Chlorine) in the system apatite-melt. Data include representative images of each experiment,...

Major element, trace element and Nd isotopes of cumulate plagioclase and clinopyroxene in lower crustal gabbros from Hess Deep oceanic crust, East Pacific Rise, with elemental maps of all studied samples

We collected major element, trace element and Nd isotopes of cumulate plagioclase and clinopyroxene in lower crustal gabbros from Hess Deep oceanic crust (~2°15'N, 101°30'W) to investigate the Nd...

Experimental logs and analysis of olivine polymorphs and MORB (Mid-Ocean Ridge Basalt) composition garnetite samples recovered from high-pressure faulting experiments

Multi-anvil experiments were performed both in static and deformation geometries on olivine polymorphs and MORB (Mid-Ocean Ridge Basalt) -composition garnetite. Faults were induced by uniaxial...
