Toto, I Have a Feeling We’re Not In The Eastern Galapagos Anymore: The Anomalous Behavior of Española Volcano, Galapagos
CHEMISTRY AND EVOLUTION OF EARTH’S INTERIOR AS RECORDED BY MANTLE PLUMES I POSTER
volcanology, geochemistry and petrology | 13 december 2023
Tom Richards, Karen S. Harpp, Mark D. Kurz, Jake M...
The Galápagos Islands are formed by mantle plume volcanism as the Nazca Plate travels east. As a result, island age increases eastward; the oldest isl...
