From expansion to collapse: Bubble and continuum multiscale modeling in open-system magmas
Janine Birnbaum, Fabian B. Wadsworth, Anthony Lamur +2
Bubble growth in silicate melts drives significant volume expansion, which has a first order control on magma transport dynamics. When magmas are exposed to external environments,…
