Time constraints on the origin of large volume basalts derived from O-isotope and trace element mineral zoning and U-series disequilibria in the Laki and Grímsvötn volcanic system
The 1783–1784 AD fissure eruption of Laki (Iceland) produced 15 km^3 of homogeneous basaltic lavas and tephra that are characterized by extreme (3‰) ^(18)O-depletion relative to normal mantle. Basaltic tephra erupted over the last 8 centuries and as late as in November 2004 from the Grímsvötn centra...
