Petrological and geochemical variations along Iceland's Neovolcanic Zones

Petrological, geochemical, and geophysical gradients along the SE volcanic zone in Iceland imply systematic variations in melting and crystallization conditions and in magma supply and eruption rates. At the southern tip of the zone, in Vestmannaeyjar, alkali basalt magmas are generated by small deg...
