DOI: 10.1007/s00445-017-1187-8
Abstract: The impact of Holocene eruptive events from hot spots like Iceland may have had significant global implications; thus, dating and knowledge of past eruptions chronology is important. However, at high-latitude volcanic islands, the paucity of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2019.116007
Abstract: © 2019 The Authors The compositions and volumes of basalt generated by partial melting of the Earth's mantle provide fundamental constraints on the thermo-chemical conditions of the upper mantle. However, using melting products to interpret… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2017.10.017
Abstract: Abstract Current estimates indicate that the number of high-temperature vents (one of the primary pathways for the heat extraction from the Earth's mantle) – at least 1 per 100 km of axial length – scales with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2018.04.026
Abstract: Abstract The Reykjanes Peninsula Oblique Rift, a segment of the mid-Atlantic plate boundary, connects the Reykjanes Ridge to the rift zones of Iceland. The axis of the deformation zone of the plate boundary can be… read more here.
