DOI: 10.1007/s12665-020-08926-3
Abstract: Lacustrine sediments of the Big Lachman Lake (James Ross Island, Antarctica) are dominated by clay- and silt-sized particles of varied petrographic composition. These are of volcanic origin and are derived predominantly from the Mendel Formation.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/petrology/egx036
Abstract: Volatiles play an important role in magmatic and volcanic processes. Melt inclusions are a powerful tool to study pre-eruptive volatiles, but interpretation of their H2O and CO2 variations can be difficult. The H2O and CO2… read more here.
