MINERALS INCLUSIONS AND VOLCANIC PROCESSES KART...

Volume 69 of Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry covers the fundamental issues of
volcanology: At what depths are eruptions triggered  and over what time scales? Where and why
do magmas coalesce before ascent? If magmas stagnate for thousands of years  what forces are
responsible for initiating final ascent  or the degassing processes that accelerate upward
motion? To the extent that we can answer these questions  we move towards formulating tests of
mechanistic models of volcanic eruptions (e.g.  Wilson  1980  Slezin  2003  Scandone et al. 
2007)  and hypotheses of the tectonic controls on magma transport (e.g.  ten Brink and Brocher
1987  Takada  1994  Putirka and Busby  2007). Our goal  in part  is to review how minerals can
be used to understand volcanic systems and the processes that shape them  we also hope that
this work will spur new and integrated studies of volcanic systems.
