The mixing is like "putting a red-hot rock into a cup of ice," said study author Rex Taylor, of the University of Southampton in Britain.

This induced magma mixing, because of the stress change in the region as a result of the ...

If the magmas have enough heat and time (and motion) to mix, we would expect that the resulting magma would be more completely mixed and may support the idea of crustal ...

Whatever the ultimate cause of Krakatau's 1883 eruption, the effects were felt literally around the world. The volcanic dust ejected into the stratosphere lingered for years, lowering global temperatures ...

Introduction The role of magma mixing as a mechanism for triggering volcanic eruptions has become widely recognised (e.g. Sparks et al. 1977, Eichelberger, 1995). Influx of fresh magma into a reservoir containing cooler magma can cause remobilisation by addition of heat and/or volatiles to the resident magma ...
Read more...Magma Mixing. If two or more magmas with different chemical compositions come in contact with one another beneath the surface of the Earth, then it is possible that they could mix with each other to produce compositions intermediate between the end members. If the compositions of the magmas are greatly different (i.e. basalt and rhyolite ...

Read more...Numerous volcanic eruptions deposit mixtures of different magma which originate from a layered magma reservoir. It has been argued that, in some cases, the mixing acts as the trigger for eruption.
Read more...In fact, the magnesian mantles grew from high-T magma in a mixed system. During mixing, high-T magma would be quenched, and the degree of undercooling would be higher than during normal crystallization in a chamber. An increased degree of undercooling causes the growth rate of minerals to increase by two or three orders of magnitude.

These processes may trigger dyke propagation and further magma rise, inducing long-term (days to months) volcano deformation, seismic swarms, gravity anomalies, and changes in …
