Magmatic differentiation and thermal structure of large igneous provinces KU Leuven
Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are the largest manifestations of volcanism in the Earth’s history. They represent extremely large volumes of mafic/ultramafic magmas erupted or emplaced in the upper crust within a short geological time interval. These massive events have had a profound impact on the planet's geological, climatic, and biological systems. To better constrain the geochemical characteristics, thermal structure and volcanic ...
