The Ins and Outs of Water in Olivine-Hosted Melt Inclusions: Hygrometer vs. Speedometer

The amount of water dissolved in magmas at depth beneath volcanoes is fundamental to a wide range of magmatic and eruptive processes due to water’s dominant control on magma generation, viscosity, and buoyancy. Since magmas degas most of their initial water content upon ascent and eruption, the prim...
