Crustal accretionary processes at mid-ocean ridges - Valu Fa Ridge, Lau Basin
The structure of oceanic crust is surprisingly uniform, which suggests that crustal accretionary processes at mid-ocean ridges must be broadly similar, despite their different spreading rates and seafloor morphologies. Seismic studies have revealed the presence of sub-axial magma chambers at fast, s...
