Structural and Climatic Effects of Large-Scale Basaltic Magmatism: Constraints and Insights from Geodynamic Models

This thesis concerns the causes and consequences of magma emplacement in the Earth’slithosphere during the formation of Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and continental rifts. Motivated by geological, geophysical, geochemical and paleoclimate data, I formulate geodynamic models to address the followin...
