Ocean Island Geochemistry
Item
- Title
- Ocean Island Geochemistry
- Description
-
It is apparent given the given diagrams that ocean islands vary chemically from MORBS and convergent margins.
Basalts found on ocean islands tend to have the highest levels of incompatible elements. This is because the magma is sourced from deep in the mantle at the boundary of the core. - Subject
