This text reviews current research on the physical processes, mechanics, and dynamics of volcanism. Using theoretical, experimental, and observational perspectives, it addresses the regulatory mechanisms controlling the movement of melts and cooling, with emphasis on mantle plumes, mid-ocean ridges, and intraplate magmatism. Coverage of subduction zone magmatism includes: the fluid mechanics of mixed magma migration; the internal structure of active systems; grain-scale melt flow; the rheology of partial melts; the ...

This text reviews current research on the physical processes, mechanics, and dynamics of volcanism. Using theoretical, experimental, and observational perspectives, it addresses the regulatory mechanisms controlling the movement of melts and cooling, with emphasis on mantle plumes, mid-ocean ridges, and intraplate magmatism. Coverage of subduction zone magmatism includes: the fluid mechanics of mixed magma migration; the internal structure of active systems; grain-scale melt flow; the rheology of partial melts; the numerical simulation of porous media melt migration; and the review of nonlinear processes in magma transport.
