Researchers in a submersible could hardly believe their eyes, or their luck, when they saw a clearly active eruption along an undersea volcanic mountain chain.

Geological evidence, for example, suggests that the island underwent a period of intense volcanic activity at the end of the last Ice Age, which has since quieted down. Enhanced spreading at the ...

At the time, some geologists believed the rift was the beginning of a new ocean as two parts of the African continent pulled apart, but the claim was controversial. Now, scientists from several ...

Mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORBs), located far from subduction zones, are typically thought to be unaffected by subduction processes. However, some MORBs display arc-like geochemical signatures ...
