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 ...
Ken Sims, a professor in UW’s Department of Geology and Geophysics, recently received a $325,841 National Science Foundation grant to look at understanding the processes and timescales of basalt ...
