New models for evolution of magma-poor rifted margins based on a review of data and concepts from West Iberia and the Alps

Rifting, lithosphere breakup and volcanism: Comparison of magma-poor and volcanic rifted margins

Petrological conditions and thermobarometry of Trachyandesites in Lar Region, Southwest of Damavand Volcano

Introduction Damavand volcano is a large composite cone (≥ 400 km3) with height elevation (5678m) above sea level, in Central Alborz. This volcano consists of two buildings including old lavas between 1.8 to 0.8 Ma in the northern and eastern part of the current cone and young lavas with about 0.4 to 7 ka years in the south and west part. Trachytic and trachy-andesitic lavas are the most abund...

Using Magma Mixing/Mingling Evidence for Understanding Magmatic Evolution at Mount Bidkhan Stratovolcano (South-East Iran)

Mount Bidkhan stratovolcano is located in the central Iranian volcanic belt. It is composed of several types of pyroclastic deposits, lava flows and intrusive bodies. Textural and chemical characteristics of plagioclase phenocrysts from the eruptive products volcanic edifice, record complex magma mixing events over the lifetime of the volcano. Evidences such as xenocrystic high Al+Ti clinopyrox...

From Traditional to Digital Environment: An Analysis of the Evolution of Business Models and New Marketing Strategies

This paper analyzes the major trends in the business environment that shaped the business models adopted by companies and their new marketing strategies. It adopts a desktop research methodology by collecting data from previous academic papers, statistical, and analytical reports. It starts by analyzing the globalization trend that forced most of the emerging economies to liberalize and privati...

Introduction to Schramm-Loewner evolution and its application to critical systems

In this short review we look at recent advances in Schramm-Loewner Evolution (SLE) theory and its application to critical phenomena. The application of SLE goes beyond critical systems to other time dependent, scale invariant phenomena such as turbulence, sand-piles and watersheds. Through the use of SLE, the evolution of conformally invariant paths on the complex plane can be followed; hence a...
