Collaborative Research: Volcanic Eruptions on the Galapagos Spreading Center: Effect of Variable Magma Supply on Eruption and Magma Chamber Processes on Mid-Ocean Ridges

该项目将使用ALVIN潜水器和自主式潜水器SENTRY在中间扩张加拉帕戈斯扩张中心获取轴上和轴外样本，以研究可变岩浆供应对中间扩张加拉帕戈斯扩张中心火山过程的影响。该项目将获得关于岩浆供应、岩浆房性质和过程、喷发动力学和这一中间扩张的洋中脊火山地貌发展之间关系的重要新制约因素。

The project will use the submersible ALVIN and the AUV SENTRY to obtain samples on-and off-axis at the intermediate-spreading Galapagos Spreading Center to study the effects of variable magma supply on volcanic processes at the intermediate-spreading Galapagos Spreading Center. The project will obtain important new constraints on the relationships between magma supply, magma chamber properties and processes, eruption dynamics and the development of volcanic landforms at this intermediate-spreading mid-ocean ridge.
