De Vivo B., Bodnar R.J. (Eds.) Melt Inclusions in Volcanic Systems: Methods, Applications and Problems

Elsevier Science, 2003, 258 pages, ISBN: 0444511512Melt inclusions provide a unique record of the physical and chemical processes operating in active magma chambers associated with volcanic systems. This book includes a summary of modern techniques used to study and interpret melt inclusions in volcanic rocks, as well as descriptive studies of specific volcanoes. These various studies document the enormous potential for melt inclusions to provide a window into the dynamics of active magma chambers.
'Melt Inclusions in Volcanic Systems' gives the most up-to-date summary of research on the application of melt inclusions in studies of active and fossil volcanic systems, as well as suggestions for future research in this area.Significance of melt inclusions
