Our new study is out in Scientific Reports!
@natureportfolio.nature.com
. We use cluster analysis to reveal how the mantle source beneath the Afar Rift (Ethiopia) evolved during continental rifting.

Cluster analysis reveals increasing plume-like magmatism during progressive rifting in Afar (Ethiopia) - Scientific Reports
Reconstructing chemical variations of magma during rifting is challenging due to the heterogeneous mantle sources of the melt and different evolution pathways that magma potentially takes. Therefore, ...

Following the
#HayliGubbi
eruption, our paper on the Erta Ale dike of Jun-Jul is finally out. InSAR, optical data and seismicity showed the temporal evolution of the intrusion and the interaction of magmatic sources, including a sill inflation in Hayli Gubbi.

Frontiers | Segmented dike intrusion linked to multi-level magma storage during and before the 2025 eruption at Erta Ale (East Africa)
IntroductionDike intrusions can assist continental rifting and plate divergence. However, our understanding of the magma dynamics during diking and the archi...

Cross-scale strain analysis in the Afar rift (East Africa) from automatic fault mapping and geodesy
Abstract. The formation of continental rift systems is characterised by the interplay of magmatic and tectonic processes. Their evolution involves a wide range of timescales, from centennial scales of...
