A geochemical study of magmatism associated with the initial stages of back-arc spreading
Read more of: A geochemical study of magmatism associated with the initial stages of back-arc spreadingBransfield Strait is a narrow basin separating the South Shetland Islands from the Antarctic Peninsula and is attributed to recent back-arc extension behind the South Shetland volcanic arc. The volcanic […]
