Heat transfer from a convecting crystallizing, replenished magmatic sill and its link to seafloor hydrothermal heat output
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010-11-15)
Hydrothermal systems at oceanic spreading centers play an important role in the composition of seawater, the formation of ore deposits, the support of microbial and macrofaunal ecosystems, and even for the development of ...
The link between convection and crystallization in a sub-axial magma chamber and heat output in a seafloor hydrothermal system
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-07-10)
In this thesis, I present a simple time-dependent model of heat transfer between a turbulently convecting and crystallizing magma body and the overlying hydrothermal circulation. Most of the known seafloor hydrothermal ...
