Springer Physical Geology of Shallow Magmatic Systems - Springer

Physical Geology of Shallow Magmatic Systems by Springer is the first comprehensive summary of how dykes, sills and laccoliths form and develop. This advanced volcanology reference brings together multidisciplinary contributions spanning tectonics, geophysics and computational modelling to explain shallow magmatic processes. The book presents detailed case studies across various shallow magmatic systems worldwide, making it essential for geologists, researchers and advanced students studying igneous petrology and volcanic geology. Over 200 illustrations support the technical content, whilst online supplementary materials including additional tables, figures, maps and videos extend learning beyond the printed text. This authoritative volume integrates field observations with theoretical frameworks to provide practical understanding of shallow magma emplacement mechanisms.
