Award Description: Central American Magmatic Volatile Histories as Recorded by Apatite Phenocrysts
Project Description: We are experimentally calibrating and applying apatite volatile barometry (for H, Cl, and F) to four volcanoes in the southern half of the Central American volcanic arc (CAVA). The work will reveal the late stage volatile history of those magmas, which in turn will provide important constraints on pre-eruptive magmatic processes.
