It provides interpretations of the tectonic and magmatic evolution of Santorini. The volcanic field has been remapped and a picture of cyclic volcanic activity and magmatic evolution has emerged from this work.

Addressing a variety of approaches to these topics, this book offers researchers and academics in the Earth Science fields, such as geophysics, volcanology and igneous petrology the information they need to apply the information to their ...

Throughout the book, significant attention is devoted to quantifying the sources of uncertainty affecting the forecast estimates.

This book gives a description of these various processes and aligns them with what is known globally and provides geoscientists with a better understanding of the regional context of the calderas in the Mexican Volcanic Belt.
