Mantle and Lower Crust Exposed in Oceanic Ridges and in Ophiolites Contributions to a Specialized Symposium of the VII EUG Meeting, Strasbourg, Spring 1993

This volume follows a Specialized Symposium on "Mantle denudation in slow spreading ridges and in ophiolites", held at the XII EUG Meeting in Strasbourg, spring 1993. During the meeting it was felt that the contribu­ tions to the Symposium justified a volume presenting its main scientific...
