| | | MELTS is a software package designed to model phase (mineral, rock and liquid) relations during melting and crystallization. MELTS can be used to model processes such as partial melting, equilibrium crystallization, fractional crystallization, and assimilation. Users can compute equilibrium phase relations for igneous systems over the temperature range 500-2000 °C and the pressure range 0-2 GPa (0-~65 km; 20 kb). |

| | | a cooperative project between the Smithsonian's Global Volcanism Program and the US Geological Survey's Volcano Hazards Program. This is not a comprehensive list of all of Earth's volcanoes erupting during the week, but rather a summary of activity at volcanoes that meet criteria discussed in detail in the "Criteria and Disclaimers" section. Carefully reviewed, detailed reports on various volcanoes are published monthly in the Bulletin of the Global Volcanism Network. |
