More than 70% of the Earth’s volcanic eruptions occurs at mid-ocean ridge, but because the seafloor is difficult to reach, very little is known about these eruptions. I use geophysical, observational, and geochemical evidence together with theoretical modeling to understand the physics of volcanic processes and learn more about the construction of oceanic crust, timescales of eruptions, and lava transport along and away from the mid-ocean ridge.
