A mechanism is examined which allows an intrusive body to melt its way upward in the earth's crust. Due to the increase in melting temperature with depth the melt temperature at the base of an intrusion may be considerably greater than the melt tempe

The Williston Basin is a large, circular, intracratonic basin containing over 4 km of sediments ranging in age from Cambrian to Tertiary. Data on seven formations from over 1300 wells in Montana, South Dakota, and North Dakota were used to determine

The cooling of the oceanic lithosphere causes subsidence by isostasy. This subsidence results in the formation of ocean basins. In this paper we assume that the subsiding lithosphere is covered with sediments. A similarity solution is obtained for th

It is generally accepted that a large fraction of the earth's volcanism is due to pressure release melting of mantle rock in the ascending limbs of mantle convection cells. A problem that remains largely unsolved is the migration of the melt from the
