Axes are labelled with depth and distance in kilometres. Colours show the 36volume fraction of magma present; solid streamlines show the mantle flow; dashed contours 37are lines of constant temperature (the upper surface is cold, the deep mantle is hot); 38tracer particles mark the motion of the magma, where it is present. The upper panel has a 39plate speed of 1 cm/year; the bottom has 5 cm/year. Mid-ocean ridges host 80% of Earth’s 40volcanism. These simulation are PETSc-based numerical solutions of conservation of mass, 41momentum, and energy for two phases (mantle rock; magma) and two thermochemical 42components. 43 44- [Fokker-Planck kinetic calculation of the parallel current in the W7-X fusion experiment 45 in Greifswald, Germany.

In one case we have a slower 73deformation rate and a steeper initial slope whereas on the other case tectonic 74deformation is an order of magnitude faster. The resulting folding patterns have some 75resemblance with natural folding patterns observed in the Zagros Mountains. From the paper 76Collignon, M., Kaus, B., May, D.A., Fernandez, N., 2014.
