Large igneous provinces are voluminous (> 0.1 Mkm 3 ( = 10 6 km 3 ); frequently above 1 Mkm 3 ), mainly mafic (ultramafic) magmatic events of intraplate affinity (based on tectonic setting and/or geochemistry) that occur in both continental and oceanic settings, are often linked with mantle plumes, and are typically emplaced over a short time period ( < 5 myr; often < 2 myr) or in multiple short pulses with a maximum duration of a few tens of myr (e.g.,
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
