“…This is clearly indicated by the petrology and geochemistry of magmas from monogenetic eruptions, which evidence certain degree of differentiation in most cases and occasional assimilation of crustal rocks that occurred at different depths (Thirlwall et al, 2000;Klügel et al, 2005;Stroncik et al, 2009;Valentine and Hirano, 2010;Brenna et al, 2011;Rowe et al, 2011;Hernando et al, 2014;Albert et al, 2015Albert et al, , 2016Klugel et al, 2015). These intermediate reservoir zones, which will normally be located at rheological or structural discontinuities inside the lithosphere, do not need to be stable or permanent along the whole history of the volcanic field.…”

The factors controlling the preparation of volcanic eruptions in monogenetic fields are still poorly understood. The fact that in monogenetic volcanism each eruption has a different vent suggests that volcanic susceptibility has a high degree of randomness, so that accurate forecasting is subjected to a very high uncertainty. Recent studies on monogenetic volcanism reveal how sensitive magma migration is to the existence of changes in the stress field caused by regional and/or local tectonics or rheological contrasts (stratigraphic discontinuities). These stress variations may induce changes in the pattern of further movements of magma, thus conditioning the location of future eruptions. This implies that a precise knowledge of the stress configuration and distribution of rheological and structural discontinuities at crustal level of such volcanic systems would aid in forecasting monogenetic volcanism. This contribution reviews several basic concepts relative to the stress controls of magma transport into the brittle lithosphere, and uses this information to explain how magma migrates inside monogenetic volcanic systems and how it prepares to trigger a new eruption.

“…The majority of xenoliths are from the areas of Volcán Pericutin (McBirney et al, 1987;Rowe et al, 2011) and a few from Volcán Colima (Valdez-Moreno et al, 2006). The xenoliths of Paricutin are fragments of siliceous igneous rocks, with granite, granodiorite, and quartz monzonite being most common.…”

“…Sphene, zircon, and apatite are the common accessory minerals in these xenoliths (McBirney et al, 1987). The chemical composition of these xenoliths indicates a depletion in high field strength elements (HFSE) and enrichment in large-ion lithophile elements (LILE) relative to the whole-rock lava composition (Rowe et al, 2011). The xenoliths from volcano Colima are gabbroic and granitoid xenoliths found in prehistorical lava flows and are considered to be representative of the basement beneath Colima volcano (Valdez-Moreno et al, 2006).…”

“…In particular, it allows the tracking of changes in melt composition as magma crystallizes at shallow levels (Cervantes & Wallace 2003a, b;Rowe et al 2011a, b). In Mexico, few studies have documented pre-eruptive volatile contents in melts from monogenetic eruptive products, and these studies have focused primarily on volcanoes from the Michoacán -Guanajuato volcanic field (MGVF; Luhr 2001;Pioli et al 2008;Johnson et al 2008Johnson et al , 2009Johnson et al , 2010Rowe et al 2011a) with only one study in the SCVF (Xitle; Cervantes & Wallace 2003a, b). This work provides the first pre-eruptive volatile data (H 2 O, CO 2 , S and Cl) for melts from Pelagatos volcano.…”

Eruptions and magma evolution of monogenetic volcanoes are thought to be controlled by rapid ascent of magmas over a short period of time. Volatiles degassing from magmas control the ascent velocity and therefore eruption intensity. Complex feedbacks exist between the rate and extent of volatile exsolution at shallow levels and groundmass crystallization, affecting the magma rheology, extent of fragmentation, resulting eruptive style and related hazards. Melt inclusions record the volatile contents and compositions of melts at various stages during their evolution, providing insights into degassing–crystallization processes at shallow crustal levels. Here we present new volatile and major element data from olivine-hosted melt inclusions from Pelagatos scoria cone, Mexico. These new data, combined with recent geochemical and textural data on Pelagatos eruptive products, allow us to propose a model for shallow magmatic processes at this volcano. Discharge of volatile-poor, low-viscosity magma drives early effusive activity along the fissure. Decreasing magma fluxes lead to the clogging of the fissure and the formation of a shallow magma reservoir where degassing and fractional crystallization take place. Subsequent explosive cone-forming activity is triggered by influx of deeper (c. 5 km), less evolved, more volatile-rich magma into this shallow (c. 1 km) reservoir.Supplementary material:new whole rock and matrix glass date are available at www.geolsoc.org.uk/SUP18782.
