Multivariate Statistical Analysis as Applied to the Problems of Uncovering Volcanic Structures and the Evolution of Rift-Zone Volcanism.
Abstract
;Part 1 - Multivariate Statistical Analysis as Applied to the Problem of Uncovering Volcanic Structures: For several geological problems there is considerable interest represented by the detection of a local component along with the regional component and construction of corresponding maps. In this case residual anomalies are assumed to be characterized by essential deviations of initial data from the regional component (from the trend surface) computed at points of sampling. The deviations from the trend surface depend on both the total influence of locally appearing geological factors and the 'noise', the value of autocorrelation in deviations and their relative contributions; Part 2 - Evolution of Rift-Zone Volcanism: The development of rift zones is accompanied by strong manifestations of volcanism. Rift genesis and magma genesis are both conditioned by processes taking place in the upper mantle. New data from the ocean floor permit us to carry out a comparative analysis of the volcanism in continental and oceanic rift zones with the aim of determining similarities of differences in their development.
