[Auszug] The 230Th-238U disequilibrium system is a useful tool for studying sources and processes involved in recent volcanism because it can provide a direct measure of an important geochemical characteristic of the source, the Th/U ratio7,10. Unlike other isotopic tracers such as 87Sr/86Sr, 143Nd/144Nd, ...
