Extended Data Fig. 10. The Fagradalsfjall gas signature in a global context.

Extended Data Fig. 10

Time-averaged volcanic gas CO2/S ratios versus mean whole-rock Sr/Sm and Sr/Nd ratios for a global population of plume-related (MOR and intraplate) and continental rift volcanoes61, and for Fagradalsfjall (this study; Supplementary Tables 3 and 12). The gas/trace element composition of the Depleted MORB Mantle (DMM) is from ref. 61. These correlations are evidence for that closed-system degassing behavior has prevailed until shallow magmatic levels, and that the volcanic gas CO2/S ratio can thus be used to infer the parental melt CO2 concentration.
