Redox behavior of degassing magmas: critical review and comparison of glass-based oxybarometers with application to Etna volcano by Moretti, Roberto

“…Dehydration determines a slight iron oxidation down to around 2.5 wt% in dissolved water, but further dehydration taking place up to the surface results in iron reduction. This dual behavior, related to a change of trivalent iron speciation, is reproduced by reactive ionic-polymeric approaches and for the Etna basalt it is predicted also for constant $f\mathrm{O}_{2}$. …”
