ABSTRACT Auckland Volcanic Field (AVF) is a basaltic intraplate volcanic field in North Island, New Zealand, upon which >1.6 million people live. Seismic velocity tomography and geochemistry suggest a primary mantle source region at a depth of 70–90 km. Geochemical analysis indicates a range of magma compositions, and that melts ascend with little crustal interaction. Eruptions generally began with a phreatomagmatic phase forming maar and tuff rings with tephra fall, base surges, and ballistic…
