In this seminar I explore contemporary understanding of silicic magmatic systems with a focus of the formation of large silicic magma chambers that are capable of large magnitude explosive eruptions. I discuss silicic melt generation in the middle and lower crust, melt segregation, magma transport and mechanisms of forming magma chambers and triggering of major eruptions.
