Geologist turned lab rat.
Selection criteria was arc lavas with Mg# > 60. So some would be classified as adakites but not all.
Generally just linking a rock classification based on somewhat loose compositional parameters to dynamic processes is bound to be over simplistic.

Widespread slab melting in modern subduction zones
It is still a matter of intense debate to what extent partial melting of the subducting slab contributes to arc magmatism in modern subduction zones. …
