Azizabad-Hazarkhani granitoid, NE of Songhor: Evidence of a subduction event in the N- Sanandaj-Sirjan continental arc [PDF]
The study area is located in the SaSZ, NE of Songhor city, Kermanshah Province. Based on field observations and mineralogical data, the Azizabad-Hazarkhani I-type calc-alkaline granitoid consists of granites, monzonites and diorites with small volumes of

ABSTRACT Permafrost is rapidly degrading in the sporadic zone, including palsa mires in Scandinavia. Peatlands in the area have likely accumulated heavy metals from atmospheric deposition of industrial contaminants in the wider region. As the palsa mire chemical composition is not well known, and in other permafrost regions the permafrost thaw may ...

Boninite and Harzburgite from Leg 125 (Bonin-Mariana Forearc): A Case Study of Magma Genesis during the Initial Stages of Subduction [PDF]
Holes drilled into the volcanic and ultrabasic basement of the Izu-Ogasawara and Mariana forearc terranes during Leg 125 provide data on some of the earliest lithosphere created after the start of Eocene subduction in the Western Pacific.

Abstract The Arctic warms faster than anywhere else on Earth, and paleoclimate data are key to placing this amplified response in a long‐term context. But most past temperature proxies record growing season conditions, when their biological signal carriers are produced.

Gravity study of the amphibolite syncline in Nagu, SW-Finland [PDF]
A gravity survey of the amphibolite syncline in Nagu, SW Finland was performed. The positive gravity anomaly obtained was interpreted by computing two-dimensional models for different cross-sections of the syncline.

Abstract After assembly, supercontinents are shaped by internal rifting and peripheral subduction. However, the geodynamic relationship between these two processes and their respective contributions to supercontinent breakup remain poorly understood.

Precambrian crustal evolution and Cretaceous–Palaeogene faulting in West Greenland: Magnetic anomalies and metamorphic boundaries in the southern Nagssugtoqidian orogen, West Greenland [PDF]
Within the southern Nagssugtoqidian orogen in West Greenland metamorphic terrains of both Archaean and Palaeoproterozoic ages occur with metamorphic grade varying from low amphibolites facies to granulite facies. The determination of the relative ages of

Influence of Inherited Rifted Margin Architecture on Continental Collision Dynamics
Abstract Continental collision is a key process in lithospheric evolution, driving mountain building, crustal thickening, and supercontinent assembly. Within the Wilson cycle, collision marks the final stage following rifting, ocean spreading, and subduction.
