Thermochemical Structure of the Superior Craton and Environs: Implications for the Evolution and Preservation of Cratonic Lithosphere

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The Archean Superior craton was formed by the assemblage of continental and oceanic terranes at ∼2.6 Ga. The craton is surrounded by multiple Proterozoic mobile belts, including the Paleoproterozoic Trans‐Hudson Orogen which brought together the Superior

Timing of uplift and evolution of the Lüliang Mountains, North China Craton [PDF]

, 2016
This study analyses evidence for reformed basin development and basin-mountain coupling associated with development of the Ordos Basin and the Lüliang Mountains, China. Gaining an improved understanding of the timing and nature of uplift and evolution of

Characteristics of Terrestrial Heat Flow and Lithospheric Thermal Structure in Typical Intermountain Basin at the Eastern Foot of Yanshan Mountain, North China

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Yanshan area is rich in geothermal resources. However, limited research has been done on the geothermal resources of intermountain basins in the area, which restrict the exploration and development of geothermal resources.

Peixe Zircon as a Quality Control Reference Material in U‐Pb Geochronology by LA‐ICP‐MS

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 369-389, June 2026.
Key Points Peixe#0 zircon was characterised for U‐Pb geochronology using CA‐ID‐TIMS, SIMS and a long‐term LA‐ICP‐MS data set. The consistent results establish Peixe#0 as a reference material for U‐Pb quality control. Trace element heterogeneity requires careful, CL‐guided spot selection.

Crustal Responses to the Destruction of Continental Lithosphere: Insights From Radial Anisotropy of the Tanlu Fault Zone, Eastern China

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Since the Mesozoic, much of the eastern China lithosphere was removed through thermo‐mechanical erosion and delamination, yet the effects on the overlying crust remain unclear. The Tanlu Fault Zone (TLFZ), the region's largest lithosphere‐scale weakness, offers a natural laboratory to assess crustal responses to lithospheric destruction.

Seismic Imaging Reveals Ongoing Modification of Craton Margins in Northeast Asia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Cratonic margins are commonly modified, yet the processes responsible remain debated. The Korean Peninsula, situated between adjacent cratons, the Japan Trench, and a back‐arc system, provides a natural setting to investigate this problem. Using 4 years of dense seismic observations, we image upper‐mantle structure beneath the peninsula with P‐

Generation of the Early Cretaceous granitoid in the Dazeshan region, Jiaodong Peninsula: Implications for the crustal reworking in the North China Craton

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Lower crust-derived granitic rocks provide constraints on the crustal reworking process and consequently give hints on the destruction mechanism of the cratons. The North China Craton (NCC) underwent extensive crustal melting in the Mesozoic.

Opportunities for targeted, small‐scale law reform in marine and coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue S1, May 2026.
Across the globe, law reform is being considered as a mechanism to support, guide, and encourage the upscaling of ecological restoration. While high‐profile examples like the European Nature Restoration Law show the value of large‐scale law reform, this scale of law reform will not be feasible or politically tractable everywhere.
