Transactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2020 Comparison of the Meso-Neoarchean crustal evolution of the Bundelkhand, Aravalli, Western and Eastern Dharwar Cratons shows that geodynamic mechanisms, similar to modern plate-tectonic and mantle-plume mechanisms, were active in that period.

Crustal Groundwater Volumes Greater Than Previously Thought
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Global groundwater volumes in the upper 2 km of the Earth's continental crust—critical for water security—are well estimated. Beyond these depths, a vast body of largely saline and non‐potable groundwater exists down to at least 10 km—a volume that has ...

Komatiites From Mantle Transition Zone Plumes
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 During the Archean, episodic volcanism commonly included both plume- and arc-type magmatism, raising the issue of a possible link between “bottom up” and “top down” geodynamic processes.

Convective Self‐Compression of Cratons and the Stabilization of Old Lithosphere
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Despite being exposed to convective stresses for much of the Earth's history, cratonic roots appear capable of resisting mantle shearing. This tectonic stability can be attributed to the neutral density and higher strength of cratons. However, the excess

Seismological structure of the 1.8 Ga Trans-Hudson Orogen of North America [PDF]
, 2016 Precambrian tectonic processes are debated: what was the nature and scale of orogenic events on the younger, hotter, and more ductile Earth? Northern Hudson Bay records the Paleoproterozoic collision between the Western Churchill and Superior plates—the ∼
