A database of detrital zircon U–Pb ages in the North China Craton from the Paleoproterozoic to the early Palaeozoic

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal
U–Pb dating of detrital zircon is widely used in geology to identify the source of sediments and constrain palaeogeography and tectonic history. We collected the detrital zircon from the Paleoproterozoic to early Palaeozoic strata to understand the North

Early Cenozoic drainage evolution in the Jianghan Basin: Constraints from detrital zircon U-Pb ages of surface rivers and cores in the basin

open access: yes地质科技通报, 2023
Objective The evolution of large rivers is closely linked to the interactions between tectonic and climatic processes. Understanding the evolutionary history of these rivers is crucial for uncovering the influence of deep dynamic processes on the Earth's

Thermochronology of the modern Indus River bedload: New insight into the controls on the marine stratigraphic record [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The Indus River is the only major drainage in the western Himalaya and delivers a long geological record of continental erosion to the Arabian Sea, which may be deciphered and used to reconstruct orogenic growth if the modern bedload can be related to ...

Detrital zircon age distributions in Bayes-Hilbert spaces

open access: yesJournal of Geochemical Exploration
A growing number of researchers in the Earth Science community use the information provided by the Usingle bondPb ages of detrital zircon in sedimentary environments, be these modern (sediments) or ancient (sedimentary or metasedimentary rocks). This information is key to understanding detritus's past and present flow on Earth and its attendant ...

Detrital Avalonian zircons in the Laurentian Southern Uplands terrane, Scotland [PDF]

open access: yesGeology, 2003
The Silurian–Ordovician Southern Uplands terrane occupies a key position in the Caledonian orogen, yet its genesis is controversial. Marginal-basin, backarc, and forearc tectonic regimes have all been invoked as operative at the Laurentian margin of the Iapetus Ocean.

Use and abuse of detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology—A case from the Río Orinoco delta, eastern Venezuela

open access: yesGeology, 2018
Advancements in mass spectrometry methods over the past two decades have allowed for rapid measurement of (U-Th)/Pb isotopes for geochronologic applications, a tool that has deeply influenced the way sediment provenance and paleo-tectonic reconstructions

Detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology of sediments from the Okinawa Trough: implications for sedimentary provenance

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
In order to distinguish terrestrial material sources in the Okinawa Trough (OT), this study analyzed four surface sediment samples from the northern, middle, and southern parts of the OT using detrital zircon U-Pb age analysis.

Thermal history of the early Miocene Waitemata Basin and adjacent Waipapa Group, North Island, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Apatite fission track (AFT) and vitrinite reflectance (VR) data for early Miocene outcrops from the Waitemata Basin reveal that the basin sequence was subjected to shallow burial before denudation.

A database of detrital zircon U–Pb ages and Lu–Hf isotope of sediments in the South China Sea

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal
Source‐to‐sink analysis examines the effects of source areas and basin (sink) dynamics on the generation, transport, composition, distribution and deposition of sediment in modern and ancient sedimentary systems.

Local Singularity Spectrum: An Innovative Graphical Approach for Analyzing Detrital Zircon Geochronology Data in Provenance Analysis

open access: yesFractal and Fractional
Detrital zircon geochronology plays a crucial role in provenance analysis, serving as one of the fundamental strategies. The age spectrum of detrital zircons collected from the sedimentary unit of interest is often compared or correlated with that of ...
