Provenance and Paleogeography of the 25-17 Ma Rainbow Gardens Formation: Evidence for Tectonic Activity at Ca. 19 Ma and Internal Drainage rather than Throughgoing Paleorivers on the Southwestern Colorado Plateau [PDF]
The paleogeographic evolution of the Lake Mead region of southern Nevada and northwest Arizona is crucial to understanding the geologic history of the U.S. Southwest, including the evolution of the Colorado Plateau and formation of the Grand Canyon.

ABSTRACT The Carboniferous‐Permian Tarija basin of southern Bolivia evolved under major tectonic and climatic influence. The timing of transition from glacially influenced to arid conditions, after the Gondwanide tectonic event, has been based mainly on palynological correlations.

Precambrian crustal evolution and Cretaceous–Palaeogene faulting in West Greenland: Zircon geochronology from the Kangaatsiaq–Qasigiannguit region, the northern part of the 1.9–1.8 Ga Nagssugtoqidian orogen, West Greenland [PDF]
The Kangaatsiaq–Qasigiannguit region in the northern part of the Palaeoproterozoic Nagssugtoqidian orogen of West Greenland consists of poly-deformed orthogneisses and minor occurrences of interleaved, discontinuous supracrustal belts. Laser ablation ICP-

P‐T‐t‐d Evolution of Low‐Grade Metamorphic Xenotime, Eastern Alps (Austria)
ABSTRACT In situ LA‐ICP‐MS U‐Pb dating of xenotime was used to establish the age of low‐grade metamorphism in Permian metasediments of the Austroalpine Unit (Eastern Alps, Austria). Complexly zoned xenotime in chloritoid‐bearing metasedimentary samples possesses distinct MREE‐rich domains. In the eastern sample, this domain yielded a date of c. 135 Ma,

Enhanced U-Pb detrital zircon, Lu-Hf zircon, δ18O zircon, and Sm-Nd whole rock global databases
AbstractHigh-quality global isotopic databases provide Earth scientists with robust means for developing and testing a variety of geological hypotheses. Database design establishes the range of questions that can be addressed, and validation techniques can enhance data quality.

L'unité de la Boghen (Nouvelle-Calédonie, Pacifique SW): un complexe d'accrétion jurassique. Données radiochronologiques préliminaires U-Pb sur les zircons détritiques. [PDF]
La datation des zircons détritiques de l'unité de la Boghen permet d'attribuer un âge post-liasique à cet ensemble, autrefois considéré comme le " socle anté-permien " de la Nouvelle-Calédonie.

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