The Geologic History of the Chehalis Forearc Basin, Washington State, USA

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The Chehalis basin is located between the Cascade arc and the Coast Range in southwest Washington State. It consists of sedimentary and volcanic rocks deposited throughout the Cenozoic and is underlain by the Siletzia terrane, a thick, large igneous province accreted in the Eocene.

Palaeowinds and depositional conditions from Holocene loess in Sweden and Finland

Boreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 808-834, July 2026.
The nature of deglacial and Holocene wind regimes in Fennoscandia is debated, as is the degree to which wind‐blown loess deposits exist in the region. Loess deposits in Fennoscandia are often relatively thin, discontinuous and less well‐sorted than typical loess, and questions remain over the degree of their post‐depositional reworking and the impact ...

Sedimentary record of Jurassic northward subduction of the Bangong–Nujiang Ocean: insights from detrital zircons

, 2016
The subduction polarity and related arc–magmatic evolutional history of the Bangong–Nujiang Ocean, which separated the South Qiangtang terrane to the north from the North Lhasa terrane to the south during the Mesozoic, remain debated. This study tries to

From subduction to collision in the northern Tibetan plateau : evidence from the early Silurian clastic rocks, northwestern China [PDF]

, 2012
The Qilian Orogen records early Paleozoic collisional suturing of the Qaidam Block and the Central Qilian Block to the North China Craton. The composition and U-Pb age of detrital zircons and the composition of Cr-spinels from the Early Silurian ...

Re-discussion on the detrital zircon provenance of the lower Yanchang Formation in the southern Ordos Basin

Open Geosciences, 2016
The Ordos Basin is the second largest sedimentary basin in China. The Yanchang Formation is the key oilbearing layer in the Ordos Basin. The stratigraphic time interval and the stratigraphic division of the Yanchang Formation has been highly debated with

Variable Sr Diffusion and Implications for Rb–Sr Biotite Geochronology

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 417-439, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The rubidium–strontium (Rb–Sr) system has a long pedigree as a geochronological tool that relies on the application of an isochron approach. In particular, biotite contains strongly radiogenic Rb–Sr isotopes, and thus can yield meaningful crystallisation or cooling ages via this approach. However, the response of the Rb–Sr system in biotite to

Hyperspectral Fingerprinting of Dune Sediments Across the Arabian Peninsula: Insights Into Sediment Provenance and Transport Pathways From NASA's EMIT Data

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract The Arabian Peninsula encompasses one of the world's most extensive aeolian systems, yet the provenance and transport history of its dune sediments are not well understood. Using hyperspectral data from NASA's Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT), we mapped mineral compositions and abundance patterns across dune fields and ...

Paleomagnetic Evidence of Internal Rotation in the Eastern Qiangtang and Its Relation to Distributed Strike‐Slip Faulting in the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The southeastern Tibetan Plateau has undergone complex deformation due to the India‐Eurasia collision. Although late‐stage internal rotations are documented in the Lanping‐Simao Terrane to the south, it remains unclear whether similar processes have affected the north.

Late Carboniferous Paleomagnetism From North Qiangtang Block Reveals a Multibranched Paleo‐Tethys Ocean

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The North Qiangtang Block occupies a pivotal position within the eastern Tethyan realm, and its paleogeographic reconstruction is critical for constraining Tethyan geometry and evolution. However, its Late Paleozoic paleogeography and Paleo‐Tethyan Ocean–continent configuration remain controversial due to limited reliable age‐constrained ...
