Ductile Extrusion Triggered by Continental Collision in NE Brazil

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Borborema Province in northeastern Brazil hosts one of the world's largest strike‐slip shear zone networks, active during the late Neoproterozoic assembly of West Gondwana. Whether these shear zones initiated during active continental collision or as a post‐orogenic response to far‐field stresses remains debated.

Middle pleistocene glaciation in Patagonia dated by cosmogenic-nuclide measurements on outwash gravels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The well-preserved glacial record in Argentine Patagonia offers a ~ 1 Ma archive of terrestrial climate extremes in southern South America. These glacial deposits remain largely undated beyond the range of radiocarbon dating at ca. 40 ka.

How large are departures from lithostatic pressure? Constraints from host-inclusion elasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Minerals trapped as inclusions within other host minerals will develop non-lithostatic pressures during both prograde and retrograde metamorphism because of the differences between the thermo-elastic properties of the host and inclusion phases.
