Patterns of Late Cenozoic exhumation deduced from apatite and zircon U-He ages from Fiordland, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
New apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He ages from the Fiordland region of New Zealand's South Island expand on earlier results and provide new constraints on patterns of Late Cenozoic exhumation and cooling across this region.

A Database of Low‐Temperature Thermochronology in East Asia

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal
The low closure temperature of the dating system in low‐temperature thermochronology allows shallow crustal movements to be recorded. In recent decades, this approach has been used extensively in studies of orogenic belt exhumation, sedimentary basin ...

Fission-track data and U–Pb dating of granites from Cameron Highland, Peninsular Malaysia: Evidence to comprehend exhumation episodes

open access: yesData in Brief, 2019
Fission tracks are linear trails of intense radiation damage in the crystal structure of a mineral, produced by spontaneous fissioning of uranium-238 (238U) atoms.

Cenozoic structural deformation in the Yuqia-Jiulongshan region, northern Qaidam Basin, China

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2020
Based on field geological survey, interpretation of seismic reflection profile and thermochronology dating, this paper systematically studied the structural deformation of the Yuqia-Jiulongshan region in northern Qaidam Basin during the Cenozoic.

P–T Modelling Constrains the Depth of Emplacement of the Porto Azzurro Pluton and Implies Minor Exhumation Caused by the Zuccale Fault (Island of Elba, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the pressure of emplacement of granitic intrusions is crucial to understanding the exhumation history of plutons and constraining the tectonic setting of magma emplacement. However, P–T and geochronological constraints from exhumed plutons are often characterized by large uncertainties, especially in shallow crustal settings with

Evolution of the Chos Malal and Agrio fold and thrust belts, Andes of Neuquén: Insights from structural analysis and apatite fission track dating

open access: yes, 2015
The Chos Malal and Agrio fold and thrust belts are located in the western part of the Neuquen basin, an Andean retroarc basin of central-western Argentina.

Persistent topographic development along a strike-slip fault system: The Mount McKinley restraining bend [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The Denali Fault is a major strike-slip fault extending from British Colombia, into western Alaska. Mount McKinley, at 6,114 m, is the highest peak in North America and is located to the south of a bend in the Denali Fault (Fig.1).

Early Cenozoic denudation of central west Britain in response to transient and permanent uplift above a mantle plume [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Upwelling mantle plumes beneath continental crust are predicted to produce difficult to quantify, modest uplift and denudation. The contribution of permanent and transient components to the uplift is also difficult to distinguish.

Eocene Exhumation in the Rena Co Area, Southern Qiangtang Terrane: Constraints on the Extent of the Central Tibetan Valley [PDF]

open access: yesLithosphere
The Qiangtang terrane is located in the central part of the Tibetan Plateau, and reconstructing its uplift and exhumation history is crucial for understanding the Tibetan Plateau’s formation and growth.

Noble gases and nitrogen in material from asteroid Bennu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report the elemental and isotopic abundances of all stable noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon) in eight particles from asteroid Bennu returned by NASA's OSIRIS‐REx mission. We also report nitrogen abundances and isotopic ratios that were analyzed alongside neon and argon in four additional Bennu particles.
