Protracted High‐Grade Metamorphism and Slow Cooling in the Adirondacks Recalibrate Neoproterozoic Global Paleogeography

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The assembly and breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia set the stage for Earth system evolution through the Neoproterozoic Era. Laurentia, the central craton in Rodinia, lacks well‐dated paleomagnetic poles between ca. 990 Ma and 780 Ma. In this study, we develop new U‐Pb petrochronology and thermochronology data sets from zircon, garnet ...

Syn‐ to Post‐Collisional Tectonic History of the Paleo‐Tethyan Orogenic Belt: Insights From Triassic Igneous Rocks in the North–Central Tibetan Plateau, China

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The closure of the Paleo‐Tethys Ocean was one of the most important global geological events which formed the framework of the East Asian continent during the early Mesozoic. The Longmu Co‐Shuanghu suture zone is considered to record closure of the main basin of the Paleo‐Tethys Ocean.

Accretionary Prism and Forearc Deformation Driven by the Beata Ridge Indentation in Southern Hispaniola: Insights From the Offshore San Pedro Basin

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The Cretaceous–Eocene island arc of Hispaniola is currently shortened between the Bahamas carbonate platform to the north and the thickened crust of the Caribbean Large Igneous Province (CLIP) to the south. Within this transpressional setting, the 15–22‐km‐thick, ∼100‐km‐wide Beata Ridge (BR), the thickest portion of the CLIP, acts as a ...

Two‐Layer Anisotropy Beneath Subduction Zones: Bayesian Inversion

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Shear‐wave splitting measurements have the potential to constrain multiple layers of anisotropy and thereby enhance depth resolution. Using the formulation of Silver and Savage (1994, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365‐246x.1994.tb04027.x), previous studies have employed deterministic grid‐search approaches to identify best‐fitting two‐layer ...

D‐Rex++: A New Tool to Simulate Olivine's Crystallographic Preferred Orientation in the Upper Mantle With Grain Size‐Coupled Rheology

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Understanding the co‐evolution of olivine's crystallographic preferred orientation (CPO) and grain size is essential for capturing the dynamics of Earth's upper mantle. Existing CPO evolution models, such as D‐Rex, successfully predict CPO development but overpredict CPO strength and do not provide a physically meaningful grain size, limiting ...

Long‐Term Deformation in the Alpine‐Provence Foreland Constrained by In Situ Calcite U‐Pb Dating

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The evolution of the Alpine‐Provence foreland is characterized by multiple deformation phases since the Mesozoic, representing successive compressional and extensional episodes. The precise timing and spatial evolution of these deformation phases remain poorly constrained due to the lack of absolute geochronological data. Here, we present U–Pb

Peixe Zircon as a Quality Control Reference Material in U‐Pb Geochronology by LA‐ICP‐MS

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 369-389, June 2026.
Key Points Peixe#0 zircon was characterised for U‐Pb geochronology using CA‐ID‐TIMS, SIMS and a long‐term LA‐ICP‐MS data set. The consistent results establish Peixe#0 as a reference material for U‐Pb quality control. Trace element heterogeneity requires careful, CL‐guided spot selection.

Jadeite in Continental Subduction: Its Preservation, Breakdown and Pseudomorphic Replacement in Erzgebirge UHP Gneisses

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 5, Page 376-393, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The absence of jadeite in regions where subduction of continental crust has been documented by other high‐pressure (HP) or ultrahigh‐pressure (UHP) minerals is striking. This study presents only the second discovery of jadeite in the crystalline rocks of the Erzgebirge, a region known for its occurrences of microdiamond, coesite and omphacite ...
