Timing of Metamorphism and Deformation in the Neoarchean Quetico Metasedimentary Belt, Superior Craton, Constrained by Garnet Trace‐Element Mapping and Lu–Hf Geochronology

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 265-286, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Quetico subprovince of the Superior Province is among the largest metasedimentary belts globally and provides evidence of tectonic processes at play during the final stages of Archean cratonization. Although previous studies have shown that deformation and metamorphism of the 2.7‐Ga turbiditic protolith resulted in regional subvertical ...

Satellite techniques for determining the geopotential for sea-surface elevations [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
Spaceborne altimetry with measurement accuracies of a few centimeters which has the potential to determine sea surface elevations necessary to compute accurate three-dimensonal geostrophic currents from traditional hydrographic observation is discussed ...

Garnet–Clinopyroxene Double‐Layered Coronae in a Metagabbronorite From the High‐Grade Metamorphic Gföhl Unit, Moldanubian Zone

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 311-336, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates garnet–clinopyroxene double‐layered coronae in a metagabbronorite from the high‐grade metamorphic Gföhl Unit (Bohemian Massif). The coronae formed at the interfaces between relic magmatic orthopyroxene, still preserved in the cores of the coronae, and the plagioclase‐rich rock matrix.

Earth's Lower Mantle Predominated by Ferric Iron‐Rich Bridgmanite Inferred From High Pressure Elasticity Measurements

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The absence of sound‐velocity data spanning the entire lower mantle pressures for (Fe, Al)‐bearing bridgmanite impedes direct comparisons with seismic wave observations, leaving the chemistry of the lower mantle unresolved. The present ultra‐high pressure sound‐velocity measurements of in situ synthesized (Fe, Al)‐bearing bridgmanite up to 130

Layered Seismic Anisotropy and Tectonics of the Anatolian Plate

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Anatolian tectonics are associated with slab retreat in the west and gravitational potential energy and continental collision in the east, leading to westward motion of Anatolia relative to Eurasia, partially accommodated on the North and East Anatolian transform faults.

Impact of Mantle Velocity Uncertainty on Receiver‐Function Imaging of the Transition Zone

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Seismological estimates of the 400‐km and 670‐km mantle discontinuities (d400 and d670) are crucial for understanding the thermochemical structure and dynamics of the mantle transition zone (MTZ). However, artifacts from using ray theory and uncertainties in mantle velocity structure can affect topographic mapping of these boundaries.

Seismic Attenuation Reveals Fault and Forearc Structure Across the Subduction‐Collision Transition in Southern Taiwan

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The Southern Array for the Lithosphere and Uplift of Taiwan Experiment (SALUTE) provides a new window into the subduction‐collision transition zone in southern Taiwan, where the Eurasian Plate‐Luzon Arc convergence drives intense orogeny and crustal deformation. Using dense P‐ and S‐wave spectral amplitude data recorded by SALUTE and a quality
