Correction of broadband snow albedo measurements affected by unknown slope and sensor tilts [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2016
Geometric effects induced by the underlying terrain slope or by tilt errors of the radiation sensors lead to an erroneous measurement of snow or ice albedo. Consequently, artificial diurnal albedo variations in the order of 1–20 % are observed. The

The Piedmont Zone From the Western Alps (Italy): New Insights From High‐Pressure Ophiolitic Metasediments in the Soana Valley

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metaophiolites and metasediments of the Piedmont Zone are exposed in the Soana Valley, a poorly studied area of the Western Alps, located between the Europe‐related Gran Paradiso massif and the Adria‐related Sesia–Lanzo zone. Previous investigations reported the occurrence of only greenschist‐facies metamorphic assemblages in the metasediments.

Post-collisional Tertiary–Quaternary mafic alkalic magmatism in the Carpathian–Pannonian region: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Mafic alkalic volcanism was widespread in the Carpathian–Pannonian region (CPR) between 11 and 0.2 Ma. It followed the Miocene continental collision of the Alcapa and Tisia blocks with the European plate, as subduction-related calc-alkaline magmatism was

The Benefits of Using a Consistent Tangent Operator for Viscoelastoplastic Computations in Geodynamics

open access: yesGeochemistry Geophysics Geosystems, 2018
Strain localization is ubiquitous in geodynamics and occurs at all scales within the lithosphere. How the lithosphere accommodates deformation controls, for example, the structure of orogenic belts and the architecture of rifted margins.

Rock‐buffered versus fluid‐buffered geochemistry of structurally controlled, hydrothermal dolomite: Insights from the Sichuan Basin, China

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Structurally controlled hydrothermal dolomitization, commonly driven by high‐pressure, high‐temperature fluid–rock reactions, offers insights into the tectonic evolution of sedimentary basins and the geochemical composition of their diagenetic fluids.

Precise OBS location at the sea bottom in active seismic profiles using the air gun shot records [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Norcaribe campaign, in November – December 2013, funded by Spanish Ministry of Innovation and Science (Norcaribe Project CGL2010-17715), was performed on board of the Spanish research vessel “Sarmiento de Gamboa” around the Hispaniola island, also

Application of the Allan Variance to Time Series Analysis in Astrometry and Geodesy: A Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Allan variance (AVAR) was introduced 50 years ago as a statistical tool for assessing of the frequency standards deviations. For the past decades, AVAR has increasingly being used in geodesy and astrometry to assess the noise characteristics in ...

Sedimentary record of submarine gravity‐flow events in the southern Ryukyu forearc during the last 200 000 years: archive of mega‐earthquakes and tsunamis

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite high convergence velocity, the southern Ryukyu subduction has relatively low and sparse instrumental seismicity, in contrast with the Yaeyama Islands, hit by huge tsunamis over the last few thousand years. This study explores the potential of deep marine sediments to record past large earthquakes and tsunamis.

Cryogenian Glacial Erosion and Tectonics as Agents of Crustal Recycling

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Zircon preserves evidence of recycling processes that link surface environments to the mantle. Combined δ18O‐εHf in zircon fingerprints magmatic sources and tracks how crustal material is reworked over time. We apply statistical analyses to a global compilation that apparently resolves shifts in zircon U–Pb, δ18O, and Lu‐Hf data spanning the ...

Early earth geodynamics: cross examining the geological testimony

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2018
Many studies link the presence of continents on Earth to the operation of plate tectonics. Radiogenic isotope data have, however, long consigned the bulk of crust generation and preservation to the murky realm of the Precambrian Earth, where the ...
