An Ordovician Assemblage of Cool Water‐Adapted Paleotropical Ostracods Suggests an Early Psychrosphere

Island Arc, Volume 34, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
ABSTRACT An ostracod assemblage from the Late Ordovician (Katian) Phu Ngu Formation of northern Vietnam, South China paleoplate, yields typical Baltic and Laurentian‐affinity genera together with some endemic forms. Detailed paleontological and sedimentary analysis of the Phu Ngu Formation suggests it was deposited in a deeper marine forearc setting ...

The complex governance of protected areas: Insights from geoheritage and geopark management in China

Environmental Policy and Governance, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 679-690, December 2024.
Abstract Geoparks aim to conserve areas of geological significance and achieve sustainable endogenous regional development via geotourism. The management of geoparks requires the involvement of all relevant stakeholders and authorities. However, the strategies when establishing geoparks are often based on the visions of scientists and policymakers ...

Episodic Seafloor Hydrothermal Alteration as a Source of Stable Remagnetizations in Archean Volcanic Rocks

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 25, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Interpreting the paleomagnetic records of altered rocks, especially those from Earth's earliest history, is complicated by metamorphic overprints and recrystallization of ferromagnetic minerals. However, these records may be as valuable as a primary signal if the timing and mechanism of alteration‐related remagnetizations can be ascertained ...

Zircon Xenocrysts From Easter Island (Rapa Nui) Reveal Hotspot Activity Since the Middle Jurassic

AGU Advances, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2024.
Abstract We report the finding of mantle‐derived zircon grains retrieved from red soils, regoliths, and beach sands from Easter Island, that are much older than the island volcanism (0–2.5 Ma) and its underlying lithosphere (Pliocene, 3–4.8 Ma). A large population of 0–165 Ma old zircons have coherent oxygen (δ18O 3.8–5.9‰) and hafnium (εHf(t)+3.5–+12 ...
