Earthquakes as Precursors of Ductile Shear Zones in the Dry and Strong Lower Crust [PDF]
The rheology and the conditions for viscous flow of the dry granulite facies lower crust are still poorly understood. Viscous shearing in the dry and strong lower crust commonly localizes in pseudotachylyte veins, but the deformation mechanisms ...

Fluid-induced high-temperature metasomatism at Rundvågshetta in the Lützow-Holm Complex, East Antarctica: Implications for the role of brine during granulite formation [PDF]
We report new petrological, phase equilibria modeling, and fluid inclusion data for pelitic and mafic granulites from Rundvågshetta in the highest-grade region of the Neoproterozoic Lützow-Holm Complex (LHC), East Antarctica, and provide unequivocal ...

APG: An Efficient Software Program for Amp-Pl Thermobarometry Based on Graphical Method [PDF]
Geothermobarometry equations are based on thermodynamic principles and appear in single or multi-variant functions. The number of variants for a specific composition or reaction usually is reduced into 2 involving temperature (T) and pressure (P).

Lithospheric 3D gravity modelling using upper-mantle density constraints: Towards a characterization of the crustal configuration in the North Patagonian Massif area, Argentina [PDF]
The North Patagonian Massif is an Argentinean plateau that has an average height of 1200 m and stands from 500 to 700 m above the neighboring areas. During Paleogene, it suffered a sudden uplift of more than 1200 m without noticeable internal deformation;

Rapid cooling and exhumation as a consequence of extension and crustal thinning:Inferences from the late Miocene to Pliocene Palu Metamorphic Complex, Sulawesi, Indonesia [PDF]
Metamorphic complexes forming high mountains of 1.5–2 km in Western Sulawesi were previously considered to be Mesozoic or older basement of Gondwana crust. However, many of the metamorphic rocks are much younger than previously thought.
