Stable oxygen and carbon isotope compositional fields for skeletal and diagenetic components in New Zealand Cenozoic nontropical carbonate sediments and limestones: A synthesis and review [PDF]
The stable oxygen isotope composition (δ18O) of a precipitated carbonate depends mainly on the isotope composition, salinity, and temperature of the host fluid, whereas the stable carbon isotope composition (δ13C) reflects the source of CO2 for ...

In the peralumineous granite of Yajiangqiao zircon population can be divided into two groups (i.e. Zircon I and Zircon II), which were formed in magmatic chamber and in emplacement place, respectively. The Hf isotope compositions of two stages of zircon show that the host magma was essentially derived from crustal material by melting.

Collisional granites of the Araçuaí Orogen, southeastern Brazil, record petrological and geochronological evidence for multiple crustal melting during the orogeny evolution. U-Pb zircon data indicate that these granites crystallized at 586 ± 2 M.y.

The effect of sediment recycling in subduction zones on the Hf isotope character of new arc crust, Banda arc, Indonesia [PDF]
A large portion of Earth's crust is formed at convergent plate boundaries that are accompanied by the subduction of sediments that can contain evolved crust-derived detritus.

Hf isotopic compositions of the Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project Core and the source mineralogy of Hawaiian basalts [PDF]
A large suite of Mauna Kea basalts from the Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project core show a progressive enrichment in radiogenic Hf with time (ϵHf = +11.4 to +13.1) well‐correlated with the increasingly radiogenic character of Nd. The alkali basalts erupted at the termination of the Mauna Kea stage are isotopically indistinguishable from the underlying ...

The continental record and the generation of continental crust [PDF]
Continental crust is the archive of Earth history. The spatial and temporal distribution of Earth's record of rock units and events is heterogeneous; for example, ages of igneous crystallization, metamorphism, continental margins, mineralization, and ...

The isotopic composition of methane in the stratosphere : high-altitude balloon sample measurements [PDF]
The isotopic composition of stratospheric methane has been determined on a large suite of air samples from stratospheric balloon flights covering subtropical to polar latitudes and a time period of 16 yr.

The Hawaiian‐Emperor chain is the ∼6,000 km long surface expression of the deeply sourced Hawaiian mantle plume active over the past ∼81 Myr. The Hawaiian Islands (81–47 Ma) show only Kea compositions.

: The Truong Son Fold Belt, located at the northeastern margin of the Indochina Block, is considered to be tectonically linked to the subduction of the Paleotethys Ocean and subsequent collision. Sepon is one of the most important super large deposits of

The Variscan orogeny was responsible for the formation of a significant volume of igneous basement throughout present-day Europe. Detailed understanding of these rocks has, however, been obfuscated by significant overprinting during younger geologic ...
