NEW DATA ABOUT AGE AND GEODYNAMIC NATURE OF HAMSARA TERRANE

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2017
On the basis of isotopic-geochemical studies and analysis of geological evidences heterogeneity of Hamsara terrane has been determined. Formation of stationed metamorphosed layers underlying the Hamsara formation occurred not earlier than 630 Ma ...

Integrating whole‐bone and regional analyses to understand human scapular growth

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates ontogenetic changes in human scapular morphology using three‐dimensional geometric morphometrics with whole‐bone and region‐specific analyses. The aim is to evaluate whether the scapula follows a regular developmental pattern and whether its functionally distinct components, the scapular spine (SS) and glenoid fossa ...

Boninites and island arcs

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1983
The petrographic t se rm t o describe glassy volcanic rocks from the Bonin Islands in the Western Pacific has been around for nearly a century. Currently, however, “boninitic” has come to mean a process, and indeed boninites include a broad set of komatiite‐like rocks, which characterize Pacific Island arcs.

Wilson cycle studies [PDF]

open access: yes
Continents originate by the sweeping together of island arcs. Continental and island arc crusts are dominated by rocks of comparable compositional and density ranges, evidence of the operation of this process is abundant in the geological record, and can

Evolutionary radiation of large‐bodied gorgonopsians from the lower Abrahamskraal formation of South Africa

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The middle Permian represents a critical interval in therapsid evolution, when gorgonopsians emerged as some of the first specialized apex predators within terrestrial ecosystems. Despite their significance, the early diversification of Gorgonopsia in Gondwana remains poorly understood due to scarcity and fragmentary material.

Slab steepening and rapid mantle wedge replacement during back-arc rifting in the New Hebrides

open access: yesNature Communications
The effects of the composition and angle of the subducting slab and mantle wedge flow on tectonic and magmatic processes in island arcs and associated back-arcs are poorly understood.

The Devil Is in the Detail: Tasmanian Devil and Tasmanian Tiger Paintings From Awunbarna and Injalak Hill, Northern Territory, Australia

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Both the Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) and the Tasmanian tiger (Thylacinus cynocephalus) are believed to have become extinct on the Australian mainland about 3000 years ago. However, until now there were only 23 known rock art depictions of the Tasmanian devil and about 150 Tasmanian tiger paintings and petroglyphs, mostly at rock art
