Gravity field and geothermal structure of the Corsica‐Sardinia Block

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 36, Issue 6, Page 506-515, December 2024.
Abstract This paper presents a finite‐differences 3D numerical model that simulates the gravity and thermal structure of the Corsica‐Sardinia Block (CSB), an apparently stable lithospheric domain characterized by cryptic tectonic activity. In the experiments, we change the density and heat production rate of the model crust within a range of ...

The Nitrogen Budget of Earth

open access: yes, 2015
We comprehensively compile and review N content in geologic materials to calculate a new N budget for Earth. Using analyses of rocks and minerals in conjunction with N-Ar geochemistry demonstrates that the Bulk Silicate Earth (BSE) contains \sim7\pm4 ...

Sediment composition and U–Pb ages of detrital zircons in the Salina Cruz and Puerto Ángel beaches along the Gulf of Tehuantepec, Mexican Pacific

open access: yesGeological Journal, Volume 59, Issue 10, Page 2897-2917, October 2024.
Sediment provenance in the Pacific Coast of Mexico The Salina Cruz and Puerto Ángel beach areas in the Gulf of Tehuantepec, Mexican Pacific coast represent an important economic sector of the region. In this study, the mineralogy and geochemistry of bulk sediments, and geochronology of 400 detrital zircons recovered from the beach sediments were ...

Mineralogical evidence for lamproite magma mixing and storage at mantle depths: Socovos fault lamproites, SE Spain

open access: yesLithos, 2016
Detailed textural and mineral chemistry characterisation of lamproites from the Socovos fault zone, SE Spain Neogene Volcanic Province (NVP) combining X-ray element maps and LA-ICP-MS spot analyses has provided valuable information about mantle depth ultrapotassic magma mixing processes. Despite having similar whole-rock compositions, rocks emplaced in

Identifying Recycled Materials Using Mo Isotopes in Intraplate Alkali Basalts From the Southeastern Margin of Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Mantle heterogeneity in lithology and geochemistry is often attributed to recycled subducted materials. While distinct mantle end‐members are identified by radiogenic isotopes, the specific recycled materials contributing to this heterogeneity remain debated.

The Origin of the Lehmann Discontinuity Beneath the Ancient Craton: Insight From the High Pressure‐Temperature Elasticity Measurements of Topaz

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 17, 16 September 2024.
Abstract In this study, we concentrate on the seismic signature of subducted sediments and suggest the formation of the L‐discontinuity beneath the ancient craton related to migrated sediment dehydration. We first determined the single‐crystal elasticity of topaz, the product of sediment dehydration, at high pressures and temperatures by Brillouin ...
