Tracing Continental Basalt Sources and Mantle Processes Using Fe Stable Isotopes

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Iron (Fe) isotopes have emerged as powerful tracers of mantle source heterogeneity and melting processes, yet the mechanisms producing heavy Fe isotope signatures (high δ57Fe values) in intraplate basalts remain debated. Competing interpretations include partial melting of recycled pyroxenite domains versus carbonate‐induced oxidation of a ...

Petrogenesis and Tectonic Evolution of Cenozoic Magmatism in the Southernmost Northern Andes: Insights From Zircon Petrochronology

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This study integrates new zircon U–Pb ages, zircon εHf(t)–δ18O isotopic data, and whole‐rock geochemistry to refine the temporal and spatial framework of magmatism in the southern Northern Andes (SNA) from ∼65 to 6 Ma. The San Lucas, Catamayo, Portachuela, and Gonzanamá batholiths and magmatic suites, along with Late Miocene plutons, display ...

Long‐Distance Aeolian Dust Deposited on the Island of Crete (Greece): Detection, Characterization, and Provenance

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Long‐distance aeolian dust transport represents one of the largest sediment fluxes on Earth, with North Africa being a dominant source. The island of Crete in the Eastern Mediterranean lies within major transport pathways but remains underexplored regarding multi‐proxy fingerprinting of deposited dust.

Eocene to Miocene U‐Pb Geochronology Evolution of the Rio Grande Rise, Southwestern Atlantic: A Paleoceanographic Approach

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Rio Grande Rise (RGR) is a major submarine feature in the South Atlantic that plays an important role in regional oceanographic dynamics. This study presents new U‐Pb geochronology of sedimentary rocks from the RGR, offering direct age constraints on carbonate and apatite embedded within Fe‐Mn crusts and associated foraminifera fossils ...

Paleoseismic Evidence of Recent Co‐Seismic Ruptures in Western Tierra del Fuego, Chile

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Magallanes‐Fagnano fault (MFF) in Tierra del Fuego (TDF) is a major left‐lateral transform boundary between the South American and Scotia plates. While surface ruptures associated with the 1949 earthquakes have been documented in Argentina east of the Fagnano Lake, their extension to the west remained uncertain.

Uplift of the Transantarctic Mountains: Evidence for an Evolving and Long‐Lived Rayleigh‐Taylor Instability

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Rayleigh‐Taylor instabilities within the upper mantle are investigated as a mechanism for the uplift of rift‐margin mountain ranges within the continents. Our focus is on the Transantarctic Mountains (TAM). These mountains form at the margin between East and West Antarctica and have been free from the effects of subduction for about 500 ...

Inversion by Intrusion: Magma‐Driven Shortening in the Turkana Rift (East Africa)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Late Pliocene to Pleistocene inversion in the Turkana Rift, observed on seismic reflection data and in outcrop, presents a tectonic paradox by indicating local shortening in an overall extensional setting. Previous studies attributed this inversion either to the reactivation of obliquely oriented structural weaknesses or to reorientation of ...

Ensemble‐Based Parameter Estimation for an Unconfined Groundwater Model of a Small Island Considering Tidal Overheight

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Tidal influences are rarely considered in parameter estimation procedures for coastal groundwater flow models. Yet, considering tides adds to the already high computational burden associated with such models due to the presence of density‐dependent flow.
