Abstract The collisional evolution of the micro‐blocks in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau is relatively well constrained. However, the reason why a fragment of the North China Block, the Olongbuluke Block, became separated from North China by the Central Qilian Block (a fragment of the South China Block) remains unclear.

The stratigraphy, correlation, provenance and palaeogeography of the Skiddaw Group (Ordovician) in the English Lake District [PDF]
A new lithostratigraphy is presented for the Skiddaw Group (lower Ordovician) of the English Lake District. Two stratigraphical belts are described. Five formations are defined in the Northern Fells Belt, ranging in age from Tremadoc to early Llanvirn.

This study reports the first complete mitogenome of the estuarine clam Potamocorbula amurensis, revealing its phylogenetic position as a sister group to the Myidae–Dreissenidae clade. Molecular dating indicates a Middle Jurassic divergence, and positive selection was detected in the nad5 gene, suggesting mitochondrial adaptations to osmotic stress in ...

Late Ordovician zooplankton maps and the climate of the Early Palaeozoic Icehouse
Chitinozoans and graptolites are the main components of preserved Ordovician zooplankton. As with much of the modern plankton, the ‘first-order’ species distributions of Ordovician plankton reflect water masses defined on the basis of sea surface ...

Abstract Southern Thailand hosts numerous low‐ to medium‐enthalpy geothermal manifestations in a non‐volcanic setting. This study investigates the geothermal potential of the region through the integration of satellite‐derived gravity data and geological observations.

Reconstructing a Super-Eruption From the Upper Ordovician Period in the Eastern Pyrenees, Spain [PDF]
The Pyrenean basement rocks, NE of the Iberian Peninsula, southwestern Europe, include evidence of several pre-Variscan magmatic episodes which indicate the complex geodynamic history of this segment of the northern Gondwana margin from late ...

Abstract The interaction between the Tethyan and Paleo‐Pacific subduction systems in Southeast Asia since the Paleozoic is still poorly understood. Hainan Island and Borneo, located near the junction of the Tethyan and Paleo‐Pacific domains, provide the critical regions for understanding the dynamic processes and interaction between the two tectonic ...

Non‐Uniqueness, Symmetries and Invariance of Thermal History Modelling in Sedimentary Basins
This paper approaches non‐unique inverse problems by generating a representative ensemble of all possible solutions using the concept of symmetry. In the context of basin modelling, a symmetry is any manipulation of a forward model's parameters (e.g., thermal history) that leaves the model output (e.g., downhole vitrinite reflectance) unchanged ...
