Interplay Between Mechanical and Petrochemical Models on the Fluid Extraction From Subduction Zones

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The breakdown of hydrous minerals during subduction results in a densification of the rocks, producing volume changes that can trigger fluid pressure fluctuations and hydrofracturing. These volume changes are controlled by the Clapeyron slope of the reaction and are quantified here using a macroscopic framework that integrates a zero ...

Thermal-mechanical response to simple shear extension [PDF]

open access: yes
The mechanism of extension in the continental crust is apparently much more complex than that acting in the oceanic lithosphere. Recently, Wernicke has proposed that a significant fraction of extension in the continental lithosphere may occur by a simple

Rapid terrestrial weathering of the CI1 carbonaceous chondrite find Oued Chebeika 002

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Alteration of historic CI1 meteorite falls during their curation demonstrates the susceptibility of smectite‐rich carbonaceous chondrites to terrestrial exposure. The discovery of Oued Chebeika 002 in Morocco in June 2024 presents a unique opportunity to document the earliest stages of weathering of a CI1 find.

Age-dependent seismic thickness and mechanical strength of the Australian lithosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We present constraints on the regional variations of the seismic and mechanical thickness of the Australian lithosphere. We infer the seismic thickness from a waveform tomographic model of S-wave speed, and as a proxy for the elastic thickness we use the

The lithospheric mantle and lower crust-mantle relationships under Scotland: a xenolithic perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the British Isles the majority of volcanic rocks containing upper mantle and lower crustal xenoliths occur in Scotland. Most of the occurrences are of Carboniferous–Permian age.

Isostasy and Flexure of the Lithosphere

open access: yes, 2023
Isostasy is a simple concept, yet it has long perplexed students of geology and geophysics. This fully updated edition provides the tools to better understand this concept using a simplified mathematical treatment, numerous geological examples, and an extensive bibliography.

Expression of a constitutively active nitrate reductase increases SARS‐CoV‐2 Spike protein production in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves that otherwise show traits of senescence

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary The production of coronavirus disease 2019 vaccines can be achieved by transient expression of the Spike (S) protein of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 in agroinfiltrated leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana, a process promoted by the co‐expression of viral silencing suppressor P19.

Petrology of some oceanic island basalts: PRIMELT2.XLS software for primary magma calculation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
PRIMELT2.XLS software is introduced for calculating primary magma composition and mantle potential temperature (TP) from an observed lava composition. It is an upgrade over a previous version in that it includes garnet peridotite melting and it detects ...

Interaction of mantle convection with the lithosphere and the origin of kimberlites

open access: yesГеофизический журнал, 2013
Thermobarometry of xenolites/xenocrysts from 39 kimberlites of Eurasia, Africa, and North America demonstrates that the deepest xenolites, as well as all the other, are exhumed from the depleted lithosphere implying in agreement with petrologic and ...

P‐T‐t‐d Evolution of Low‐Grade Metamorphic Xenotime, Eastern Alps (Austria)

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In situ LA‐ICP‐MS U‐Pb dating of xenotime was used to establish the age of low‐grade metamorphism in Permian metasediments of the Austroalpine Unit (Eastern Alps, Austria). Complexly zoned xenotime in chloritoid‐bearing metasedimentary samples possesses distinct MREE‐rich domains. In the eastern sample, this domain yielded a date of c. 135 Ma,
