Constraining the long-term evolution of the slip rate for a major extensional fault system in the central Aegean, Greece, using thermochronology [PDF]

, 2006
The brittle/ductile transition is a major rheologic boundary in the crust yet little is known about how or if rates of tectonic processes are influenced by this boundary.

Low temperature thermochronology and strategies for multiple samples

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2006
We present a new approach for modelling geological thermal histories from thermochronological data in 2D and 3D. The method allows data from multiple samples to be modelled jointly, improving the resolution of the final solution, and reduces the potential for over interpreting the data.

The daughter–parent plot: a tool for analyzing thermochronological data [PDF]

Geochronology
Data plots of daughter against parent concentration (D–P plots) are a potential tool for analyzing low-temperature thermochronology, similar to isochron plots in radioisotopic geochronology.

Early Cenozoic denudation of central west Britain in response to transient and permanent uplift above a mantle plume [PDF]

, 2018
Upwelling mantle plumes beneath continental crust are predicted to produce difficult to quantify, modest uplift and denudation. The contribution of permanent and transient components to the uplift is also difficult to distinguish.

Anomalously old biotite ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages in the NW Himalaya [PDF]

, 2017
Biotite 40Ar/39Ar ages older than corresponding muscovite 40Ar/39Ar ages, contrary to the diffusion properties of these minerals, are common in the Himalaya and other metamorphic regions.

Low-temperature thermochronology of the flanks of the southern Upper Rhine Graben [PDF]

International Journal of Earth Sciences, 2005
The Upper Rhine Graben (URG) is the most perceptible part of the European Cenozoic Rift System. Uplifted Variscan basement of the Black Forest and the Vosges forms the flanks of the southern part of the graben. Apatite and zircon fission-track (FT) analyses indicate a complex low-temperature thermal history of the basement that was deciphered by ...

Fault Slip and Exhumation History of the Willard Thrust Sheet, Sevier Fold‐Thrust Belt, Utah: Relations to Wedge Propagation, Hinterland Uplift, and Foreland Basin Sedimentation [PDF]

, 2019
Zircon (U‐Th)/He (ZHe) and zircon fission track thermochronometric data for 47 samples spanning the areally extensive Willard thrust sheet within the western part of the Sevier fold‐thrust belt record enhanced cooling and exhumation during major thrust ...

Eocene Origin of Owens Valley, California

Geosciences, 2019
Bedrock (U-Th)/He data reveal an Eocene exhumation difference greater than four kilometers athwart Owens Valley, California near the Alabama Hills. This difference is localized at the eastern fault-bound edge of the valley between the Owens Valley Fault ...

Late Cenozoic Tectonic Evolution of the Western Nepal Himalaya: Insights from Low-Temperature Thermochronology [PDF]

Lithosphere
In the central Himalaya, an abrupt physiographic transition at the foot of the Greater Himalaya (PT2) marks the southern edge of a zone of rapid rock uplift along a ramp in the Main Himalayan Thrust (MHT).

Apatite fission track dating of the Beypazarı Granitoid: insight for the inception of collision along the Northern Neotethys, Turkey

Geodinamica Acta, 2020
The Beypazarı Granitoid is an arc-related intrusion in the Central Pontides, Turkey. This study presents apatite fission track (AFT) ages of the intrusion to shed some light on collision-related cooling/exhumation history of the central Pontides. The AFT
