The older ultramafic rocks of Aberdeenshire, similarities to SSZ ophiolites and significance for regional tectonics [abstract] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
It has long been known that there are at least two phases of mafic-ultramafic magmatism in NE Scotland (Read 1919), the well known Younger Gabbro suite and a lesser known ‘Older suite’.

Lithospheric controls on melt production during continental breakup at slow rates of extension: Application to the North Atlantic

open access: yes, 2009
Rifted margins form from extension and breakup of the continentallithosphere. If this extension is coeval with a region of hotter lithosphere,then it is generally assumed that a volcanic margin would follow.

New Geochronological Constraints on the Late Palaeozoic Tarija Basin, Southern Bolivia: Tectonic and Palaeoclimatic Implications

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 9-18, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The Carboniferous‐Permian Tarija basin of southern Bolivia evolved under major tectonic and climatic influence. The timing of transition from glacially influenced to arid conditions, after the Gondwanide tectonic event, has been based mainly on palynological correlations.

The Role of Continental Alkaline Magmatism in Mantle Carbon Outflux Constrained by a Machine Learning Analysis of Zircon

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Continental alkaline magmatism has been suggested to play a significant role in releasing deep mantle carbon into the atmosphere, which can greatly impact the global climate.

Water budget in flat vs. steep subduction: implication for volcanism and potential for H2 production

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
In this study, we model the processes of (de)hydration and melting within subduction zones using a thermo-mechanical modeling approach. Multiple 2D simulations are conducted to investigate how the subduction angle influences the water budget in oceanic ...

Seismological Evidence of Multiple Crustal Magma Reservoirs Beneath Mt. Wrangell in Southcentral Alaska

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract Recent studies have challenged the classical view of magma chambers as ephemeral, melt‐rich bodies confined to shallow depths beneath arc volcanoes at subduction zones. Instead, increasing evidence supports the existence of long‐lived, vertically extensive magmatic systems with persistent partial melts within the crust. Nevertheless, the depth

Characterization of Crustal Deformation During the May 2021 Nyiragongo Eruption Using InSAR and GNSS Data

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract We analyze Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data to characterize ground deformation and dike opening associated with the May 2021 Nyiragongo eruption. Despite documented eruptions in 1977 and 2002, Nyiragongo's magmatic system and its interaction with regional rifting remain poorly ...

Deformation of the Upper Oceanic Crust in the Outer Rise of the Sumatra Subduction Zone: Insights From P‐ and Doubly Converted S‐Wave Arrivals on Downward Continued Streamer Data

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract The structure and properties of mature upper oceanic plates may evolve through mechanisms such as magmatism, hydrothermal circulation, and faulting. However, high‐resolution constraints, especially those involving both P‐ and S‐waves, remain scarce, limiting our ability to detect these processes and assess their impacts on crustal properties ...
