Abstract Modeling processes within Earth's and other planetary bodies' mantle requires constraints from phase equilibrium to infer how changes in phase abundance and composition affect physical properties and geochemical processes. When applying such thermodynamic models on a planetary scale, performance becomes especially crucial.

Upper cretaceous magmatic suites of the Timok magmatic complex
The Upper Cretaceous Timok Magmatic Complex (TMC) developed on a continental crust composed of different types of Proterozoic to Lower Cretaceous rocks. The TMC consists of the magmatic suites: Timok andesite (AT) - Turonian-Santonian, Metovnica epiclastite (EM) - Coniacian-Campanian, Osnic basaltic andesite (AO) and Jezevica andesite (AJ) -

Rodingite‐Derived Melt as a Recipe for Ultra‐Calcic Magmas
Abstract Rodingite is a high‐CaO rock formed by Ca‐rich fluid metasomatism on mafic protoliths. It typically occurs within serpentinite and represents an often‐overlooked constituent of the altered oceanic lithosphere that may be subducted into the mantle.

Abstract The mantle transition zone (MTZ; ∼410–660 km depth) is a major reservoir of water and mid‐ocean ridge basalt (MORB)‐like materials, yet how composition and hydration regulate its physical stability remains unclear. Using geodynamical modeling, we examine the joint effect of water content and dense MORB fraction on the density, viscosity, and ...

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

Segmented Moho Uplift and Implications for Magmatic Underplating Beneath the Datong Basin
Abstract Understanding how the deep crust responds to coupled tectonic and magmatic processes is essential for deciphering intracontinental rifting. We apply high‐resolution passive‐source reverse time migration to teleseismic P‐wave receiver functions recorded by a dense seismic array to image the Moho beneath the Datong Basin. Our observations reveal

Abstract We present new results from ambient noise tomography and azimuthal anisotropy analysis of the DOMERAPI data set to investigate crustal structure beneath the Merapi‐Merbabu‐Telomoyo region in central Java. The 3D shear‐wave velocity (Vs) model reveals a prominent high‐Vs anomaly extending from south of Merapi through Merbabu to Telomoyo ...

Abstract The mechanisms underlying the patchy distribution of forearc megathrust earthquakes and arc volcanoes in subduction zones remain poorly understood. Here we present a high‐resolution seismic tomographic model of the Central American subduction zone, derived from a joint inversion of local body‐wave and teleseismic Rayleigh‐wave data.

A Shallow‐Marine Ecosystem Before Initial Tibetan Plateau Uplift
Abstract The uplift of the Tibetan Plateau profoundly influences global atmospheric circulation, sediment transport, and biodiversity, but its pre‐uplift marine paleoenvironment remains poorly understood. Here we report the first discovery of an in situ benthic fossil assemblage from the Puga area in central Tibet, which was deposited on a shallow ...

Abstract Intracontinental deformation records how early Eocene India–Asia collisional stress propagated into continental interiors. How rapidly compression reached the far field, and whether coeval Paleo‐Pacific slab dynamics contributed, remain debated. The Longzhong Basin, ∼1,900 km north of the collisional zone, provides a key test.
