Illumina-based transcriptome sequencing of mussel Mytilus coruscus mantle
Mollusk shell is an exoskeleton made up of organic mineral particles and its function is to protect the inner soft body from predators and environmental damage. Due to its superior mechanical properties, such as stiffness, fracture toughness, and tensile

Large Igneous Provinces, and by extension the mantle plumes that generate them, are frequently associated with platinum-group element (PGE) ore deposits, yet the processes controlling the metal budget in plume-derived magmas remains debated.

CRUST AND MANTLE OF THE BAIKAL RIFT ZONE FROM P- AND S-WAVE RECEIVER FUNCTIONS
We have obtained P-wave and S-wave receiver functions for 10 broadband seismograph stations in the Baikal rift zone (BRZ) and inverted them for seismic velocity models of the crust and upper mantle.

Biomineralization is a widespread phenomenon in marine mollusks and is responsible for the production of shells and pearls. However, the regulatory mechanisms governing the adaptive immune responses in the mollusk mantle and visceral mass during ...

Inferences of mantle viscosity based on ice age data sets: Radial structure [PDF]
We perform joint nonlinear inversions of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) data, including the following: postglacial decay times in Canada and Scandinavia, the Fennoscandian relaxation spectrum (FRS), late-Holocene differential sea level (DSL ...

The work considers the mechanism of upwelling of the basaltic melt to the surface and the reason of its stoppage in the crust. The process of stoppage, probably, is controlled by ratio between density of the basaltic melt and density of the crust.

Extremely high He isotope ratios in MORB-source mantle from the proto-Iceland plume [PDF]
The high <sup>3</sup>He/<sup>4</sup>He ratio of volcanic rocks thought to be derived from mantle plumes is taken as evidence for the existence of a mantle reservoir that has remained largely undegassed since the Earth's accretion.

Mantle heterogeneity during the formation of the North Atlantic Igneous Province: Constraints from trace element and Sr-Nd-Os-O isotope systematics of Baffin Island picrites [PDF]
Sr-Nd-Os-O isotope and major and trace element data from ~62 Ma picrites from Baffin Island constrain the composition of mantle sources sampled at the inception of North Atlantic Igneous Province (NAIP) magmatism.

Monogenetic Near‐Island Seamounts in the Galápagos Archipelago
Rarely have small seamounts on the flanks of hotspot derived ocean‐island volcanoes been the targets of sampling, due to sparse high‐resolution mapping near ocean islands.

Acute effect of detergent on lipid alteration in freshwater gastropod Bellamya bengalensis (Lamarck)
The freshwater gastropod Bellamya bengalensis exposed to 69.18ppm concentration of detergent (Tide) on lipid content in the tissue of foot, mantle and digestive glands for 96 hours exposure.
