Reproducing past subduction and mantle flow using high-resolution global convection models
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2018 Plate subduction drives both the internal convection and the surface geology of the solid Earth. Despite the rapid increase of computational power, it remains challenging for geodynamic models to reproduce the history of Earth-like subduction and ...

Changing Sources of Magma Generation Beneath Intra-Oceanic Islands Arcs: An Insight From the Juvenile Kohistan Island Arc, Pakistan Himalaya [PDF]
, 2006 The Kohistan arc, situated in the Pakistan Himalaya, is a Cretaceous intraoceanic island arc which was initiated during the northward movement of the Indian Plate. The arc was sutured to Asia at ca. 100 Ma.

Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, 2021 Remote sensing methods are a vital alternative for regional exploration surveys. Many ore deposits (e.g., epithermal, porphyry-related, volcanogenic massive sulphides, etc.) have distinct distribution patterns of alteration zones that can be used for ...

Experimental constraints on the damp peridotite solidus and oceanic mantle potential temperature
Science, 2017 Turning up the mantle temperature The temperature at which Earth's mantle begins to melt is a long-standing question in geology. Sarafian et al. present a clever set of experiments to determine the impact of small amounts of water on the melting ...

The application of S isotopes and S/Se ratios in determining ore-forming processes of magmatic Ni–Cu–PGE sulfide deposits: a cautionary case study from the northern Bushveld Complex [PDF]
, 2015 The application of S/Se ratios and S isotopes in the study of magmatic Ni–Cu–PGE sulfide deposits has long been used to trace the source of S and to constrain the role of crustal contamination in triggering sulfide saturation.
