Geology, geochronology, and geochemistry of the Miocene–Pliocene Ancestral Cascades arc, northern Sierra Nevada, California and Nevada: The roles of the upper mantle, subducting slab, and the Sierra Nevada lithosphere [PDF]
The assemblage of ca. 28–3 Ma volcanic rocks exposed in the Lake Tahoe–Reno region of the northern Sierra Nevada, United States, is interpreted to be part of the Ancestral Cascades volcanic arc. The volcanic rocks are commonly highly porphyritic, including abundant plagioclase with clinopyroxene, amphibole, and rare biotite, and range from basaltic ...

Divergent views debated over the past 20 years on the Wolstonian depositional record of Fenland and the Peterborough area have centred on whether there is evidence of a single (middle or late) glaciation or of both a middle and a late glaciation. A recent review promoted a single late Wolstonian glaciation, despite there being incontrovertible evidence

Episodic Lithospheric Deformation in Eastern Tibet Inferred From Seismic Anisotropy
Mechanisms for uplift and deformation of the Tibetan Plateau remain vigorously debated; hypotheses include stepwise growth, distributed thickening, and crustal channel flow, each with a distinct anisotropic signature.

ABSTRACT We investigated whether statolith microchemistry analysis could classify ommastrephid and loliginid squid species into fishery stocks. Statolith nucleus (early life stage) and edge (life stage at time before catch) of Illex coindetii (Verany, 1839) and Loligo forbesii (Steenstrup, 1856) from various areas of the North East Atlantic Ocean and ...

Arctic Tectonics and Volcanism: a multi-scale, multi-disciplinary educational approach [PDF]
Geologically, the Arctic is one of the least-explored regions of Earth. Obtaining data in the high Arctic is logistically, economically, and environmentally expensive, but the township of Longyearbyen (population of 2617 as of 2024) at 78° N represents a

Teaching Aquitard Concepts With Field‐Based High‐Resolution Head Profile Learning Activities
Abstract Aquitards play critical roles in a variety of hydrogeologic processes. Despite their importance, coverage of aquitards in introductory hydrogeology textbooks is generally limited. This paper provides examples of classroom and field activities designed with an aquitard focus for instructors wishing to supplement textbook content.

Research Direction and Science Evaluation: The Role of Coherence and Alignment
ABSTRACT The decisions of funding agencies greatly influence the direction of scientific research; however, our understanding of how applicants' research directions affect the selection process remains limited. In this study, we investigate how a project's coherence with a scientist's previous work and its alignment with current scientific trends ...

ABSTRACT Elevated heat flow associated with mafic magmatism in accretionary orogens has often been proposed as a driving mechanism for (ultra)high‐temperature (UHT) metamorphism and anatexis. The Sancheong–Hadong complex, located in the southern Yeongnam Massif, Korea, consists of a ca.
