A Rare Glimpse of Paleoproterozoic Sub‐Arc Mantle: The Ussuit Peridotite, West Greenland

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Mantle residues beneath Archean cratonic nuclei have been extensively studied, whereas less attention has been given to the mantle lithosphere beneath Proterozoic mobile belts that link these nuclei.

Stardust Mine: A 2024 gabbroic shergottite from Arizona, USA

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This study provides an initial characterization of Stardust Mine, a fresh gabbroic enriched shergottite collected in Arizona, USA, in September 2024 and is the first Martian meteorite to be unequivocably collected on US soil. Analysis was conducted on the type specimen and finds that Stardust Mine is composed of equal proportions of pyroxene ...

Mantle pseudo-isochrons revisited

The 2.0 Ga pseudo-isochron age inferred from the mid-ocean ridge basalt 207Pb/204Pb against 206Pb/204Pb diagram is reexamined on the basis of a statistical box model of mantle processes.

Time constraints on the formation of lithospheric mantle beneath cratons: a re-Os isotope and platinum group element study of peridotite xenoliths from northern Canada and Lesotho, [PDF]

, 2001
Understanding the generation and evolution of cratonic lithospheric keels requires detailed knowledge of their age, timescale of formation, and the relationship between the crust and mantle part of the lithosphere.

Fine‐root trait variation in temperate trees follows arc‐shape pattern along deep soil profiles

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Root trait variation along the soil depth profile in four temperate tree species. Summary Roots are plants' interface with the soil, controlling access to water and nutrients. Yet, fine‐root trait variation along deep soil profiles and its functional implications remain poorly understood.

Lithosphere Modification Beneath the North China Craton: Geochemical Constraints of Water Contents from the Damaping Peridotite Xenoliths

Crystals
The water contents and geochemical evidence of nominally anhydrous minerals in peridotite xenoliths provide critical insights into lithospheric mantle features, offering a deep understanding of cratonic destruction and mantle evolution processes ...

Development of chalcones structure‐related to avobenzone: Photoprotection, photostability, and safety evaluation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Scaffold hopping strategy used to develop chalcones structure‐related to the avobenzone tautomer. Positive aspects of 2‐hydroxychalcones are highlighted. Abstract Chalcones are α,β‐unsaturated ketones with extended π‐conjugation, making them promising scaffolds for the development of organic UV filters.

Petrological features of Subei Basin (Eastern China) lithospheric mantle and their relationships with H2O contents in NAMs

, 2010
The Subei basin is located east of the Tanlu fault, a major discontinuity which separates the Archean North China Craton from the Proterozoic Yangtze Craton.

1. Experimental Investigation of Hydrous Melting of the Earth’s Upper Mantle, and 2. Olivine Abundances and Compositions in Hawaiian Lavas

, 2010
(1) The presence of small amounts of water dissolved within nominally-anhydrous minerals in the earth has significant effects on the chemistry of melting in the Earth’s mantle.

A REE Inverse Model From Bulk Distribution Coefficients and Boundary Conditions: Results for Shield and Rejuvenated Stage Hawaiian Volcanoes

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
A major challenge in mantle geochemistry is determining the source composition and melt fraction involved in melting. We provide a new Rare‐Earth Element (REE) inverse model that provides source concentration, source and melt mineral modes, and melt ...
