Capturing the Multi‐Decadal Evolution of Glacier–Permafrost Interactions in a High‐Alpine Environment (Ritord, Western Swiss Alps)

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the multi‐decadal evolution of a glacier forefield under permafrost conditions in the Combins Massif (western Swiss Alps). A multi‐method approach based on historical and recent datasets is used to analyze its landform components.

Partial melting in an upwelling mantle column

, 2008
Decompression melting of hot upwelling rock in the mantle creates a region of partial melt comprising a porous solid matrix through which magma rises buoyantly.

Geochemical Constraints on the Structure of the Earth's Deep Mantle and the Origin of the LLSVPs

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Geophysical analysis of the Earth's lower mantle has revealed the presence of two superstructures characterized by low shear wave velocities on the core‐mantle boundary.

Gas check prevention during calendering of poly(vinyl chloride) films using poly(caprolactone)‐based additives

Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, Volume 31, Issue 2, Page 441-452, March 2025.
Three poly(caprolactone) (PCL)‐based additives of differing molecular weights were used as a secondary plasticizer to prevent gas checks in PVC films produced through calendering. Results showed that chemical and physicochemical properties influence the prevention or reduction of gas checks, unlike rheological properties including complex viscosity and

Granite magmatism and mantle filiation [PDF]

European Journal of Mineralogy
Current granite magma generation models essentially reduce to two groups: (1) intra-crustal melting and (2) basaltic origin. A mixed, crustal, and basaltic origin and therefore a mantle filiation has been proposed for most granite magma types.

The energetics of melting fertile heterogeneities within the depleted mantle

To explore the consequences of mantle heterogeneity for primary melt production, we develop a mathematical model of energy conservation for an upwelling, melting body of recycled oceanic crust embedded in the depleted upper mantle.

Re-os isotope constraints on the age of the Lithospheric mantle beneath western Greenland. [PDF]

, 2007
Alkaline magmatic activity across Western Greenland (W.G.) provides a record of lithosphere evolution over the last 600 Ma. Ultra Mafic Lamprophyre (UML) magmatism in particular has erupted an exceptional inventory of mantle xenoliths allowing a detailed

Orthopyroxene-dominated upper mantle melting built the early crust of the Moon

Communications Earth & Environment
The paradigm of lunar crust formation has been widely applied to other terrestrial bodies, but the nature of early crust building on the Moon remains enigmatic.
