Carbon plays important roles in the evolution of the atmosphere and biosphere, and geochemical differentiation in Earth's interior. Most subducted C is recycled to the deep mantle and returns to the surface by degassing from erupted basalts and ...

Tertiary-Quaternary subduction processes and related magmatism in the Alpine-Mediterranean region [PDF]
During Tertiary to Quaternary times, convergence between Eurasia and Africa resulted in a variety of collisional orogens and different styles of subduction in the Alpine-Mediterranean region.

Geochemical Consequences of Melt Percolation: The Upper Mantle as a Chromatographic Column [PDF]
As magmas rise toward the surface, they traverse regions of the mantle and crust with which they are not in equilibrium; to the extent that time and the intimacy of their physical contact permit, the melts and country rocks will interact chemically. We

Patched removal of the mantle lithosphere under orogens: A systematic numerical study
Delamination or convective thinning could cause large-scale and complete removal of the mantle lithosphere under orogens. However, geological and geophysical observations suggest that patched removal of the mantle lithosphere has occurred in some orogens,

Petrogenesis and Sr-Nd isotope Geochemistry of Neogene Igneous Rocks in the Goloumak Area, South of Kerman, Iran [PDF]
The study area is near Goloumak village, 30 km south of Kerman. These rock units consist of acidic rhyolite and dacite, as well as intermediate andesite, basalt, and trachy-andesite.

Archaean and Proterozoic diamond growth from contrasting styles of large-scale magmatism [PDF]
Precise dating of diamond growth is required to understand the interior workings of the early Earth and the deep carbon cycle. Here we report Sm-Nd isotope data from 26 individual garnet inclusions from 26 harzburgitic diamonds from Venetia, South Africa.

Gold, platinum and palladium enrichments in arcs: role of mantle wedge, arc crust and halogen-rich slab fluids [PDF]
Arc-related magmas are frequently enriched in Au, Pt and Pd in respect to MORB and OIB igneous suites. Magmatic arcs commonly host large-scale hydrothermal Au and Au-Cu and PGE mineralization related to young volcanic systems and zoned ultramafic ...

Global Patterns in Cratonic Mid‐Lithospheric Discontinuities From Sp Receiver Functions
The goal of this study is to constrain the origins of layering in the seismic velocity structure within the cratonic mantle lithosphere (i.e. mid‐lithospheric discontinuities [MLDs]).
