The Proximal Ejecta Around the Marine‐Target Lockne Impact Structure, Sweden

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 128, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Very few impact craters on Earth have preserved proximal ejecta (ejecta blanket), which when present help us to better understand the cratering processes when asteroid hits Earth. The 458 Ma old Lockne impact structure consists of a 7.5‐km wide nested crater in the crystalline basement surrounded by an approximately 3‐km wide brim developed in

The Central Series of the Rum Igneous Complex, NW Scotland: the rises and falls of magma in a large mafic‐ultramafic volcano

open access: yesGeology Today, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 130-143, July/August 2023., 2023
The Central Series of the Paleocene mafic to ultramafic Rum complex is the youngest of the three main cumulate series that make up the layered igneous complex of this famed Scottish island. The Central Series lies along the Long Loch Fault and provides insights into the feeder system to the Rum intrusion at an erosion level of about two kilometres ...

The origin of carbonates in impact melt‐bearing breccias from Site M0077 at the Chicxulub impact structure, Mexico

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 58, Issue 6, Page 834-854, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Carbonates from the impact melt‐bearing breccia in the 2016 IODP/ICDP Expedition 364 drill core at Site M0077 were systematically documented and characterized petrographically and geochemically. Calcite, the only carbonate mineral present, is abundant throughout this deposit as five distinct varieties: (1) subangular carbonate clasts (Type A);

Landslide Processes Involved in Volcano Dismantling From Past to Present: The Remarkable Open‐Air Laboratory of the Cirque de Salazie (Reunion Island)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 127, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022
Abstract The Cirque de Salazie is one of the large erosional depressions of Reunion Island. Composed of a thick accumulation of loose volcaniclastic materials derived from successive volcanic flank collapses and exposed to high precipitation rates, this large depression is particularly prone to landslides. Of the 133 km2 making up this large depression,
