Proceedings of the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program 336: Mid-Atlantic Ridge Microbiology

open access: yes, 2012
<p>Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 336 successfully initiated subseafloor observatory science at a young mid-ocean-ridge flank setting. All of the drilled sites are located in the North Pond region of the Atlantic Ocean.

Activity and abundance of denitrifying bacteria in the subsurface biosphere of diffuse hydrothermal vents of the Juan de Fuca Ridge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Little is known about fixed nitrogen (N) transformation and elimination at diffuse hydrothermal vents where anoxic fluids are mixed with oxygenated crustal seawater prior to discharge.

Thorncliffe Formation: A proglacial to subglacial lacustrine basin sequence, Greater Toronto Region, Canada

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Map of Lower sediment (LS) thickness is a surrogate for the distribution of Thorncliffe Formation (TF) and ~75% of TF thickness from the slope of Niagara Escarpment east to Brighton. Inset images show the LS sequence at the Don Valleys brickyards (DVBY) and undeformed TF sand and gravel (~15 m) below Newmarket Till (NT) at sites L and Co.

Luminescence dating of coastal deposits from the Chanthaburi Plain, Thailand

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The ongoing global sea‐level rise urges us to better understand the dynamics of coastal processes for predicting future changes. Sedimentary deposits reflect past coastal environments but require precise chronological data to place evidence into a temporal context.

Earthquake Seismicity Reveals the Location and Significance of the Shona Mantle Plume in the South Atlantic Ocean

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The South Atlantic Ocean hosts several well‐studied volcanic ridges and seamount chains, but the origin of their associated mantle plumes is debated.

Chronological, geochemical characteristics and tectonic evolution significance of the Sanyan eclogites in the Jinsha River suture zone, eastern Xizang

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao
Objective  As a key component of the eastern Tethys tectonic domain, the Jinsha River–Ailao Mountain suture zone is widely recognized as a Paleo-Tethys orogenic belt.

Changing climates and environments within the complex Middle to Late Pleistocene fill of an overdeepened valley at Niederweningen, Switzerland

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Glacially overdeepened valleys in the northern Alpine Foreland preserve Middle to Late Pleistocene sedimentary sequences that may serve as valuable archives for reconstructing past environmental changes in response to shifts in climate. This study presents a multidisciplinary analysis of two sediment cores from the overdeepened Wehntal Valley at ...

RRS James Cook Cruise 44, 25 Mar - 22 Apr 2010, Trinidad to Jamaica. Hydrothermal activity and deep-ocean biology of the Mid-Cayman Rise

open access: yes, 2012
JC044 was a NERC funded research cruise aboard the UK Research Vessel the RRS James Cook the aim of the cruise was to explore the ultra-slow spreading Mid-Cayman Rise (MCR) in the Caribbean for hydrothermal activity.

Crustal accretion at the Reykjanes Ridge, 61°–62°N

open access: yes
We report results of a seismic, gravity, and magnetic survey of the Reykjanes Ridge spreading center at 61°–62°N, about 600 km from the center of the Iceland mantle plume.
