Inversion by Intrusion: Magma‐Driven Shortening in the Turkana Rift (East Africa)
Abstract Late Pliocene to Pleistocene inversion in the Turkana Rift, observed on seismic reflection data and in outcrop, presents a tectonic paradox by indicating local shortening in an overall extensional setting. Previous studies attributed this inversion either to the reactivation of obliquely oriented structural weaknesses or to reorientation of ...

Abstract The exhumation of Alpine Corsica is the result of Oligocene‐Miocene lithospheric back‐arc extension in the wake of the eastward migration of Apenninic subduction. Although the geometry, kinematics and timing of ductile detachments are well constrained, the brittle extension leading to final exhumation of Alpine Corsica is less documented.

Drivers and Patterns of Sediment Organic Carbon in European Regional Seas
Abstract Mapping organic carbon (OC) stores in marine sediments is a management priority to potentially minimize the anthropogenic release of organic carbon from the seabed. Sediment OC content shows high regional variability, shaped by a complex interplay of physical, chemical, biological and anthropogenic factors.

Abstract Low‐temperature hydrothermal manganese oxides occur throughout the global oceans. However, the hydrothermal replacement of a carbonate ooze by manganese oxides is described here for the first time. The 24 samples dredged from three locations around the Territory of American Samoa in the South Pacific Ocean include six samples with remnant ...

Abstract The tectonic evolution of the northern margin of the North China Craton (NCC) remains controversial. In this study, we obtained zircon U–Pb ages, geochemical data, and Sr–Nd isotopic data for volcanic rocks, and detrital zircon ages for sedimentary rocks from the Yufutun, Tongqigou, and Benxi formations in central‐southern Jilin Province, NE ...

Abstract Oceanic lithosphere formed at the global mid‐ocean ridge system makes up >60% of Earth's solid surface. Its uppermost ∼6 km are accreted either magmatically, where mafic melt is available, or tectonically, where this melt is absent. The magmatically accreted lithosphere is known to evolve with age, as demonstrated by its velocity increase ...
