Nature CommunicationsThe major ion chemistry of the ocean has been assumed to be controlled by river input, hydrothermal circulation at mid-ocean ridges, carbonate production, and low-temperature alteration of seafloor basalt, but marine chemical budgets remain difficult to ...

Distribution of Bouguer gravity anomaly and crust and upper mantle in the Antarctic region
Antarctic Record, 1986 Bouguer gravity anomaly south of 45°S was derived from the newly provided data of free-air anomaly and topography, and its implications in the crust and upper mantle structure of the land and its marginal ocean area were discussed from the viewpoint of ...

Speed matters - seismicity and spreading processes of ultraslow spreading mid-ocean ridges [PDF]
, 2018 The creation of new ocean lithosphere at mid-ocean ridges is accompanied by characteristic earthquake activity. The analysis of mid-ocean ridge seismicity proved a powerful tool to study submarine accretion of lithosphere and the structure of mid-ocean ...

The break-up of continents and the formation of new ocean basins
, 2002 Rifted continental margins are the product of stretching, thinning and ultimate break-up of a continental plate into smaller fragments, and the rocks lying beneath them store a record of this rifting process.

Ultra-depleted melts from Kamchatkan ophiolites : evidence for the interaction of the Hawaiian plume with an oceanic spreading center in the Cretaceous? [PDF]
, 2009 We report new data on the major and trace element composition of melt inclusions in spinel phenocrysts (Mg# = 0.7-0.8, Cr/(Cr + Al) = 0.32-0.52, TiO2 = 0.06-0.60 wt.%) from Cretaceous MORB-like basalt (La/Yb = 0.94, Th/Nb = 0.055, Th/La = 0.041) in the ...

Injuries in deep time: interpreting competitive behaviours in extinct reptiles via palaeopathology
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT For over a century, palaeopathology has been used as a tool for understanding evolution, disease in past communities and populations, and to interpret behaviour of extinct taxa. Physical traumas in particular have frequently been the justification for interpretations about aggressive and even competitive behaviours in extinct taxa.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2019 The subduction of upper oceanic lithosphere acts as a primary driver of Earth’s deep carbon and water cycles, providing a key transportation mechanism between surface systems and the deep Earth.

Harry Hess and sea-floor spreading [PDF]
, 1999 Harry Hess's hypothesis of sea-floor spreading brought together his long-standing interests in island arcs, oceanic topography, and the oceanic crust. The one unique feature of Hess's hypothesis was the origin of the oceanic crust as a hydration rind on ...

Morphology and tectonics of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, 7°–12°S
, 2003 We present swath bathymetric, gravity, and magnetic data from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge between the Ascension and the Bode Verde fracture zones, where significant ridge–hot spot interaction has been inferred.

Heat and Cold Waves in Brazil: An ERA5‐Based Analysis of Trends and Seasonality (1980–2024)
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study uses ERA5 reanalysis data to assess changes in extreme heat and cold events across Brazil from 1980 to 2024. Results reveal a sharp increase in heatwave frequency and a general decline in coldwave occurrences, though regional variations are substantial.
