Journal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding the pressure of emplacement of granitic intrusions is crucial to understanding the exhumation history of plutons and constraining the tectonic setting of magma emplacement. However, P–T and geochronological constraints from exhumed plutons are often characterized by large uncertainties, especially in shallow crustal settings with

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Since the discovery of nine meteorites near the Yamato mountains in 1969, Antarctica has been recognized as a superb location for meteorite recovery. While Antarctic recovery expeditions prioritize meteorite preservation for mineralogical and planetary studies, meteorites are not typically collected for biological applications.

The age and origin of the Vaasa migmatite complex revisited [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2014 The origin of the Vaasa migmatite complex was studied by using whole-rock Sm-Nd and zircon Lu-Hf and U-Pb data in conjunction with whole-rock major and trace element geochemistry.

Ductile Extrusion Triggered by Continental Collision in NE Brazil
Terra Nova, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Borborema Province in northeastern Brazil hosts one of the world's largest strike‐slip shear zone networks, active during the late Neoproterozoic assembly of West Gondwana. Whether these shear zones initiated during active continental collision or as a post‐orogenic response to far‐field stresses remains debated.

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition leads to many changes in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, affecting ecosystem processes and species composition. Terrestrial vegetation often shifts from being N‐limited to light‐limited and becomes dominated by a few fast‐growing strong competitors and generalist species.

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract In subduction zones, the locked seismogenic zone is bordered by an upper and a lower transition zone. In these transition zones, deformation is primarily accommodated by an interplay of diffuse viscous deformation within a weak matrix and brittle deformation in stiffer bands and blocks.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Melt migration in partially molten rocks is commonly described by porous flow models controlled by the hydro‐mechanical compaction length, which effectively explains melt extraction at mid‐ocean ridges. However, this framework cannot account for the paradoxical accumulation of small melt fractions into rhythmic leucosome–melanosome bands in ...

Multiphase boudinage: a case study of amphibolites in marble in the Naxos migmatite core [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2018 In multiply deformed terrains multiphase boudinage is common, but identification and analysis of these is difficult. Here we present an analysis of multiphase boudinage and fold structures in deformed amphibolite layers in marble from the migmatitic ...
