Exhumed eo‐Alpine High‐Pressure Rocks Fed Campanian Turbidites in Eastern Sardinia
Abstract This study investigates the detrital record of the early orogenic evolution of the Sardinia‐Calabria system, preserved in Upper Cretaceous arenites exposed in eastern Sardinia. Sardinia and Corsica form a continental block that includes a segment of the Alpine orogen and of its former foreland basin.

Abstract In deep bedrock fractures of the Fennoscandian shield, pyrite with “superheavy” δ34S values of up to 147‰ exists together with calcite. The extreme variability and 34S‐enrichment in pyrite indicate that microbial sulfate reduction (MSR) evolved to almost complete sulfate exhaustion in closed‐system microenvironments.

Oxygen Isotopic Composition of Miocene Meteoric Water (δ18Ow) in Alpine Foreland Basins
Abstract The reconstructed stable oxygen isotopic composition of meteoric water (δ18Ow) is widely used for paleoclimate reconstructions. Understanding past environmental factors that drove changes in δ18Ow is essential for interpreting past climate conditions.

Vanadium Isotopic Compositions of the High‐3He/4He Baffin Island Lavas
Abstract The isotopic composition of vanadium (V) in hotspot lavas provides new insight into the source of deep mantle heterogeneities. We measured V isotopic compositions in Paleogene Baffin Island lavas, which erupted above the Iceland plume head, to constrain the mantle plume source. These lavas have V isotopic compositions that are lighter (−0.96 ±

Abstract Aluminum phyllosilicates occur in 1–10s of km2 exposures of Noachian (∼3.7 Ga) rock across Mars and typically appear stratigraphically above Fe/Mg‐phyllosilicates. These units have been proposed to represent pedogenic basalt weathering sequences.

Abstract Long‐distance aeolian dust transport represents one of the largest sediment fluxes on Earth, with North Africa being a dominant source. The island of Crete in the Eastern Mediterranean lies within major transport pathways but remains underexplored regarding multi‐proxy fingerprinting of deposited dust.

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.
