Hydrous Carbonatitic Liquids Drive CO2 Recycling From Subducted Marls and Limestones

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 209-221., 2020

This book is Open Access. A digital copy can be downloaded for free from Wiley Online Library.

Explores the behavior of carbon in minerals, melts, and fluids under extreme conditions

Carbon trapped in diamonds and carbonate-bearing rocks in subduction zones are examples of the continuing exchange of substantial carbon ...

An aseismic slip pulse in northern Chile and along-strike variations in seismogenic behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We use interferometric synthetic aperture radar, GPS, and seismic observations spanning 5 to 18 years to reveal a detailed kinematic picture of the spatiotemporal evolution of fault slip in a region corresponding to the 30 July 1995 M_w 8.1 subduction ...

Complex anisotropy beneath the Peruvian flat slab from frequency-dependent, multiple-phase shear wave splitting analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Flat or shallow subduction is a relatively widespread global occurrence, but the dynamics remain poorly understood. In particular, the interaction between flat slabs and the surrounding mantle flow has yet to be studied in detail.

Mass wasting at the base of the South central Chilean continental margin: the Reloca Slide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Offshore south central Chile (35° S–42° S), the morphology of the lowermost continental slope and trench floor witnesses a voluminous submarine mass-wasting event.

Middle to Late Miocene Contractional Deformation in Costa Rica Triggered by Plate Geodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Contractional deformation in Costa Rica is usually attributed to the subduction of the aseismic Cocos Ridge. In this work, we review the evidences for contraction in the middle to late Miocene, prior to the arrival of the Cocos Ridge at the Middle ...

Cenozoic plate driving forces [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Past studies of plate driving forces have concluded that the forces due to subducted slabs in the upper mantle and those due to the thickening of the oceanic lithosphere are the principal driving forces. We reexamine the balance of driving forces for the

Effective elastic thickness in the Central Andes. Correlation to orogenic deformation styles and lower crust high-gravity anomaly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Global studies have assessed the importance of elastic thickness (Te) on orogenic evolution, showing that the style and nature of upper crustal shortening are influenced by the inherited lithospheric strength. Thus, pioneer works have identified that the

Les rapprochements panaméricains de « longue durée » dans l’essai de Robert Morris, « Sur les traces de Nazca » (1975) 

open access: yesTransatlantica
A significant moment unfolded in the Western world during the 1960s, as it sought to redefine the methods for understanding and approaching history. While Fernand Braudel crystallized the emerging epistemology in the field of the social sciences and the ...

Paleoceanography of the eastern equatorial Pacific during the Neogene: Synthesis of Leg 138 drilling results [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The primary objective of Leg 138 was to provide detailed information about the ocean\u27s response to global climate change during the Neogene. Two north-south transects were drilled (95° and 110°W) within the region of equatorial divergence-driven ...
