Mantle heterogeneity during the formation of the North Atlantic Igneous Province: Constraints from trace element and Sr-Nd-Os-O isotope systematics of Baffin Island picrites [PDF]

, 2004
Sr-Nd-Os-O isotope and major and trace element data from ~62 Ma picrites from Baffin Island constrain the composition of mantle sources sampled at the inception of North Atlantic Igneous Province (NAIP) magmatism.

Micronuclei and Other Nuclear Abnormalities in Patella Limpet as Biomarkers of Cytogenotoxicity in Recreational Port Waters

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past decades, the growth in human population and economic activities has led to an increase in maritime traffic. This rise puts additional pressure on marine environments, vessel fuel spills being considered to have a major impact on the ecosystem.

Seismic visibility of carbonated subducted oceanic crust in the lower mantle

Communications Earth & Environment
Seismological studies have previously detected abundant scatterers in the lower mantle, potentially linked to long-term slab subduction, and petrology studies suggest carbonates can be sequestrated within the oceanic crust and transported into the lower ...

Origin, structural and tectonic history of the Macquarie Island region [PDF]

, 1988
Macquarie Island, in the Southern Ocean, was formed by oceanic crust uplift due to transpressive forces between the Indian / Australian and Pacific oceanic plates, in a transpressional regime which has persisted over the last 10 Ma. The amount of uplift

Scaling from microsite to landscape to resolve litter decomposition dynamics in globally extensive drylands

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decomposition is the transformation of dead organic matter into its inorganic constituents. In most biomes, decomposition rates can be accurately predicted with simple mathematical models, but these models have long under‐predicted decomposition in globally extensive ...

Sponges are celebrated heterotrophs but also key primary producers on changing coral reefs

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Trophic interactions and nutrient cycling lay at the heart of ecosystem health and biodiversity. In recent years, our understanding of these drivers has been repeatedly challenged by rapid and unanticipated climatic effects, combined with an increasing awareness that ...

Probing the Earth's interior with a large-volume liquid scintillator detector

, 2006
A future large-volume liquid scintillator detector would provide a high-statistics measurement of terrestrial antineutrinos originating from $\beta$-decays of the uranium and thorium chains.

M. E. Grant Duff, Philosophic Liberalism and the Global Liberal Cause

History, EarlyView.
Abstract Historians disagree about how best to conceptualize nineteenth‐century British Liberalism in relation to its international contexts. This article argues that we can better understand the patterns involved by interrogating individuals who bridged the worlds of partisan politics and elaborated thought.

K‐Metasomatic Weakening of Oceanic Crust at Shallow Subduction Depths: Evidence From the Rodeo Cove Thrust Zone, Marin Headlands, California

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Studies of exhumed subduction shear zones indicate that metamorphism and metasomatism of the oceanic lithosphere influence the composition, structure, and rheology of megathrust faults, particularly deep along the plate boundary (>30 km).
