Abstract Chondrichthyans (sharks, rays and chimaeras) are increasingly understood to be an important part of ocean ecosystems, but their ecological role is unclear. Callorhinchus milii (elephant fish) is a chimaera species endemic to Aotearoa/New Zealand and southern Australian waters.

The Dzhidot and Urgol large paleoguyots and a number of smaller fragments of oceanic islands close in composition to the paleoguyots within the accretionary-collisional structures of the north-eastern part of the Central Asian orogenic belt are ...

ABSTRACT Reconstructing the pressure–temperature–time (P–T–t) evolution of (ultra)high‐pressure rocks is essential for constraining subduction and collisional dynamics. Subduction zones are often investigated using basic eclogites, whereas nonbasic high‐pressure rocks remain comparatively understudied, potentially hindering a comprehensive ...

Seismic surveys along subduction zones have identified anomalously high ratio of P‐ to S‐wave velocity (VP/VS) in the subducting oceanic crust that are possibly due to the presence of pore water.

Saline fluids play a major role in continental crust formation
A new general perspective on the long-standing problem of continental crust formation is presented in this study. Unlike prevailing models for continental crust formation that rely heavily on the behavior of major and trace elements in silicate melts in ...

Metamorphic Reactivity Influences Amphibole Creep Behaviour
ABSTRACT The rheological behaviour of solid‐solution minerals may play an important role in determining how metamorphic crust accommodates deformation. Whether or not a mineral's deformation is diffusion or dislocation‐mediated depends on a range of extrinsic variables such as stress, strain rate and temperature, as well as intrinsic variables such as ...

ABSTRACT Zircon is a common, highly refractory accessory mineral found in sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks that forms through various processes (e.g., magmatic, hydrothermal, metamorphic growth and recrystallization). Trace element compositions of detrital zircon have been widely applied to understanding tectonic processes and continental ...
