Heat Advection During Exhumation Can Explain High Temperatures Along the Subduction Plate Interface

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The pressure–temperature (P−T) $(P-T)$ evolution of subduction zone plate interfaces governs metamorphism, fluid migration, deformation, and seismicity. Temperature estimates from natural rocks are frequently higher than those predicted by subduction models, particularly for P< $P< $ 2.5 GPa.

Cenozoic Subduction Polarity Reversal Within the Celebes Sea Inferred From Teleseismic Tomography

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Sulawesi and Borneo are tectonically complex islands with multistage subduction histories stretching back through the Cenozoic. Seismic studies have played an important role in helping to unravel this history, with spatial distributions of earthquakes tracking actively subducting slabs. In contrast, old or relict aseismic slabs are illuminated

The Paleo‐Tethys Suture Zone in the Afghan Hindu Kush‒Pamir: Geo‐Thermochronology, Geochemistry, Tectonics

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract In the Afghan Hindu Kush, the 223–209 Ma (≤800°C) Salang batholith is part of the Silk‐Road magmatic arc that was built on ∼40‐km‐thick Turan‐Karakum block continental crust. The batholith constitutes the hanging wall of the Herat‐Panjshir‐Badakhshan—the Paleo‐Tethys—suture zone, vestige of the subducted Paleozoic‐early Mesozoic Paleo‐Tethys ...

Tourmaline chemistry and investigation of its formation conditions in the northern intrusive body of the Nain ophiolite complex in the northeast of Isfahan Province [PDF]

open access: yesپترولوژی
IntroductionGeographically, the granitoid intrusion under investigation is located in Ardestan, in the northeastern part of Isfahan Province and to the north of the Nain ophiolitic complex, between longitudes 52°50′ to 53°03′ E and latitudes 33°09′N to ...

Late Triassic Hydroclimatic Changes in Central China Linked to Evolving Mountain Topography

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract During the Late Triassic, tropical Pangea drifted northward into subtropical latitudes and became progressively drier. In contrast, South China, despite experiencing a similar latitudinal shift, transitioned from an arid to humid climate. Based on the sedimentary record of the Zigui Basin, this study constrains the arid to humid climatic shift

Abrupt Along‐Strike Change of Shallow Seismicity in Central and Southern Myanmar: Insights From High‐Resolution Local‐Earthquake Catalogs and Focal Mechanisms

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Myanmar's high seismic hazard is underscored by the 2025 Mw 7.7 earthquake on the Sagaing Fault, yet its seismicity patterns and underlying controls remain poorly understood. Using new seismic data from the 2nd‐phase array of the China‐Myanmar Geophysical Survey in the Myanmar Orogen, we construct a high‐resolution catalog of 1,819 local ...

Deciphering depositional controls and evolution of a lacustrine supradetachment basin through facies analysis: Gördes Basin, Western Türkiye

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
The lacustrine Gördes Supradetachment Basin was developed along the Simav detachment fault during postorogenic extension in the north of the Menderes Massif in western Anatolia. The basin‐fill succession is represented by alluvial fan, Gilbert‐type delta, shoal‐water delta, foreshore, shoreface, offshore‐transition and peat‐forming mire deposits.

Chromitite deposits of Ufaley ultramafic massif (South Urals)

open access: yesGeoresursy
Data on the morphology, composition, textural and structural features of chromite deposits of the Ufaley ultramafic massif are presented. The mineralogical and compositional features of the host ultramafic rocks allow us to interpret them as depleted ...
