ARCHEAN AND PALEOPROTEROZOIC HISTORY OF ROCK METAMORPHISM IN THE URALS CRUSTAL SEGMENT
Transactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2015 In the Urals, Archean and Paleoproterozoic formations were found in several polymetamorphic complexes which crop out as relatively small tectonic blocks (within the first thousands sq. km in area).

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 1, Page 20-46, January 2026.ABSTRACT Elevated heat flow associated with mafic magmatism in accretionary orogens has often been proposed as a driving mechanism for (ultra)high‐temperature (UHT) metamorphism and anatexis. The Sancheong–Hadong complex, located in the southern Yeongnam Massif, Korea, consists of a ca.

Cold deep subduction recorded by remnants of a Paleoproterozoic carbonated slab
Nature Communications, 2018 The onset of modern-style plate tectonics remains under debate. Here, Xu et al. report a cold thermal-gradient recorded in an eclogite xenolith in Paleoproterozoic carbonatite from orogen, and propose that modern-style subduction has operated since at ...

Physiology of nitrogen: A life or death matter
Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 1, Page 270-282, 1 January 2026.Abstract With each breath, four out of every five molecules we inspire are nitrogen (N2), since this gas constitutes ∼80% of the atmospheric air that surrounds us. Despite its abundance and unlike molecular oxygen, N2 has traditionally held less appeal among physiologists given its lack of reactivity and corresponding inability to support combustion or

Nature Communications, 2018 A Paleoproterozoic carbon isotope anomaly is likely linked to burial of oceanic cyanobacteria, but it is not clear how burial occurred. Here, the authors find that, under Paleoproterozoic pCO2 conditions, planktonic cyanobacteria increase ...

Crustal Evolution of the Himalaya since Paleoproterozoic
, 2022 Understanding the crustal evolution of any orogen is essential in delineating the nomenclature of litho units, stratigraphic growth, tectonic evolution, and, most importantly, deciphering the paleogeography of the Earth. In this context, the Himalayas, one of the youngest continent-continent collisional orogen on the Earth, has played a key role in ...
