Supercritical‐flow structures in a Cretaceous submarine channel–lobe transition zone, Point Loma Formation, California

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 3, June 2026.
We document meter‐scale antidune and cyclic‐step deposits in channel–lobe transition zone (CLTZ) deposits of the Upper Cretaceous Point Loma Formation in San Diego, California. These results provide new insights into sediment transport dynamics in CLTZ environments, which are critical for understanding reservoir connectivity and heterogeneity in ...

How Strong/Weak Is Epidote Relative to Plagioclase?

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
In natural lower crustal rocks, we observe that plagioclase breakdown is often partial as evidenced by the presence of epidote‐group minerals and the absence of the remaining reaction products for example, kyanite and quartz.

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

Progressively Fenitised Schist and Carbonatitic Clasts From a Metasomatic Aureole Beneath the Alkalic Dunedin Volcano, Otago, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Clasts of albite‐porphyroblastic quartzofeldspathic schist, derived from the Otago Schist basement, occur within the Port Chalmers Breccia, a diatreme at the centre of the Dunedin stratovolcano, New Zealand. Schists have undergone varying degrees of replacement reactions (at temperatures of 300° to >500°C) producing hornfelses, with Ca‐ and K‐enriched ...

Vertical and Spatial Geochemical Variations of Nishinoshima Volcaniclastic Deposits, Japan, During Episode 4

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Nishinoshima is a volcanic island in the Ogasawara Arc that has exhibited intermittent activity since 2013, including four major eruptive episodes: 2013–2015 (Episode 1), 2017 (Episode 2), 2018 (Episode 3), and 2019–2020 (Episode 4). Previous studies reported a change in eruption style—from a Strombolian eruption with lava flows (Episode 1 to the early

Reactivity of a plagioclase concentrate from the South African Bushveld Igneous Complex via extractive acid leaching vs. extractive roasting-leaching processes

Discover Materials
This study compared the reactivity of a plagioclase concentrate subjected to two processes: (1) direct acid leaching and (2) thermochemical treatment with ammonium sulfate followed by leaching.

The Occurrence and Morphology of Naturally Occurring Respirable Mordenite Mineral Fibres in New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Mordenite is a naturally occurring zeolite mineral that is the seventh most common zeolite mineral globally, forming at low temperatures (≥100°C) in hydrothermal systems. In New Zealand, extensive deposits of mordenite are commonly associated with areas of hydrothermal alteration, particularly in the Coromandel and Taupo Volcanic Zones.

Mapping Quartz and Feldspar Areal Abundance and Grain Sizes Using Integrated VTIR Data

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Mineral dust is sourced from arid regions around the globe, and its composition impacts regional and global environments by affecting radiation balance, cloud formation, nutrient deposition, and snowmelt. As such, mineral dust plays a key role in Earth's energy and biogeochemical budgets.

Integrating Olivine Diffusion Chronometry With Monitoring Data to Decipher the Magma Dynamics at the Submarine Fani Maoré Volcano

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Monitoring data are critical for understanding volcanic unrest and eruption, but they often lack the ability to constrain the pre‐eruptive magma processes. As such, an increasing number of studies couple monitoring data with petrological tools to obtain insights into the causes and durations of magmatic processes. The 2018–2020 eruption of the

Feasibility of Crosshole Seismic Tomography for Monitoring In Situ CO2 Mineral Storage in Basalts: A Rock Physics‐ and Seismic Modeling Study

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract In situ CO2 mineral storage is gaining increasing attention as a carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology to reduce anthropogenic CO2 emissions. So far, in situ CO2 mineral storage projects have been monitored predominantly using fluid‐ and isotope geochemical methods.
