Negative Frictional Healing in Icelandic Geothermal (IDDP‐2) Core Samples: Potential Implications for Detachment‐Fault Mechanics

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Detachment faults in mid‐ocean ridge settings accommodate tectonic extension. These faults are potentially weakened by alteration through phyllosilicate‐ and amphibole‐mineral formation. Seven core samples taken from the Krafla and Reykjanes geothermal fields in Iceland allow for the study of the effect of mineral alteration on the frictional ...

Troodos: A Giant Serpentinite Diapir

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geosciences, 2011
Troodos is a classical ophiolite complex. It is proposed that the serpentinized harzburgites that now form the top of the mountain and represent the originally lowest part of the ophiolite sequence rose as a diapir. This diapiric rise is caused by the pervasive serpentinization of a suboceanic harzburgite, due to rock-sea water interaction.

Heat transport in serpentinites

open access: yesTectonophysics, 2003
Abstract The thermal transport properties thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity were examined for a variety of serpentinites as a function of temperature at ambient pressure. The thermal transport properties of serpentinites show an extraordinary behavior.

Epidote Records (De)hydration From the Seafloor Through Subduction and Underplating: Implications for Subduction Zone Fluid Budgets and Slow Slip

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract When, where, and how much fluid is released from subducting oceanic crust control deformation, element cycling, and magmatism in subduction zones. However, the palimpsest of tectonometamorphic processes in the exhumed rock record complicates the relation of geologic observations to geodynamic models of subduction fluid sources and transport ...

Serpentinite Slurries against Forest Fires

open access: yesOpen Journal of Forestry, 2015
Forest Fires Are One of the Commonest Natural Hazards. Forest Fires Make the largest Contribution to Co2 Emissions After the Burning of Fossil Fuels. Here a New technology is Proposed to Extinguish Forest Fires Not with Water, but with a Slurry of Serpentine.

Structure of the North‐Central Chile Subduction Zone From Local Earthquake Tomography

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The fluid cycle in subduction zones prescribes large parts of its structure and seismogenic behavior. Background seismicity inside the downgoing slab is linked to fluid release from dehydration reactions, whereas fluid overpressure along the plate interface can alter interplate coupling, megathrust earthquakes, and the presence or absence of ...

Fluid‐Driven Shear Instabilities in the Subducted Oceanic Mantle at Intermediate Depths: Insights From Western Alps Meta‐Ophiolites

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Serpentinites are major carriers of volatiles in deep subduction zones, releasing most fluids in the 500–650°C range. Despite fundamental implications for mass transfer and intermediate‐depth seismicity, the mechanical role of these fluids is unclear. To

Chromespinel and Magnetite as Indicators for Recognition of Genesis and History of Serpentinites in Baft Ophiolite Mélange (Kerman Province in Iran) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2013
Baft ophiolite mélange is a part of Naein-Baft ophiolite (southeast of Kerman province in Iran). Serpentinites from Baft ophiolite mélange contain different types of spinels such as chromite, chromespinel, ferritchromite and magnetite which can reveal ...

Fertilização silicatada na severidade de brusone e na incidência de insetos-praga em arroz irrigado Silicon fertilization on rice blast severity, insect pest incidence, and grain yield of irrigated rice

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2009
A ocorrência de brusone e insetos-praga tem limitado a produtividade de arroz irrigado na região tropical, razão que este trabalho foi conduzido com o objetivo de avaliar os efeitos do serpentinito calcinado e da volastonita na severidade de brusone, na ...
