The Effect of Temperature and Physical State of Water on the Frictional Properties of Chlorite‐Altered Basaltic Gouges (Krafla Geothermal Field, Iceland)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Changes in the physical state of water may alter fault frictional properties in high‐temperature geothermal systems, yet they have been little studied. Here, we perform slide‐hold‐slide experiments to examine the frictional properties (frictional strength μss and frictional healing Δμ) of chlorite‐altered basalt from Krafla Geothermal Field ...

Scientific results from the deepened Lopra-1 borehole, Faroe Islands: The regional distribution of zeolites in the basalts of the Faroe Islands and the significance of zeolites as palaeotemperature indicators [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2006
The first maps of the regional distribution of zeolites in the Palaeogene basalt plateau of the Faroe Islands are presented. The zeolite zones (thomsonite-chabazite, analcite, mesolite, stilbite-heulandite, laumontite) continue below sea level and reach ...

X‐ray computed tomography study of terrestrial analog cores in preparation for Mars sample return

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 405-426, March 2026.
Abstract Mars Sample Return (MSR) is expected to transform planetary science by providing unprecedented access to pristine Martian material. Initial characterization in the sample receiving facility (SRF) will rely on nondestructive techniques such as X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to document the condition, distribution, and internal features of ...

Palagonitization of Volcanic Rocks in Polar Climates: The Case of Deception Island (Antarctica)

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract A detailed study of palagonitization in rocks from Deception Island—one of Antarctica's most active volcanoes—has been performed to advance our understanding of this alteration process. A detailed petrographic (optical and SEM), mineralogical (XRD), and mineral and glass spot geochemistry (EDS and EMP) characterization has been conducted on ...

Carbon Isotope and Abundance Systematics Reveal an Insignificant Crustal Sink of Mantle‐Derived CO2 in On‐Land Rift Zone Geothermal Systems

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Rift zones, both on land and submarine, are key pathways for mantle‐derived CO2 degassing to the Earth's surface. Fixation of CO2 as carbonates plays a critical role in regulating these emissions. This study examines carbon abundance and isotope compositions in hydrothermal fluids, altered rocks, and carbonates from geothermal systems in both ...

Use of native stilbite zeolite coupled with vermicompost for improving soil chemical properties and yield of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) grown on Aridic Calciusterts of Northern Ethiopia

open access: yesDiscover Sustainability
Nutrient deficiency and bioavailability in the low-carbon and alkaline soils of semiarid areas of Ethiopia are serious problems. Identifying novel approaches to managing soil fertility helps reverse soil degradation, thereby bolstering crop productivity ...

Rock Magnetic Evidence for the Seismogenic Environment of Large Earthquakes in the Motuo Fault Zone, Eastern Himalayan Syntaxis

open access: yesActa Geologica Sinica - English Edition, Volume 99, Issue 3, Page 896-907, June 2025.
Abstract Knowledge of the seismogenic environment of fault zones is critical for understanding the processes and mechanisms of large earthquakes. We conducted a rock magnetic study of the fault rocks and protoliths to investigate the seismogenic environment of earthquakes in the Motuo fault zone, in the eastern Himalayan syntaxis.

Frictional Stability of Laumontite Under Hydrothermal Conditions and Implications for Injection‐Induced Seismicity in the Gonghe Geothermal Reservoir, Northwest China

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 10, 28 May 2024.
Abstract Laumontite is a common and potentially frictionally unstable hydrothermal alteration product present in deep faults of the Gonghe EGS reservoir. We characterize the friction‐stability characteristics of synthetic laumontite gouge under in situ reservoir conditions. The pure laumontite gouge is frictionally strong (μ = 0.73–0.98) and the quartz/
