B‐Type Olivine Fabrics Within the Cumulate Buck Creek Ultramafic Body Emplaced During Southern Appalachian Taconic Subduction

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract The Buck Creek ultramafic complex is a fragment of oceanic cumulate emplaced into the lower Laurentian continental crust during Ordovician Taconic subduction. We document olivine fabrics in the relatively pristine dunites preserved from peak metamorphic conditions of ∼850°C and 1.0–1.4 GPa confining pressure.

Sensitivity Analysis of the Thermal Structure Within Subduction Zones Using Reduced‐Order Modeling

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract Megathrust earthquakes are the largest on Earth, capable of causing strong ground shaking and generating tsunamis. Physical models used to understand megathrust earthquake hazard are limited by existing uncertainties about material properties and governing processes in subduction zones.

Timing of Dike and Sill Emplacement in the Inner Aureole of the Alta Stock, Utah Determined by Zircon and Monazite Petrochronology

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract Detailed geochronology from two compositionally distinct generations of dikes and sills intruded into the Alta metamorphic aureole, north‐central Utah, complement previous geochronologic studies from the Alta stock, providing information on the timing of magmatism and the nature of emplacement.
