Abstract We modeled the evolution of the terrestrial Magma Ocean using the short‐lived 182Hf‐182W isotope system (t1/2 = 8.9 Myr) in a multi‐reservoir early Earth. We start with a chondritic Earth at T0 = 4.567 Ga. Core segregates and attains its present‐day mass, W elemental and isotopic (182W/184W) composition by the end of core formation (TCF).

How Do Passive Margins Convert to Active Margins?
Abstract There has been a long debate about how passive (Atlantic‐type) margins can convert to active (Andean) margins, particularly if they can do so directly, or some other process such as an arc‐continent collision must intervene (Burke et al., 1984; Dewey, 1969, https://doi.org/10.1016/0012‐821x(69)90089‐2; Kusky & Kidd, 1985).

Abstract The Basque‐Cantabrian Pyrenees experienced Early Cretaceous rifting and latest Cretaceous to Cenozoic inversion, with the presence of prerift Upper Triassic Keuper salt influencing how deformation was accommodated. Considerable disagreement exists on the degree of decoupling of supra‐ and subsalt deformation, the amount of thin‐skinned ...

Abstract This study introduces the application of the 2D weighted compact gravity inversion technique to model crustal thickness and intracrustal discontinuities in the Aegean region, encompassing both marine and terrestrial areas over a significant area of 430 km × 333 km.

ABSTRACT The southern Dora‐Maira Massif, where coesite was first discovered 40 years ago, is among the most studied and better known example of high/ultra‐high‐pressure (HP/UHP) terranes. Previous to this study, the Polymetamorphic Basement Complex of the southern Dora‐Maira Massif has been defined as a nappe stack consisting of three juxtaposed ...
