Mesozoic–Cenozoic Thermochronology of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan System, NW China

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Tectonothermal history of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan system compared with the major tectonic events at far‐field plate margins. ABSTRACT The Tarim Basin, an oil‐bearing basin in northwest China, is tectonically and sedimentologically linked to the Southern Tianshan Orogenic Belt.

Deep fault sliding rates for Ka-Ping block of Xinjiang based on repeating earthquakes

Open Geosciences
The seismically active Ka-Ping Block within Xinjiang, China, represents a zone of potential earthquake hazards, and existing surface measurements cannot fully reflect the area’s sub-surface slip rates.

Holocene climate oscillations, seismotectonic events and human–environmental interactions reconstructed from the Giannades palaeolake on Corfu (Eastern Mediterranean, Greece)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Mediterranean is particularly sensitive to rapid climate changes (RCCs) during the Holocene. An increasing number of natural climate archives revealed that socio‐economic developments were influenced by such RCCs since the Palaeolithic. However, multi‐millennial and high‐resolution archives are still rare and often located in mountainous ...

Tectonic control on great earthquake periodicity in south-central Chile

Communications Earth & Environment
Multi-millennial records of great megathrust earthquakes have highlighted differences in periodicity and recurrence behavior. Understanding tectonic processes responsible for these differences is relevant for fault mechanics and hazard models.

Unveiling the Crystal Structure of Sanidine: A Polarized Raman and Ab Initio Simulation Exploration

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
This study combines polarized Raman spectroscopy and ab initio calculations to assign theoretical vibrational modes to observed spectra. Polarized Raman spectra were collected in six geometries (40–1200 cm−1). Theoretical predictions via DFT show good agreement with experiments, though some discrepancies point to influences like trace elements and ...

Palaeoenvironmental changes recorded at the Velika Vrbica loess‐palaeosol sequence, Wallachian Basin, during MIS 3–MIS 1

Boreas, EarlyView.
This study presents a detailed investigation of the Velika Vrbica loess‐palaeosol sequence, situated in the Wallachian Basin of northeastern Serbia, with the aim to reconstruct palaeoenvironmental changes spanning Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 3 to 1. Using optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating, low field magnetic susceptibility (χlf), and mass ...

Beachrock formation influenced by co‐seismic deformation and relative sea‐level changes during the Holocene near the Gulf of Saros, Türkiye (NE Aegean Sea)

Boreas, EarlyView.
This is the first proof of beachrock found on the nearshore of the Gulf of Saros. Beachrock generation was influenced by tectonic activity, geomorphological processes, and sedimentation. The Late Holocene beachrock deposits were altered by co‐seismic deformation.

The First 10 Million Years of Rear‐Arc Magmas Following Backarc Basin Formation Behind the Izu Arc

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
IODP Site U1437 is located in the Izu rear‐arc region, approximately 330 km west of the Izu‐Bonin trench axis. The oldest four units (Units IV through Unit VII) include volcaniclastic sediment and in situ hyaloclastites.

New Magnetite Reference Material for SIMS δ18O Measurements and a Study of Precision and Accuracy Due to Crystal Orientation Effects

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points A new magnetite reference material (PF21mt) is available for δ18O measurements by SIMS. Reproducibility of measurement results in two laboratories suggest orientation bias of ±2‰ (2s) at 20 keV. Repeatability improves to ±1‰ (2s) when using a 13 keV protocol, suggesting reduced orientation bias. In situ isotope ratio measurements provide the
