Journal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Orogenic belts that sustain elevated temperatures at intermediate crustal depths for tens of millions of years are known as hot orogens. The evolution of these hot orogens is largely influenced by thermal maturation, primarily driven by the distribution of heat‐producing elements (HPEs), such as K, Th and U in the overthickened crust.

Tomographic image of the crust and uppermost mantle of the Ionian and Aegean regions
Annals of Geophysics, 1997 We present a tomographic view of the crust and uppermost mantle beneath the Central Mediterranean area obtained from P-wave arrival times of regional earthquakes selected from the ISC bulletin.

Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Structurally controlled hydrothermal dolomitization, commonly driven by high‐pressure, high‐temperature fluid–rock reactions, offers insights into the tectonic evolution of sedimentary basins and the geochemical composition of their diagenetic fluids.

Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite high convergence velocity, the southern Ryukyu subduction has relatively low and sparse instrumental seismicity, in contrast with the Yaeyama Islands, hit by huge tsunamis over the last few thousand years. This study explores the potential of deep marine sediments to record past large earthquakes and tsunamis.

TERRAIN TECTONICS OF THE CENTRAL ASIAN FOLDED BELT
Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015 The terrain analysis concept envisages primarily a possibility of approximation of fragments / terrains of various geodynamic settings which belong to different plates. The terrain analysis can supplement the theory of plate tectonics in solving problems

Fe Oxidation State and Oxygen Isotope Composition of Diverse Metasomatized Peridotite Rocks
Terra Nova, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Metasomatic fluids are thought to be oxidising agents that react with the surrounding mantle rocks, causing changes in the bulk Fe3+/ΣFe, their redox state, and affecting the partitioning of trace elements and the fractionation of O isotopes. Worldwide distributed metasomatized peridotites represent the ideal case study to investigate the role

Geochemistry, Geophysics, GeosystemsIn the regime of plate tectonics, the subduction of an oceanic plate generally terminates with the collision and accretion of continental terranes. Then, a new subduction zone may form in the neighboring oceanic plates, which is defined as the terrane ...

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.
