Subduction Initiation Simulation Results
How subduction initiates with mechanically unfavorable lithospheric heterogeneities is important and rarely studied. We investigate this with a geodynamic model for the Puysegur Incipient Subduction Zone (PISZ) south of New Zealand.

ABSTRACT Opening space for students to help shape knowledge building practices in the classroom—that is, epistemic agency—is necessary to achieve a variety of goals held by the science education community. As such, many scholars have explored how students might be positioned with, perceive, and take up epistemic agency.

Microplate Tectonics Through Earth History and Across Solid Multispheres
The evolution of tectonic microplates throughout Earth´s history as well as the transitions between microplates across different solid spheres offers a novel approach to expanding the traditional plate tectonics theory. ABSTRACT The evolution of tectonic microplates throughout Earth's history as well as the transitions between microplates across ...

ABSTRACT Lake sediments are natural archives of past environmental dynamics and how these systems have responded to past climate variability. Sediment geochemistry, governed by local geology and climate processes, is unique to each lake‐catchment and geochemical proxies must be validated for each study site.

Subduction Initiation and Mafic Intrusions: Rethinking the South China Sea-Luzon Connection
The conventional view suggests that the subduction of the South China Sea plate beneath Luzon occurred due to the oceanic lithosphere’s high density, facilitating subduction initiation.

Afghanite: A New Silicate‐Matrix Reference Material for In Situ Halogen and Sulfur Microanalysis
Key Points A new silicate matrix reference material for in situ chlorine and sulfur determination. Homogeneous across all measured elements. No matrix effects for Cl when calibrating silicate matrices, in contrast to scapolite, which causes systematic Cl overestimation of up to 13%.
