This study investigates the effect of incorporating the Devil's Mountain Fault (DMF) and its interaction with the Leech River Valley Fault (LRVF) on the elastic surface deformation hazard in and near the city of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Previously, the surface deformation hazard of the region has been characterized by considering the LRVF ...

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

Micrometer analysis of millimeter lines of Raman spectra concludes in the association of anatase and graphitized organic matter (graphogen). The photosynthetic microorganisms at the origin of the microbialites produce O2, which is transformed by TiO2 into reactive species that, in turn, decompose the organic matter of the microorganisms. ABSTRACT Raman

Near the western margin of the highly productive Labrador Sea, the Labrador Current creates a large and steep oceanographic front between the Arctic‐origin shelf waters and the Atlantic offshore waters (i.e. the Labrador Front), presumably segregating or accumulating plankton communities.

Exhumed eo‐Alpine High‐Pressure Rocks Fed Campanian Turbidites in Eastern Sardinia
Abstract This study investigates the detrital record of the early orogenic evolution of the Sardinia‐Calabria system, preserved in Upper Cretaceous arenites exposed in eastern Sardinia. Sardinia and Corsica form a continental block that includes a segment of the Alpine orogen and of its former foreland basin.

Tracing Continental Basalt Sources and Mantle Processes Using Fe Stable Isotopes
Abstract Iron (Fe) isotopes have emerged as powerful tracers of mantle source heterogeneity and melting processes, yet the mechanisms producing heavy Fe isotope signatures (high δ57Fe values) in intraplate basalts remain debated. Competing interpretations include partial melting of recycled pyroxenite domains versus carbonate‐induced oxidation of a ...

Abstract This study integrates new zircon U–Pb ages, zircon εHf(t)–δ18O isotopic data, and whole‐rock geochemistry to refine the temporal and spatial framework of magmatism in the southern Northern Andes (SNA) from ∼65 to 6 Ma. The San Lucas, Catamayo, Portachuela, and Gonzanamá batholiths and magmatic suites, along with Late Miocene plutons, display ...

Pressurization of Shallow Magma Reservoir Preceding Basaltic Eruptions at an Open‐Vent Volcano
Abstract Open‐vent volcanoes are characterized by the persistent activity of outgassing, lava effusion and mild explosions, which is, however, occasionally interrupted by more violent explosive activity (paroxysm), for example, Stromboli (Italy). In spite of the different (two orders of magnitude) explosive intensities and different petrological magma ...

Constraining the Permeability and Outer‐Rise Hydration at the Central America Margin
Abstract Subduction zones are important drivers of Earth's geochemical evolution; the presence of water within the subduction system has substantial implications for geohazards, including the style of seismicity and the volume of magma generated at arc volcanoes.
