Monazite and Xenotime U‐Pb Geochronology and Thermometry of the Blue Ridge and Inner Piedmont of North Carolina: Implications for the Thermal‐Metamorphic Evolution of the Southern Appalachian Metamorphic “Core”

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The southern Appalachian orogen preserves a complex distribution of metamorphism and deformation varying in timing, magnitude, and spatial extent. These complexities give rise to disparate interpretations for southern Appalachian tectonic evolution, which complicates the testing and interpretation of tectonic models in this system.

Calorimetric thermobarometry of experimentally shocked quartz [PDF]

, 1994
Structural damage in experimentally shock-metamorphosed, granular quartz is quantitatively measurable by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Shock-induced loss of crystallinity is witnessed by disappearance of the alpha/beta phase transformation and

Plagioclase‐Saturated Melt Hygrothermobarometry and Plagioclase‐Melt Equilibria Using Machine Learning

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Compositions of plagioclase‐melt pairs are commonly used to constrain temperatures (T), dissolved water contents (H2O) and pressures (P) of pre‐eruptive magma storage and transport.

Quantitative Assessment of Peridotite Tectonomagmatic Affinities Using Compositional Data Analysis and Explainable Machine Learning

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Peridotites record the compositional evolution of the lithospheric and asthenospheric mantle across plume‐related lithospheres, convergent margins, and rift‐related volcanic environments; however, their tectonomagmatic affinities are commonly difficult to resolve using traditional low‐dimensional geochemical discrimination diagrams.

Magmatic evolution and architecture of an oceanic intraplate volcano: Vesteris Seamount, Atlantic Ocean

Frontiers in Earth Science
Vesteris is a large (33 × 27 km) and young (summit age: 0.65–0.010 Ma) intraplate seamount in the Greenland Sea, formed from ocean island basalt (OIB) magmatism.

Applications and Limitations of Elastic Thermobarometry: Insights From Elastic Modeling of Inclusion‐Host Pairs and Example Case Studies

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Elastic thermobarometry can be used to constrain the pressure and temperature conditions of mineral crystallization by exploiting the difference in the elastic evolution of a mineral inclusion and its host during cooling and decompression.

Picroilmenites in Yakutian kimberlites: variations and genetic models [PDF]

Solid Earth, 2014
Major and trace element variations in picroilmenites from Late Devonian kimberlite pipes in Siberia reveal similarities within the region in general, but show individual features for ilmenites from different fields and pipes.

Tracking Deep Magma Migration Through Diffuse CO2 Degassing: Insights From Piton de la Fournaise Volcano (2013–2023)

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Volcano monitoring requires identifying and distinguishing physico‐chemical processes at various depths within magma plumbing systems and their links to volcanic activity. Long‐term monitoring of deep magma reservoirs, extending down to tens of kilometers, is crucial even though signals from these depths are often altered or attenuated before ...

Lithospheric origin of a diamond from the Rio Sorriso area, Mato Grosso State, Brazil

Frontiers in Geochemistry
Diamonds are unique samples that enlarge our vision of the physical and chemical reactions occurring in Earth’s deep, inaccessible mantle. By investigating the minerals and fluids trapped within them, it is possible to ascertain the key conditions ...

Seismic Constraints on Temperature, Partial Melt, and Lithosphere‐Asthenosphere Dynamics in the Southwestern United States

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The southwestern United States hosts well‐documented and dramatic variations in topography, seismicity, heat flow, magmatism, and seismic velocity structure. This region offers opportunities to investigate how processes such as temperature and partial melt are related to the Lithosphere‐Asthenosphere Boundary (LAB), and how they ultimately ...
