Dolomite luminescence thermochronometry reconstructs the low-temperature exhumation history of carbonate rocks in the central Apennines, Italy [PDF]
Communications Earth & EnvironmentThe lack of available thermochronological methods has so far hampered reconstructions of the cooling and exhumation histories in carbonate rock regions. Here we develop a new trapped charge thermochronometry tool based on the thermoluminescence signal of

Low‐temperature thermochronometry along the Kunlun and Haiyuan Faults, NE Tibetan Plateau: Evidence for kinematic change during late‐stage orogenesis [PDF]
Tectonics, 2013 The Tibetan Plateau is a prime example of a collisional orogen with widespread strike-slip faults whose age and tectonic significance remain controversial.

Trapped-charge thermochronometry and thermometry: A status review [PDF]
Chemical Geology, 2016 Abstract Trapped-charge dating methods including luminescence and electron spin resonance dating have high potential as low temperature ( 200 °C Ma− 1), or elevated-temperature underground settings (> 30 °C). Despite this limitation, trapped-charge thermochronometry comprises a diverse suite of versatile methods, and we explore potential future ...

Rapid Glacial Erosion at 1.8 Ma Revealed by 4He/3He Thermochronometry [PDF]
Science, 2005 Alpine glaciation and river incision control the topography of mountain ranges, but their relative contributions have been debated for years. Apatite ^(4)He/^(3)He thermochronometry tightly constrains the timing and rate of glacial erosion within one of ...

Hematite fault rock thermochronometry and textures inform fault zone processes
Journal of Structural Geology, 2020 Abstract Minerals on fault surfaces record fluid-rock interaction, strain, and/or heat during fault slip. Fault-hosted hematite is amenable to (U–Th)/He (He) thermochronometry. Hematite He dates reflect fault-related processes or exhumation, depending on hematite growth above or below the grain-size controlled closure temperature and processes that ...

Short communication: Modeling competing effects of cooling rate, grain size, and radiation damage in low-temperature thermochronometers [PDF]
Geochronology, 2022 Low-temperature multi-thermochronometry, in which the (U-Th) / He and fission track methods are applied to minerals such as zircon and apatite, is a valuable approach for documenting rock cooling histories and relating them to geological processes.

Bias and error in modelling thermochronometric data: resolving a potential increase in Plio-Pleistocene erosion rate [PDF]
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2021 Thermochronometry provides one of few methods to quantify rock exhumation rate and history, including potential changes in exhumation rate. Thermochronometric ages can resolve rates, accelerations, and complex histories by exploiting different closure ...
