Neon diffusion kinetics and implications for cosmogenic neon paleothermometry in feldspars [PDF]

, 2017
Observations of cosmogenic neon concentrations in feldspars can potentially be used to constrain the surface exposure duration or surface temperature history of geologic samples.

The chronology and tectonic style of landscape evolution along the elevated Atlantic continental margin of South Africa resolved by joint apatite fission track and (U-Th-Sm)/He thermochronology [PDF]

, 2016
Atlantic-type continental margins have long been considered “passive” tectonic settings throughout the entire postrift phase. Recent studies question the long-term stability of these margins and have shown that postrift uplift and reactivation of ...

Thermal history analysis of granitic rocks in an arc-trench system based on apatite fission-track thermochronology: A case study of the Northeast Japan Arc

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2019
We applied apatite fission-track (AFT) thermochronometry to the Cretaceous-Paleogene granitic rocks across the southern part of the Northeast (NE) Japan Arc in order to elucidate the denudation history.

A Multi‐Proxy Approach Using Zircon (U‐Th)/He Thermochronometry and Biomarker Thermal Maturity to Robustly Capture Earthquake Temperature Rise Along the Punchbowl Fault, California

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
During an earthquake, work done to overcome fault friction is dissipated as heat. Coseismic temperature rise, critical for identifying and constraining the magnitude of past earthquakes, is difficult to accurately quantify.

Spatio-temporal evolution of intraplate strike-slip faulting: the Neogene-Quaternary Kuh-e-Faghan Fault, Central Iran [PDF]

, 2016
Central Iran provides an ideal region to study the long-term morphotectonic response to the nucleation and propagation of intraplate faulting. In this study, a multidisciplinary approach that integrates structural and stratigraphic field investigations ...

Thermal fluid activities along the Mozumi-Sukenobu fault, central Japan, identified via zircon fission-track thermochronometry

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2019
This study uses zircon fission-track (ZFT) thermochronometry to investigate thermal anomalies along the Mozumi-Sukenobu fault, central Japan, and assesses the most plausible mechanisms by which reheating events occurred.

From source to sink in central Gondwana: Exhumation of the Precambrian basement rocks of Tanzania and sediment accumulation in the adjacent Congo basin [PDF]

, 2016
Apatite fission track (AFT) and (U-Th)/He (AHe) thermochronometry data are reported and used to unravel the exhumation history of crystalline basement rocks from the elevated (>1000 m above sea level) but low-relief Tanzanian Craton.

Further evidence for early lunar magnetism from troctolite 76535 [PDF]

, 2017
The earliest history of the lunar dynamo is largely unknown and has important implications for the thermal state of the Moon and the physics of dynamo generation.

Patterns of Late Cenozoic exhumation deduced from apatite and zircon U-He ages from Fiordland, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2005
New apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He ages from the Fiordland region of New Zealand's South Island expand on earlier results and provide new constraints on patterns of Late Cenozoic exhumation and cooling across this region.
