Carbon Isotope and Abundance Systematics Reveal an Insignificant Crustal Sink of Mantle‐Derived CO2 in On‐Land Rift Zone Geothermal Systems

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Rift zones, both on land and submarine, are key pathways for mantle‐derived CO2 degassing to the Earth's surface. Fixation of CO2 as carbonates plays a critical role in regulating these emissions. This study examines carbon abundance and isotope compositions in hydrothermal fluids, altered rocks, and carbonates from geothermal systems in both ...

Tracing the origin of Roman mosaic tiles in Aquileia: Petrographic analysis of specimens from the suburbium

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 67, Issue 5, Page 1247-1266, October 2025.
Abstract This research represents the most extensive characterisation of Roman mosaic tesserae (tiles) from Aquileia, Italy, to date, examining 153 specimens. The study aimed to identify the lithotypes used in mosaics production through a multi‐analytical approach, which included colorimetric analysis, polarised light microscopy and scanning electron ...
