Apatite as a Proxy for Reconstructing Magma Mixing Histories in Granitoids
Abstract Apatite is a common accessory mineral in granites and mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs), and its textural and compositional characteristics can record dynamic magmatic evolution processes. Apatites from the Early Cretaceous Sanguliu granite and its MMEs in the Liaodong Peninsula exhibit pronounced compositional heterogeneities. In this study,

Detailed geochronology from two compositionally distinct generations of dikes and sills intruded into the Alta metamorphic aureole, north‐central Utah, complement previous geochronologic studies from the Alta stock, providing information on the timing of

Abstract The rarity of natural rocks that specifically record the physicochemical conditions of the subduction interface strongly hampers pertinent studies on metamorphic trajectories of high‐pressure (HP) rocks and related fluid–rock interactions. This study examines an oceanic eclogite block from the Huwan shear zone in the Hong'an orogen.

Since the advent of detrital geochronology, significant progress has been made in the study of sedimentary sources. The detrital zircon U–Pb age spectrum, especially when combined with zircon Hf isotopes, provides a powerful tool for determining the ...

ABSTRACT Microporous carbonate rocks typically record complex diagenetic histories driven by microbial activity and fluid interactions within multiple diagenetic environments. The relative roles of meteoric and burial diagenetic processes in pore evolution remain debated, particularly within Cretaceous carbonate systems of the Middle East, as does the ...

ABSTRACT Previous studies have documented genetic divergence within the last few million years between northern and southern populations of terrestrial plants and animals along the Baja California peninsula, with many studies hypothesising that the divergence is due to an ancient seaway that crossed the central peninsula and created a physical barrier ...

A Shallow‐Marine Ecosystem Before Initial Tibetan Plateau Uplift
Abstract The uplift of the Tibetan Plateau profoundly influences global atmospheric circulation, sediment transport, and biodiversity, but its pre‐uplift marine paleoenvironment remains poorly understood. Here we report the first discovery of an in situ benthic fossil assemblage from the Puga area in central Tibet, which was deposited on a shallow ...

Past the First Date: Ensemble Concordant–Discordant Comparison for Zircon Pb‐Loss Analysis
Zircon uranium–lead (U–Pb) geochronology is a cornerstone of Earth science for resolving the timing of deep‐time processes, yet the U–Pb system does not always behave as a closed chronometer.
