ABSTRACT We present novel 3D subsidence data enabling vertical movements' quantification during the early formation of the Pyrenean retro‐wedge. From Cenomanian to Turonian times, subsidence is relatively low (~26 ± 10 m/Myr), corresponding to a brief 10 Myr thermal re‐equilibration of the European lithosphere following the hyperextended rift episode ...

ABSTRACT We employed cathodoluminescence (CL) to study deformed quartz phenocrysts from the Cretaceous granite porphyry in SW Japan and observed fracture‐like planar structures appearing as CL‐dark bands. These CL‐dark bands were aligned with low‐angle grain boundaries formed by subgrain rotation recrystallisation.

A 500‐kyr Pluvial Interval Triggered Lacustrine Carbon Burial in Late Cretaceous East Asia
Abstract The early Late Cretaceous hothouse was featured by intense storms and a prevailing monsoon climate, yet direct evidence for regional extreme precipitation events is rare. Here, we reconstruct local weathering and hydrological processes using magnesium and strontium isotopes (δ26Mg and 87Sr/86Sr) from lacustrine dolostones in the Upper ...

Abstract The “dolomite problem” refers to the scarcity of dolomite in Cenozoic marine environments compared with its abundance in earlier strata. This discrepancy has been attributed to changes in marine environments or to insufficient thermal maturity required for dolomite formation.

Abstract Accurate estimates of geothermal heat flow (GHF) are critical for predicting basal melting and identifying stable sites for ancient ice, yet GHF remains one of the least constrained boundary conditions for the Antarctic Ice Sheet. We evaluate nine published Antarctic GHF models against radar‐derived specularity content in the South Pole Basin (
