Early development of anoxia prior to the main euxinic phase of the Jenkyns Event on the margin of the Western Tethys (Sachrang Basin, Eastern Alps)

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although the global expansion of oxygen‐depleted marine environments during the Early Toarcian Jenkyns Event (or Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event) is primarily inferred from successions in the NW European epicontinental basins, the timing of the expansion of anoxia in Tethyan basins, where hydrography potentially played a minor role, is poorly ...

Late‐Stage Rift Evolution at Back Arc Basins: Insights From a Tomography Experiment at Orca Volcano, Bransfield Basin

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Back‐arc basins provide insights into the processes governing the evolution of continental rifting to seafloor spreading. The Bransfield basin hosts a back arc rift that is hypothesized to be in the late stages of this transition.

Siliceous sponges or seawater as a silicon source? Tracing silicon burial pathways of the Upper Cretaceous opal‐CT deposits using δ30Si and δ7Li

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Classical models of formation of sedimentary siliceous rocks (flint, chert, opoka) commonly assume that the Cretaceous marine silicon (Si) cycle was primarily biologically controlled, broadly analogous to the modern ocean. In this framework, siliceous sponges are regarded as the principal source of dissolved silica (dSi) to sediment porewaters,

Rift Development, Tectonic Forcings, and Magmatic Feedbacks at Santorini and Kolumbo Volcanoes Constrained by Scientific Drilling and Core‐Seismic Integration

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Volcanism in continental rifts, rifted volcanic arcs, and back‐arc basins is fundamentally coupled with crustal extension. However, the precise geometry and timing of the fault systems that facilitate magma transport and accommodate extension remain ...

Salt Range Formation of Pakistan Preserves Unique Record of Volcanic Fertilization During the Ediacaran Shuram Excursion

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thin, discontinuous, organic‐rich oil shale beds in the siliciclastic‐evaporitic Salt Range Formation (SRF) of Pakistan are of approximate Neoproterozoic to Cambrian age based on stratigraphic constraints. The beds are enriched (26–43 wt.% total organic carbon, TOC) in aliphatic organic matter (OM) of low thermal maturity despite their ...

Rare Earth Element Potential in the Araí Rift Metavolcanic, Central Brazil: Gamma‐Ray Signatures, Mineralogy and Exploration Implications

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although central Brazil hosts significant ion‐adsorption rare earth element (REE) deposits associated with A‐type granites, their coeval volcanic counterparts have been largely overlooked as exploration targets. This study demonstrates that acidic metavolcanic rocks of the Araí Group share strong radiometric, geochemical and mineralogical ...

Winged horses, rascals and discourse referents

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper discusses some remarks Kaplan made in ‘Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice’ concerning empty names. I show how his objections to a particular view involving descriptions derived from Ramsification can be avoided by a nearby alternative framed in terms of discourse reference.

Short-lived and discontinuous intraplate volcanism in the South Pacific: Hot spots or extensional volcanism? [PDF]

open access: yes
South Pacific intraplate volcanoes have been active since the Early Cretaceous. Their HIMU-EMI-EMII mantle sources can be traced back into the West Pacific Seamount Province (WPSP) using plate tectonic reconstructions, implying that these distinctive ...

Elevational variation in heart mass and suppression of hypoxia‐induced right ventricle hypertrophy in Andean leaf‐eared mice (Phyllotis)

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In lowland mammals that ascend to high elevation, hypoxia‐induced changes in the pulmonary circulation can give rise to hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) and associated right‐ventricle (RV) hypertrophy. Andean mice with broad elevational ranges have greater heart mass relative to body size at higher elevations, but they ...
