Raising the Roof of the World: Intra‐Crustal Asian Mantle Supports the Himalayan‐Tibetan Orogen

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract The Himalayan‐Tibetan orogen formed via the ongoing collision of India and Asia. Its colossal elevations stem from buoyant crustal roots that doubled in thickness during continental collision, widely believed to result from Indian crust under‐thrusting its Asian counterpart and Asian crustal thickening. However, a single crustal layer of up to

The Tubotomaculum Enigma and the Rise of Benthic Life During the Opening of the Western Mediterranean Basin

open access: yesGeobiology, Volume 23, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT Large‐scale geological processes shape microbial habitats and drive the evolution of life on Earth. During the Oligocene, convergence between Africa and Europe led to the opening of the Western Mediterranean Basin, a deep‐ocean system characterized by fluid venting, oxygen depletion, and the absence of benthic fauna.

Coupling Phase Equilibrium Modelling and Apatite‐in‐Garnet Elastic Barometry to Unravel the P–T Path of the Micaschist Unit From the Zicavo Metamorphic Complex (Corsica, France)

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 43, Issue 7, Page 681-705, September 2025.
ABSTRACT To gain insights into the pressure–temperature evolution of a scarcely studied portion of the Variscan basement of Corsica in southern Europe, we combined phase equilibrium modelling, Zr‐in‐rutile thermometry and apatite‐in‐garnet elastic barometry. We investigated Grt‐St micaschist rocks containing garnet grains of several millimetres in size

Zircon (Re)crystallization During Metamorphism: Zircon Paragenesis in the Papua New Guinea Coesite Eclogite Revisited

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 43, Issue 7, Page 663-680, September 2025.
ABSTRACT The youngest known ultrahigh‐pressure (UHP) eclogite from Tumagabuna Island, a small island of the D'Entrecasteaux Islands chain in Papua New Guinea, exhibits zircon U–Pb age variations spanning a few million years. This age variation complicates the interpretation of the evolution of this high and ultrahigh‐pressure ([U]HP) terrane.
