Significant Zr isotope variations in single zircon grains recording magma evolution history
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance Zircon, a common accessory mineral in crustal rocks, records plentiful and critical information on the Earth’s history. The isotopes of its major component, Zr, could be another powerful but unexplored tracer.

Application of Ti-in-zircon thermometry to granite studies: problems and possible solutions
Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, 2019 The application of the Ti-in-zircon thermometer to granitic rock requires consideration of $$a_{{{\text{TiO}}_{2} }}$$aTiO2 and $$a_{{{\text{SiO}}_{2} }}$$aSiO2 during zircon crystallization.
