Geoscience Data JournalSince 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 ...

Garnet–monazite rare earth element relationships in sub-solidus metapelites: a case study from Bhutan [PDF]
, 2018 A key aim of modern metamorphic geochronology is to constrain precise and accurate rates and timescales of tectonic processes. One promising approach in amphibolite and granulite-facies rocks links the geochronological information recorded in zoned ...

Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The c. 1 Ga Diabaig Formation of north‐west Scotland preserves diverse lacustrine and fluvial facies and abundant microbial and non‐microbial surficial sedimentary features. 172.6 m of section was logged across seven localities to assess the distribution of microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS) relative to lithofacies, substrate ...

Record of Tethyan ocean closure and Indosinian collision along the Ailaoshan suture zone (SW China) [PDF]
, 2015 Zircon U–Pb and Lu–Hf isotopic data along with whole-rock elemental and Sr–Nd isotopic analytical results for the Xin'anzhai and Tongtiange granitic plutons in the Ailaoshan suture zone record the transition from subduction to collision associated with ...

Evaluation of the decay constant of uranium 235 from lead isotope ratios [PDF]
, 1966 The decay constant of U^(235) has been evaluated from the radiogenic Pb^(207)/Pb^(206) ratios of several cogenetic fractions of zircon and uranothorite, analyzed by conventional mass spectrometric methods.

Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding the processes that drive soil formation is crucial for developing sustainable land‐use strategies, as changing land‐use practices and climate change exacerbate soil erosion. The formation of substantial arable soils on carbonate bedrock requires substantial dust accretion as the underlying bedrock lacks siliciclastic material. In

Ductile Extrusion Triggered by Continental Collision in NE Brazil
Terra Nova, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Borborema Province in northeastern Brazil hosts one of the world's largest strike‐slip shear zone networks, active during the late Neoproterozoic assembly of West Gondwana. Whether these shear zones initiated during active continental collision or as a post‐orogenic response to far‐field stresses remains debated.

Nature and timing of Late Mississippian to Mid-Pennsylvanian glacio-eustatic sea-level changes of the Pennine Basin, UK [PDF]
, 2012 The Pennine Basin of northern England contains a comparatively complete Serpukhovian– Moscovian succession characterized by high-resolution ammonoid zonation and cyclic paralic sedimentation.
