The Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM, ~56 Ma) was one of the major global deep-time hyperthermal events past. Studies shallow-marine PETM records are crucial to understand continental hydrological response current warming. This study presents first detailed documentation in Xigaze forearc basin located along northern active margin eastern Tethys Ocean, and illustrates associated environme...

The Antarctic Peninsula preserves geological evidence of a long-lived continental margin with intrusive, volcaniclastic and accretionary complexes indicating convergent setting from at least the Cambrian to Cenozoic. We examine poorly understood units successions Palaeozoic Early Mesozoic develop detailed kinematic reconstructions for this section margin. use existing geochronology, along newly...

The end Permian mass extinction event is one of the most severe biotic crisis Phanerozoic. trigger this has been widely linked to massive volcanic activity associated with Siberian Traps Large Igneous Province through application multiple geochronological (e.g., UPb and ArAr dating) geochemical proxies C, Hg, Zn, Os, etc.). Of these proxies, a few osmium (187Os/188Os) records are available for ...

The timing and mechanism of the combination between South China Block (SCB) Indochina (IB) are controversial. Three ophiolitic mélange zones (Ailaoshan, Song Ma, Chay) have been proposed as suture within this collisional orogen. However, relationships among three corresponding tectonic belts unclear. In study, we present detailed structural data for belts. bulk architectures Ailaoshan, Chay cor...

Volcanic eruptions can release a large amount of volatiles, including sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide, into the atmosphere trigger regional and/or global perturbations climate environment. However, potential effect Linzizong volcanism, most intense widespread magmatism in southern Tibet, is not yet known. Here, systematic results fieldwork, spatial distribution analysis (area volume), zircon ...

Introduction: Bulk ureilites have near-chondritic abundances of trace siderophile elements (Fig. 1), which is difficult to reconcile with any igneous model for their silicates [1]. It is particularly problematic [2-4] for the smelting model in which silicate mg (molar Mg/[Mg+Fe]) is controlled by pressure-dependent carbon redox reactions [5-7]. The smelting reaction (FeO+C→Fe+CO) predicts a cor...

INTRODUCTION Since there have been a number of empirical observations that may lead to the conclusion of an increasing rate of risk behaviors in Romanian students, such as aggression, over-competitive conduct and lack of collaboration, immorality, peer pressure and even an increasing rate of suicide, and suicide attempts, we have undergone a study to indentify if there is a high rate of risk ty...

Key point in enabling smooth transition for students from higher education towards the work environment, is represented by a permanent dialogue, exchange of ideas and common projects between the two parties. A positive outcome of such collaborations leads to bridging a gap between academic requirements and applied knowledge using industry standard tools in the workplace. The paper highlights th...
