Using nearly four decades of seismic data from stations encompassing the northern, central, and southern Sierra Nevada along California's eastern border, geologists have uncovered signs of a critical ...

Deep beneath Iraq, a long-lost oceanic plate is breaking apart, causing shifts that stretch from southeastern Turkey to ...

Abstract: The Atlantic margin off Morocco with its neighbouring Jurassic oceanic crust is one of the oldest on earth. It is conjugate to the Nova Scotia margin of North America. The SISMAR marine ...

According to the thermal and pressure condition, a phase transition with a dehydration reaction can occur in the oceanic crust near the southern edge of the LFE active region. Once the dehydration ...

Because of the offset of the midocean ridge spreading centers, the crust on one side of a fracture zone will be older and therefore colder, more contracted, and deeper than the crust on the other side ...

Formation of continental and oceanic crust depletes the convecting mantle in certain elements, but some of these elements are returned to the mantle when the oceanic lithosphere sinks at ...

Tracking the thermal and petrologic evolution of magmatically robust fast spread lower ocean crust The four-dimensional development of lower oceanic crust: Integrated zircon trace element and high ...
