Magnesium isotopic fractionation during basalt differentiation is commonly thought to be negligible at current levels of analytical precision. However, Mg isotopic variation of∼ …
The geochemistry of global mantle melts suggests that both mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB) and ocean island basalts (OIB) sample lithological and temperature heterogeneities …
The transition from mafic to felsic upper continental crust (UCC) is crucial to habitability of Earth, and may be related to the onset of plate tectonics. Thus, defining when this crustal …
Titanium offers a burgeoning isotope system that has shown significant promise as a tracer of magmatic processes. Recent studies have shown that Ti isotopes display significant mass …
Subduction zone systems are central to a multitude of processes from the evolution of the continental crust to the concentration of metals into economically viable deposits. The …
High-temperature equilibrium and kinetic stable isotope fractionation during partial melting, fractional crystallization, and other igneous differentiation processes has been observed in …
Weathering is a key process controlling V transport from the continental crust to the hydrosphere. To understand V behavior during chemical weathering, we investigated the …
Vanadium, a potentially toxic metal, is enriched in the environment from anthropogenic releases, particularly during fossil fuel production and use and steel manufacturing. Metal …
This review describes the stable isotope character of the Earth's mantle, the 2900 km thick silicate layer between the core and crust that comprises 67% of the Earth's mass and 84% of …
