Short-and long-term processes at or close to the subduction plate interface (eg, mineral
transformations, fluid release, seismicity and more generally deformation) might be more …

Plate tectonic forcing leads to changes in the physical conditions that affect the lithosphere.
In response to such changes, notably the local temperature (T) and pressure (P), rocks …

The balance between the subduction of carbonate mineral-bearing rocks into Earth's mantle
and the return of CO2 to the atmosphere by volcanic and metamorphic degassing,,, is critical …

The maximum-pressure Psingle bondT conditions (P max–T) and prograde Psingle bondT
paths of exhumed subduction-related metamorphic rocks are compared to predictions of …

The Alps are amongst the best subduction archives in the world, with abundant blueschists
and eclogites preserving fragments of mantle, gabbros, thinned continental margin and …

Garnet could be the ultimate petrochronometer. Not only can you date it directly (with an
accuracy and precision that may surprise some), but it is also a common rock-forming and …

This study presents a new laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-
ICPMS) based U-Pb geochronometric method for dating grossular-andradite (grandite) …

Garnet's potential as a chronometer of tectonometamorphic processes and conditions was
first recognized over 30 years ago. The Sm–Nd and Lu–Hf systems have since emerged as …

The fate of subducted CO2 remains the subject of widespread disagreement, with different
models predicting either wholesale (up to 99%) decarbonation of the subducting slab or …

At the core of petrochronology is the relationship between geochronology and the
petrological evolution of major mineral assemblages. The focus of this chapter is on …
