Ca isotope geochemistry has great potential for improving our understanding of magmatic
systems and for tracing the deep Earth carbon cycle. There are still many open questions …

Lithological and isotopic heterogeneity in the mantle archive the mantle's melting history and
fingerprint crustal recycling processes coupling the deep Earth with the terrestrial biosphere …

Marine carbonates, the major carrier of carbon upon the upper crust, can be subducted into
the Earth's interior along with oceanic crust, and then returned to the surface through …

The geochemistry of global mantle melts suggests that both mid-ocean ridge basalts
(MORB) and ocean island basalts (OIB) sample lithological and temperature heterogeneities …

This chapter explores the growing body of stable and radiogenic Ca isotope measurements
in high temperature terrestrial materials and covers the emerging applications for Ca isotope …

The isotope composition of zinc (Zn) can be an important tracer of planetary formation and
differentiation, but estimates of the Bulk Silicate Earth (BSE) and the extent and origin of Zn …

Large Ca isotope variations recorded in mantle xenoliths and mantle-derived igneous rocks
have been widely used to decode the origin of mantle heterogeneity, especially to trace …

Crustal recycling can induce significant chemical and lithological heterogeneity of the
mantle. Ocean island basalts (OIBs) are the surface expressions of rising mantle plumes …

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 …

Subduction related metasomatism has been proposed to be one of the most important
processes that may cause Ca isotopic heterogeneities in the mantle. Back-arc basin basalts …
