Abyssal peridotites are ultramafic rocks collected from mid-ocean ridges that are the
residues of adiabatic decompression melting. Their compositions provide information on the …

Ubiquitous heterogeneity in the Earth's mantle has been documented by numerous
chemical and isotopic analyses of oceanic basalts. Despite the ever-increasing amount of …

摘要华北岩石圈减薄是近十年来国内外研究的热门课题, 但关于岩石圈减薄的具体时间,
减薄幅度, 空间分布范围, 机制及其构造控制因素, 多有争论. 本文对上述问题进行了全面的回顾 …

Basalts and mantle peridotites of mid-ocean ridges are thought to sample Earth's upper
mantle. Osmium isotopes of abyssal peridotites uniquely preserve melt extraction events …

It is widely accepted that the lithosphere beneath the eastern portion of the North China
Craton (NCC) has suffered extensive thinning and destruction since the Mesozoic. The …

Earth as an Evolving Planetary System, Fourth Edition discusses key topics dealing with the
evolution and interaction through time of Earth's crust, mantle, core, atmosphere …

The origin of enriched mantle (EM) sources remains an unsolved problem for constraining
the composition and chemical evolution of the Earth's mantle, because a wealth of different …

Ophiolites, which represent segments of oceanic lithosphere obducted onto the continental
crust, provide an important window into processes such as continental rifting, mantle …

The highly siderophile elements (HSE) pose a challenge for planetary geochemistry. They
are normally strongly partitioned into metal relative to silicate. Consequently, planetary core …

Diamond crystallization ages are essential information for science and industry, leading to
an understanding of how, why, and where diamonds form in Earth and how best to find …
