The role of serpentinites in cycling of carbon and sulfur: Seafloor serpentinization and subduction metamorphism
JC Alt, EM Schwarzenbach, GL Früh-Green… - Lithos, 2013 - Elsevier
We summarize the uptake of carbon and sulfur during serpentinization of seafloor
peridotites, and discuss the fate of these volatiles during subduction of serpentinite. We use …

Velocity tomography of cross-sectional damage evolution along rock longitudinal direction under uniaxial loading
Rock pillars in rock engineering are affected by the stress concentration, which is uneven
and can lead to potential instability after loading disturbance. In this paper, considering the …

Evidence from ophiolites, blueschists, and ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic terranes that the modern episode of subduction tectonics began in Neoproterozoic time
RJ Stern - Geology, 2005 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Earth is the only known planet with subduction zones and plate tectonics, and this fact
demonstrates that special conditions are required for this mode of planetary heat loss …
