Apatites crystallized from different types of igneous rocks show significant variations in the abundances some minor and trace elements. In this study, electron probe microanalysis laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry were used to determine concentrations 25 elements apatite separated three principal rock Transhimalayan plutonic suite: S-type granites, I-type Gangdese batholith post-collisional adakites.

Abstract The origin and geodynamic evolution of peak Early Cretaceous magmatism in the southern Great Xing'an Range, North China, have long been controversial. Here we report new U‐Pb zircon ages (141–129 Ma) a suite dioritic‐granitic rocks from central Inner Mongolia, far sutures or plate boundaries Paleo‐Pacific Mongol‐Okhotsk oceans, thus delineating an intracontinental magmatic province, which had activity at 130–120 Ma. Dioritic including diorite, tonalite, granodiorite shows variable ε...
<title>Abstract</title> The Tatun Volcano Group (TVG) in northern Taiwan is part of the Northern Volcanic Zone (NTVZ), formed an extensional back-arc setting at western end Ryukyu subduction system. Recent studies have shown that TVG much younger than previously thought, though reliable eruption ages are still scarce, complicating reconstruction its eruptive history. In this study, we used high-precision <sup>40</sup>Ar/<sup>39</sup>Ar dating plagioclase and groundmass, along with U-Th...
Abstract Chemical weathering modulates carbon transfer between the crust, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. The extent to which microbial processes are involved in mineral dissolution remains elusive. Here, we performed geochemical molecular analyses of river water other materials collected from a rapidly exhuming catchment eastern Taiwan. In addition solute generation driven primarily by pyrite-induced carbonate weathering, highly skewed community compositions with abundant Sulfuricurvum...

Encircled by arcs and trenches, the western Pacific region of Philippine Sea is exposed to trans-oceanic tsunamis pumice rafts. However, shortage extended archive has limited our knowledge tsunami recurrence, sources, drifting routes. This study identifies a backshore colluvium with three new gravel layers in northern Taiwan, stratigraphically below four previously reported pumice-bearing paleotsunami deposits from last millennium. The are attributed tsunamis, based on foreshore-derived...
Abstract Cenozoic magmatism occurs throughout West Sulawesi, Indonesia, yet its detailed evolution remains enigmatic due mainly to the scarcity of precise dating. Here, we report new whole-rock geochemical and zircon U-Pb-Hf isotopic data plutonic/volcanic rocks river sediments from Sulawesi constrain petrogenesis magmatic tempo. The are intermediate felsic (SiO2 = 58.1–68.0 wt%), high-K calc-alkaline shoshonitic (K2O 2.2–6.0 metaluminous weakly peraluminous, I-type in composition. Trace...
This study focused on the chemistry of sedimentary pore fluids to clarify hydrothermal fluid migrating within sediments at Geolin Mounds (GLM) and Mienhua Volcano (MHV) fields, southernmost Okinawa Trough, where are characterized by covering thick sediment. The significant downward decrease in Mg2+ (low 23.3 mmol L−1) concurrent increase Li+ (up 2,269 μmol implied a substantial influence fluid, which might be associated with high-temperature (>350 °C) rock/sediment-fluid interaction. best...
