The origin and evolution of Earth's nitrogen
Y Li - National Science Review, 2024 - academic.oup.com
Nitrogen is a vital element for life on Earth. Its cycling between the surface (atmosphere+
crust) and the mantle has a profound influence on the atmosphere and climate. However …

Inefficient nitrogen transport to the lower mantle by sediment subduction
The fate of sedimentary nitrogen during subduction is essential for understanding the origin
of nitrogen in the deep Earth. Here we study the behavior of nitrogen in slab sediments …

Alteration enrichment of nitrogen in the gabbroic oceanic crust: Implications for global subducting nitrogen budget and subduction-zone nitrogen recycling
Uptake of nitrogen (N) during hydrothermal alteration of oceanic crust makes the altered
oceanic crust (AOC) a significant N reservoir in parallel to seafloor sediments. While N …

[HTML][HTML] Equilibrium partitioning and isotopic fractionation of nitrogen between biotite, plagioclase, and K-feldspar during magmatic differentiation
A significant portion of the continental crust is composed of plutonic igneous rocks. However,
little is known about the geochemical behaviour of N between the different minerals during …

Nitrogen behavior during fluid-rock interaction in a continental subduction zone: Results from the UHP Dora-Maira Massif whiteschists and Eastern Alps leucophyllites
Deep-Earth cycling of nitrogen (N) along the subduction pathway, remains relatively poorly
understood, particularly that related to deep subduction of continental crust. The ultrahigh …

Nitrogen isotopes as a robust tracer of fluid activities and mineral reactions in regional metamorphism
Regional metamorphism is characterized by complicated mineral-mineral reactions and fluid-
mineral interactions, which may promote elemental migration and ore genesis. A robust …

Magmatic N2 degassing dominates nitrogen loss during sediment subduction and granitoid genesis
Subducting sediments contain much more abundant nitrogen (N) than the other slab
components. The fate of sedimentary N along subduction directly determines the quantity of …

Metabasic rocks as important nitrogen carriers to forearc depths: Implications for deep nitrogen cycling
Understanding deep nitrogen (N) cycling better requires investigating the delivery of N to
subduction systems via various lithologies. Input to subduction zones through mafic rocks is …
