Lawsonite‐bearing metamorphic/metasomatic rocks form at high‐pressure–ultrahigh
pressure (HP–UHP) and low‐temperature (LT) conditions, commonly in Pacific‐type …

This contribution reviews the existing data on lawsonite stability and trace element
geochemistry, and provides new data for metabasaltic and metasedimentary (quartzite) …

The Franciscan Complex of California records over 150 million years of continuous E-
dipping subduction that terminated with conversion to a dextral transform plate boundary …

The thermal structure of subduction zones exerts a major influence on deep-seated
mechanical and chemical processes controlling arc magmatism, seismicity, and global …

The Franciscan subduction complex of California is considered a type example of a
subduction‐accretion system, yet the age of subduction initiation and relationship to the …

Alpine Corsica is crucial in understanding Western Mediterranean geodynamics. Available
paleotectonic models attribute the high-pressure terrains of Corsica to the Western Alps …

Lawsonite is an abundant hydrous mineral in oceanic crust, sediments, and metasomatic
rocks at depths of~ 45 to 300 km in most subduction zones, but it is rarely preserved in the …

We report the first findings of several occurrences of lawsonite and metamorphic aragonite
in the meta-sediments from the Combin Zone (Piemonte–Liguria ocean, Western Alps) …

High-pressure low-temperature rocks from Svalbard are an excellent target for studying
metamorphic reactions in Phanerozoic subduction zones. This study reveals the presence of …

The radiogenic isotope applications of the Lu-Hf system utilize variations in 176Hf resulting
from the radioactive decay of 176Lu to 176Hf and variations in the Lu/Hf ratios in rocks and …
