Abstract: Abstract Large amounts of high Ba Sr magmatism can be produced as the result of late accretion or decompression in the final stages of continental arc evolution in orogenic systems and leads to continental crustal… read more here.

Abstract: Highly siderophile elements (HSE), including platinum, provide powerful geochemical tools for studying planet formation. Late accretion of chondritic components to Earth after core formation has been invoked as the main source of mantle HSE. However,… read more here.

Abstract: Whether Earth’s water was delivered early or late in its formation is debated. The composition of Venus’s atmosphere may indicate that late accretion, the final stage of planet formation, delivered little water to the terrestrial… read more here.
