DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2020.116656
Abstract: Abstract Serpentinization of mantle peridotite generates magnetite that is able to acquire a remanent magnetization parallel to the ambient geomagnetic field. The paleomagnetic direction of serpentine provides insights as to the timing of serpentinization. This… read more here.

Three‐Dimensional Teleseismic Elastic Reverse‐Time Migration With Deconvolution Imaging Condition and Its Application to Southwest Japan
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Geophysical Research Letters"
DOI: 10.1029/2023gl107446
Abstract: We have developed a novel deconvolution‐based reverse time migration method to image lithospheric structures using teleseismic data recorded by dense seismic arrays. Unlike traditional approaches that rely on the retrieval of Green's functions (or receiver… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/d13050185
Abstract: Rear-edge populations are of significant scientific interest because they can contain allelic variation not found in core-range populations. However, such populations can differ in their level of genetic diversity and divergence reflecting variation in life-history… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/min14090929
Abstract: A unique Li–Na metasomatic rock from Iwagi Islet in Southwest (SW) Japan is an episyenite that contains new Li-rich minerals, including sugilite, katayamalite, murakamiite, and ferro-ferri-holmquistite. We present petrographical, mineralogical, and geochronological data for the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/min8110540
Abstract: Lithology and petrologic nature of the forearc mantle have been left unclear due to the very limited sampling to date. Here, we present petrological data on a forearc peridotite suite obtained as xenoliths in an… read more here.
