Geodynamics Geodynamic models link enigmatic intraplate volcanism in Eastern Asia to subduction history and upper mantle upwellings In Eastern Asia, Jurassic and Cretaceous intraplate volcanism and magmatism differ in their spatial distribution and composition. A combination of plate kinematic and geodynamic models provides clues for their causes.
Geophysics Chatting about reconstructing 1 billion years of Earth evolution in Geology Bites podcast This is a transcript of a podcast with Oliver Strimpel from GeologyBites. We chat about the challenges and benefits of reconstructing Earth evolution over a billion years.
Tectonics Modelling global precipitation since 250 million years ago We have developed a novel data-driven approach to reconstruct precipitation patterns through geological time, since the supercontinent Pangea was in existence. Our approach involves linking climate-sensitive sedimentary deposits such as
Geophysics Tweed Valley a ‘natural laboratory’ to model impacts of climate change and test carbon sequestration theory Kyle Manley, Tristan Salles Dietmar Müller Since roughly 1880 the Earth has warmed by 1 deg C, many times faster than any warming episode in the past 65 million years
Tectonics How Earth's continents became twisted and contorted over millions of years Figure: Photographed on Kangaroo Island, this rock – called a ‘zebra schist’ – deformed from flat-lying marine sediments through being stressed by a continental collision over 500 million years ago. Dietmar Muller
