Evidence from the petrologic record suggested that the modern style plate tectonics, characterized by orogenic processes of low T/P (temperature to pressure) metamorphism may have only begun in the Neoproterozoic. Here we present the oldest known cold subduction eclogites from the Belomorian Province (BP) in Baltica. Alongside other contemporaneous low T/P metamorphic records worldwide, we conclude that modern plate tectonics initiated in the Orosirian and was linked to the Columbia supercontinent event. Two types of eclogites with distinct protolith origins and petrological-mineralogical characteristics from the Kuru-Vaara (KV) complex in the BP were investigated. The prograde metamorphism to eclogite facies is defined by the chemical annuli of garnet and therein mineral inclusions, and peak conditions of 680-710 °C and 2.4 GPa (290 ± 6 °C/GPa) are inferred by pseudosection method. The post-peak evolution is recorded by clinopyroxene-plagioclase symplectite and clinopyroxene breakdown with quartz-amphibole/orthopyroxene lamellae exsolution, and various low-grade hydrous minerals. Zircon isotopic-chemical analyses indicate that the protolith of each type of eclogite was emplaced 2.75-2.74 and 2.5 billion years ago (Ga), respectively, under different tectonic settings, but both were metamorphosed to eclogite facies during a single orogenic cycle before 1.89-1.87 Ga. The Orosirian Belomorian eclogite seems to have undergone tectonometamorphic evolution similar to that of the Miocene Himalayan high-pressure counterpart.

During the 2009 Krafla IDDP-1 drilling project, magma was surprisingly intersected at 2.1 km depth. Here, we test the use of rhyolite-MELTS geobarometry for this very low-pressure system, using natural Krafla IDDP-1 compositions that were intersected at a known depth. We input the composition of the melt (preserved as glass) and search in pressure and temperature and oxygen fugacity (<em>f<sub>O2</sub></em>) spaces to model the storage conditions of the Krafla magma. For the average composition of the drilled glass, rhyolite-MELTS yields reasonable storage pressures (∼40–50 MPa). After converting calculated pressure to depth, the calculated depths are 1.6–1.9 km. These estimates are only 0.2–0.5 km different from that of the intersected magma, showing that rhyolite-MELTS provides excellent estimates for very shallow magma storage, further strengthened by results from a Monte Carlo analysis. The agreement between rhyolite-MELTS pressures and the drilled depth of the Krafla magma supports the previously calculated very shallow storage pressures in other locations, like the Taupō Volcanic Zone (TVZ), Aotearoa New Zealand.

The Nanhua Basin in South China provides a nearly complete sedimentary record of Cryogenian interglacial sedimentation, commonly referred to as the Datangpo Formation. In this study, we present high-resolution thallium isotope (ε<sup>205</sup>Tl) records from the basal Datangpo Formation using two drill cores in the Nanhua Basin (South China) to constrain changes in marine redox chemistry during the Cryogenian interglacial period. Our ε<sup>205</sup>Tl values range from −4.9 to −0.7 with a mean of −2.8, which is lower than the upper continental crust value (ε<sup>205</sup>Tl<sub>UCC</sub> = −2.1 ± 0.3) but higher than the modern seawater value (ε<sup>205</sup>Tl<sub>seawater</sub> = −6 ± 0.6).

The Tl isotope data indicate that Mn-oxide-rich sediments were a significant sink for Tl in the Cryogenian interglacial oceans; if this reflects oxygenated marine conditions, this transient oxygenation event coincides with the first significant radiation of algae, which likely laid the ecological foundation for the emergence of multicellular organisms.

A dynamic transition from interseismic creep to coseismic failure during rupture had also been proposed. However, the potential for a subduction fault segment to transition between seismic and aseismic mode in a time scale of days to months remains poorly understood, constrained by the remote offshore nature of these zones and limited instrumentation in most subduction regions. Here, we investigate the coseismic and time-dependent postseismic slip associated with the 2024 and 2025 megathrust events in Hyuga-nada, Japan, using dense inland GNSS data, aftershocks and a finite-element model. Our preferred source model of the 2024 event identifies a quasi-circular, thrust-dominated rupture with a geodetic moment magnitude (Mw) of 7.1 and a maximum slip of ∼1.5 m. This event occurred at relatively greater depths (15–30 km), compared to previous M7 events in the region, along the downdip edge of the inferred subducting Kyushu-Palau Ridge. Kinematic analysis of postseismic displacements indicates that the initial 50 days of afterslip were excited concurrently with ample plate-interface aftershocks in the earthquake source region and migrated downdip to the northwest into an area previously characterized by long-term and short-term slow slip events. These overlaps between coseismic and postseismic slip, as well as between postseismic slip and slow slip events, align with earlier observations from the 1996 doublet events in the vicinity of the 2024 rupture, albeit with less dense data. Approximately one month after the mainshock, an additional aseismic slip episode initiated at depths of 60–80 km, coinciding with a burst of M0–2 aftershocks in the same region. Approximately five months later, an Mw 6.8 event occurred within the main afterslip area of the 2024 event, forming a doublet with the 2024 event and largely overlapping with the rupture zone of the December 1996 event. Our findings highlight the complex, depth-dependent interplay between subducting geometrical irregularities and local megathrust rheology, which governs the partitioning of seismic and aseismic slip to accommodate the oceanic plate subduction. This interplay also appears to allow the subduction fault to transition mechanically between fast and slow slip modes on a large scale and over an unexpectedly short timescale. The unexpected dynamic slip behavior underscores the need for a systematic, global reassessment of the effects of subducting topography on megathrust slip behavior and earthquake hazards.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11481,"journal":{"name":"Earth and Planetary Science Letters","volume":"662 ","pages":"Article 119384"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143916759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the development of a mountain landscape since the onset of one uplift gradient has been poorly documented. We analyze the case of the Main Gulf Escarpment (MGE) on the Baja California Peninsula (Western Mexico). The MGE is a landscape feature produced by El Carrizal Fault (ECF), an active normal fault that runs obliquely to the rifting system of the Gulf of California. By analyzing the rivers of the southern sector of the MGE with different approaches such as linear inversion, <em>k</em><sub>sn</sub> index, and drainage divide positions, we document how the different episodes along ECF tilted a volcanoclastic rock sequence known as Comondú Group, forming a main drainage divide that now corresponds to the MGE. The fault activity, which began in the Late–Miocene, was also advantageous in providing a reference time span to constrict the incision response of rivers to the episodes along ECF.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11481,"journal":{"name":"Earth and Planetary Science Letters","volume":"662 ","pages":"Article 119411"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143923399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
