Journal ArticleDOI
The astronomical theory of climate and the age of the Brunhes-Matuyama magnetic reversal
Franck Bassinot,Laurent Labeyrie,Edith Vincent,Xavier Quidelleur,Nicholas J Shackleton,Yves Lancelot +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a high-resolution oxygen isotope record from giant piston core MD900963 (Maldives area, tropical Indian Ocean) was studied, in which precession-related oscillations in δ18O were particularly well expressed, owing to the superimposition of a local salinity signal on the global ice volume signal.
Journal ArticleDOI
40K–40Ar dating of the Main Deccan large igneous province: Further evidence of KTB age and short duration
TL;DR: In this article, a new geochronological study was conducted using the 40K-40Ar Cassignol-Gillot technique for the Deccan Traps of the Krishna-Godavari Basin of southeastern India.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of rapid Deccan eruptions across the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary using paleomagnetic secular variation: 2. Constraints from analysis of eight new sections and synthesis for a 3500-m-thick composite section
Anne-Lise Chenet,V. Courtillot,Frédéric Fluteau,Martine Gérard,Xavier Quidelleur,S. F. R. Khadri,K. V. Subbarao,Thor Thordarson +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, Chenet et al. reported the lower two thirds of the 3500m-thick composite section of the Deccan flood basalt province of India.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal evolution and slip history of the Renbu Zedong Thrust, southeastern Tibet
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors integrated thermal history results with numerical heat flow models and found that while reheating to 320-280°C at shallow (∼7 km) levels due to rapid (>15 mm/yr) slip along the Renbu Zedong Thrust at ∼10 Ma is capable of explaining the initial portion of the K-feldspar age spectra, a prior common thermal history experienced by all samples cannot satisfactorily account for all the 40Ar/39Ar results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Martinique: a Clear Case for Sediment Melting and Slab Dehydration as a Function of Distance to the Trench
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate whether La/Sm is a quantitative proxy of sediment involvement in volcanic arcs, and relate dehydration and melting processes to the temperature and pressure conditions of the slab.
