TLDR
Whitaker et al. as mentioned in this paper integrated U-Pb dating, Hf-isotope analysis and trace-element analysis to detrital zircon populations offers a rapid means of assessing the geochronology and crustal evolution history of different terranes within a composite craton.About:

Igneous zircon: trace element composition as an indicator of source rock type
TL;DR: In this paper, the concentrations of 26 trace elements have been determined for zircons from a wide range of different rock types and reveal distinctive elemental abundances and chondrite-normalised trace element patterns for specific rock types.

Simultaneous determinations of U-Pb age, Hf isotopes and trace element compositions of zircon by excimer laser-ablation quadrupole and multiple-collector ICP-MS
Honglin Yuan,Honglin Yuan,Shan Gao,Shan Gao,Mengning Dai,Chunlei Zong,Detlef Günther,Gisela Helene Fontaine,Xiaoming Liu,Chunrong Diwu +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, an in situ method for simultaneous measurement of U-Pb-Hf isotopes and trace element compositions of zircons using a quadrupole and multiple-collector inductively-coupledplasma mass spectrometer (Q-ICP-MS and MC-ICP-MS, respectively) connected to a single excimer laser-ablation system was described.

Alfred Kröner,Victor Kovach,Elena Belousova,Ernst Hegner,Robin Armstrong,Alla Dolgopolova,Reimar Seltmann,D. V. Alexeiev,J.E. Hoffmann,Jean Wong,Min Sun,Keda Cai,Tao Wang,Y. Tong,Simon A. Wilde,Kirill E. Degtyarev,E. Rytsk +16 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that the production of mantle-derived or juvenile continental crust during the accretionary history of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) has been grossly overestimated.

A Change in the Geodynamics of Continental Growth 3 Billion Years Ago
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify systematic variations in hafnium and oxygen isotopes in zircons of different ages that reveal the relative proportions of reworked crust and of new crust through time, and a marked decrease in the rate of crustal growth at ~3 billion years ago may be linked to the onset of subduction-driven plate tectonics.

The growth of the continental crust: Constraints from zircon Hf-isotope data
Elena Belousova,Y. A. Kostitsyn,William L. Griffin,Graham Begg,Suzanne Y. O'Reilly,Norman J. Pearson +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce a new approach to quantitatively estimate the proportion of juvenile material added to the crust at any given time during its evolution, which is then used to model the crustal growth rate over the 4.56-Ga of Earth's history.

Classification and regression trees
TL;DR: The methodology used to construct tree structured rules is the focus of a monograph as mentioned in this paper, covering the use of trees as a data analysis method, and in a more mathematical framework, proving some of their fundamental properties.

Approximation of terrestrial lead isotope evolution by a two-stage model
J.S. Stacey,Jan Kramers +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stage model for terrestrial lead isotope evolution is proposed, which permits the age of the earth to be that of the meteorite system and also yields good model ages for samples of all ages.

M. Wiedenbeck,P. Allé,Fernando Corfu,William L. Griffin,M. Meier,F. Oberli,A. von Quadt,J.C. Roddick,W. Spiegel +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of a study to develop natural zircon geochemical standards for calibrating the U-(Th)-Pb geochronometer and Hf isotopic analyses are reported.
