LA-ICP-MS U-Pb apatite dating of Lower Cretaceous rocks from teschenite-picrite association in the Silesian unit (southern Poland)
(2014)The main products of volcanic activity in the teschenite-picrite association (TPA) are shallow, sub-volcanic intrusions, which predominate over extrusive volcanic rocks. They comprise a wide range of intrusive rocks which ... -
LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating and REE patterns of apatite from the Tatra Mountains, Poland as a monitor of the regional tectonomagmatic activity
(2014)This study presents apatite LA-ICP-MS U-Pb age and trace elements concentrations data from different granite types from the Tatra Mountains, Poland. Apatite from monazite and xenotime-bearing High Tatra granite was dated ... -
The marine isotope stage 1 to 5 cryptotephra record of Tenaghi Philippon, Greece: Towards a detailed tephrostratigraphic framework for the Eastern Mediterranean region
(2018)The iconic climate archive of Tenaghi Philippon (TP), NE Greece, allows the study of short-term palaeoclimatic and environmental change throughout the past 1.3 Ma. To provide high-quality age control for detailed palaeoclimate ... -
Monitoring Deposited Dust in The Old Library, Trinity College Dublin
(IFLA, 2011)A study is currently being undertaken to characterise the accumulation rate, distribution, particle size, type and source of dust in the Old Library, Trinity College Dublin, in order to investigate its impact on the ... -
Multi-scale crystallographic ordering in the cold-water coral Lophelia pertusa
(2017)Lophelia pertusa is a widespread colonial cold-water coral which can form large three-dimensional habitats for benthic communities. Although it is known to construct an aragonite skeleton with optically opaque and translucent ... -
Neoproterozoic crystalline exotic clasts in the Polish Outer Carpathian flysch: remnants of the Proto-Carpathian continent?
(2019)Crystalline exotic boulders within the sedimentary sequences of the Outer Carpathians likely represent Proto-Carpathian basement, which was exposed and eroded during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic evolution of the Western ... -
Neutron and X-ray diffraction and empirical potential structure refinement modelling of magnesium stabilised amorphous calcium carbonate
(2014)Amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) plays a key role in biomineralisation processes in sea organisms. Neutron and X-ray diffraction have been performed for a sample of magnesium-stabilised ACC, which was prepared with a Mg:Ca ... -
The North Pennine batholith (Weardale Granite) of northern England new data on its age and form
(2010)A three-dimensional gravity model of the North Pennine batholith is interpreted to indicate that it comprises five contiguous steep-sided plutons. The North Pennine batholith was previously referred to as the Weardale ... -
Organic synthesis on Mars by electrochemical reduction of CO2
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2018)The sources and nature of organic carbon on Mars have been a subject of intense research. Steele et al. (2012) showed that 10 martian meteorites contain macromolecular carbon phases contained within pyroxene- and olivine-hosted ... -
Petrology and dating of the Permian lamprophyres from the Malá Fatra Mts. (Western Carpathians, Slovakia)
(2018)Calc-alkaline lamprophyres are known from several localities in the Malá Fatra Mountains. They form dykes (0.5-3 m) of varying degree of alteration that have intruded the surrounding granitoid rocks which are often ... -
Physicochemical and Additive Controls on the Multistep Precipitation Pathway of Gypsum
(MDPI, 2017)Synchrotron-based small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS/WAXS) was used to examine in situ the precipitation of gypsum (CaSO4·2H2O) from solution. We determined the role of (I) supersaturation, (II) temperature and ...
