  1. 11. Mid-Holocene mineral dust deposition in raised bogs in southern Sweden : Processes and links

    Författare :Jenny Sjöström; Malin Kylander; Carl-Magnus Mörth; Bindler Richard; Lisa Belyea; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Paleodust; peat; geochemistry; mineralogy; REE; Holocene; peat accumulation rates; paleostorms; Marine Geology; maringeologi;

    Sammanfattning : Atmospheric mineral dust is a key component of the climate system, which affects insolation, brings nutrients to marine and terrestrial ecosystems, and acts as a cloud condensation nuclei. To reconstruct past patterns in terrestrial dust deposition natural archives may be utilized, such as loess, dunes, lakes, and peat bogs. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Systematics and assessment of the chemosynthetic bivalve family Vesicomyidae

    Författare :Frida Hybertsen; Steffen Kiel; Helen Coxall; Elizabeth Harper; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cenozoic; deep sea; hydrocarbon seeps; chemosynthetic; Bivalvia; Vesicomyidae; maringeologi; Marine Geology;

    Sammanfattning : The deep ocean has fascinated researchers for centuries with discoveries of new ecosystems and species, yet there are still many biogeographic and evolutionary questions unanswered. Along active and passive tectonic margins, specialized ecologies thrive in a symbiosis between chemosynthesizing bacteria and their host animals. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Fluid migration and brittle tectonothermal evolution in the central Fennoscandian Shield - recorded by fracture minerals and wall rock alteration

    Författare :Björn Sandström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The Forsmark area in central Sweden has been investigated as a potential geological host for a final repository of spent nuclear fuel by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB). High quality drill core material from the upper 1 km of the central Fennoscandian Shield has been obtained during the site investigations and has provided a unique opportunity for detailed fracture mineralogical investigations.

  4. 14. Assessing the reliability of detrital zircon in Early-Earth provenance studies

    Författare :Ross Kielman; Martin Whitehouse; Alexander Nemchin; Victoria Pease; Marlina Elburg; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Geology; geologi;

    Sammanfattning : Our understanding of the Early Earth and the processes that have shaped its evolution have spawned predominantly from the geochemical and isotopic signatures of a small number of zircon populations around the world. Studies of trace element distributions, Hf and O isotope systematics as well as mineral inclusion chemistry in detrital zircon are combined with U-Pb chronology in order to constrain source rock characteristics.

  5. 15. The evolution of lunar breccias : U-Pb geochronology of Ca-phosphates and zircon using Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry

    Författare :Fiona Karen Thiessen; Martin Whitehouse; Alexander Nemchin; Victoria Pease; Barbara Cohen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Moon; impact breccias; Apollo missions; impact event; Late Heavy Bombardment; zircon; Ca-phosphates; U-Pb; SIMS; geochronology; Geology; geologi;

    Sammanfattning : Planetary bodies in our Solar System, including the Moon, were exposed to an intense asteroid bombardment between ~4.5-3.8 Ga, shaping their surfaces and leaving visible “footprints” in the form of large impact basins. The end of this period (~4. LÄS MER
