Magnesium (Mg) has an atomic number of 12 and belongs to the alkaline earth element
(Group II) of the Periodic Table. The pure Mg is a silvery white metal and has a melting point …

Tracking the final fate of subducting carbon is crucial to understanding global carbon cycles
and climate changes in the history of the Earth. Available geochemical tracers such as …

The nine editions of Stable Isotope Geochemistry have appeared over a time span of nearly
50 years. The first edition (1973) appeared as a slim book of 135 pages. Due to the rapid …

Magnesium isotopic compositions are reported for twenty‐four international geological
reference materials including igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks, as well as …

Dolomite precipitation models and kinetics are debated and complicated due to the complex
and temporally fluctuating fluid chemistry and different diagenetic environments. Using well …

Assessing the K isotopic composition of the upper continental crust is important for
understanding the processes by which the crust is generated and modified, and constraining …

Incorporation of subducted slab in arc volcanism plays an important role in producing the
geochemical and isotopic variations in arc lavas. The mechanism and process by which the …

Magnesium isotopes have been shown to fractionate significantly during continental
weathering, however, the degree and direction of fractionation varies from one study to the …

The subduction of oceanic slabs with diverse lithologies greatly contributes to the
geochemical heterogeneity of the mantle. Oceanic metasomatism leads to the formation of …

The high flux of subaerial volcanic CO2 emissions around the circum‐Mediterranean region
requires the involvement of an unusually carbon‐rich reservoir, but the origin of which is still …
