On multimillion-year time scales, Earth has experienced warm ice-free and cold glacial
climates, but it is unknown whether transitions between these background climate states …

In this paper, a new discrimination diagram using absolute measures of Th and Nb is
applied to post-Archean ophiolites to best discriminate a large number of different ophiolitic …

We combine a geological, geochemical and tectonic dataset from 118 ophiolite complexes
of the major global Phanerozoic orogenic belts with similar datasets of ophiolites from 111 …

This paper presents an internally and globally consistent model of plate evolution in eastern
Indonesia from Middle Miocene to Present time. It is centered on the Banda Sea region …

A unique feature of the Circum Pacific orogenic belts is the occurrence of ophiolitic bodies of
various sizes, most of which display petrological and geochemical characteristics typical of …

Episodes of ultrahigh-temperature (UHT,≥ 900° C) granulite metamorphism have been
recorded in mountain belts since the Neoarchean. However, evidence for the tectonic …

The island of Seram, which lies in the northern part of the 180°-curved Banda Arc, has
previously been interpreted as a fold-and-thrust belt formed during arc-continent collision …

Mantle-derived eclogite and pyroxenite xenoliths from the Jurassic Voyageur kimberlite on
the northern Slave craton in Arctic Canada were studied for garnet and clinopyroxene major …

Oman ophiolite mantle has been sampled over a distance of about 400 km, all along the
paleo‐ridge axis. Primary phases have been analyzed in 174 peridotites (mainly …

The island of Seram, part of the northern limb of the Banda Arc in eastern Indonesia,
exposes an extensive Mio‐Pliocene granulite facies migmatite complex (the Kobipoto …
