Soil fungi appear to have a retarding rather than a stimulating role on soil apatite weathering Universiteit Hasselt
Aims Vegetation stimulates, in general, soil mineral weathering. It has been hypothesized that plant-associated microorganisms, especially ectomycorrhizal fungi play a major role in this process. We studied apatite dissolution in a vegetation gradient in southern Norway to test the role of ectomycorrhizal vegetation on mineral weathering. Methods A natural occurring lead contamination, probably present since the last glaciation, caused a ...
Apatite LA-ICP-MS U–Pb and fission-track geochronology of the Caño Viejita gabbro in E-Colombia : evidence for Grenvillian intraplate rifting and Jurassic exhumation in the NW Amazonian Craton Universiteit Gent
The 1.80-1.76 Ga crystalline basement in Colombia as part of the W-Amazonian Craton is composed mainly of gneisses, granitoids and migmatites, affected later by several compressive and extensional events resulting for example in A-type granites, but also mafic intrusions and dikes. Here we present, after a revision of main geological features, research results obtained on the NW-SE trending ilmenite-apatite-rich Cafio Viejita gabbro in the ...
Xe- and U-tracks in apatite and muscovite near the etching threshold Universiteit Gent
A re-evaluation of the Meso-Cenozoic thermo-tectonic evolution of Bogda Shan (Tian Shan, NW China) based on new basement and detrital apatite fission track thermochronology Universiteit Gent
Bogda Shan is a mountain belt located at the eastern extremity of the Chinese Tianshan and records a complex and debated exhumation history. Previous studies have reported a young Cenozoic thermal history for the exhumation of Bogda Shan, which is in conflict with the observation of preserved Mesozoic erosion surfaces in the area. This study re-evaluates the Meso-Cenozoic thermo-tectonic evolution of Bogda Shan using apatite fission track (AFT) ...
Tectonic evolution of the SE West Siberian Basin (Russia) : evidence from apatite fission track thermochronology of its exposed crystalline basement Universiteit Gent
The West Siberian Basin (WSB) is one of the largest intracratonic Meso-Cenozoic basins in the world. Its evolution has been studied over the recent decades; however, some fundamental questions regarding the tectonic evolution of the WSB remain unresolved or unconfirmed by analytical data. A complete understanding of the evolution of the WSB during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras requires insights into the cooling history of the basement rocks as ...
Mesozoic intracontinental orogeny in the tectonic history of the Kolyvan’– Tomsk folded zone (Southern Siberia) : a synthesis of geological data and results of apatite fission track analysis Universiteit Gent
The Kolyvan’–Tomsk folded zone (KTFZ) is a late Permian collisional orogen in the northwestern section of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt. The Mesozoic history of the KTFZ area includes Late Triassic–Early Jurassic and Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous orogenic events. The earlier event produced narrow deep half-ramp basins filled with Early–Middle Jurassic molasse south of the KTFZ, and the later activity rejuvenated the Tomsk thrust fault, ...
