Early Jurassic extrinsic solar system dynamics versus intrinsic Earth processes: Toarcian sedimentation and benthic life in deep-sea contourite drift facies, Cardigan Bay Basin, UK
(Springer, 29 March 2024)The Cardigan Bay Basin (UK) may have functioned as a deep and narrow strait, and thereby influenced Early Jurassic oceanic circulation through the northern and southern Laurasian Seaway, and between Boreal and Peri-Tethys ... -
Early Jurassic large igneous province carbon emissions constrained by sedimentary mercury
(Nature Research, 26 February 2024)Large igneous province eruptions and their carbon emissions often coincide with, and are hypothesized to have driven, severe environmental perturbations in the geological past. However, the vast scale of large igneous ... -
Deep sea mining poses an unjustifiable environmental risk
(Nature Research, 16 April 2024)Deep sea mining could provide a globally significant supply of metals we urgently need to decarbonise our society, yet its environmental impact remains intractable. We argue that considering the abundance of on-land ... -
The extraordinary task of crafting a more ‘ordinary’ geography: Post-vanguardism and the art of not-knowing best
(SAGE Publications, 18 March 2024)This commentary responds to the provocations in Shawn Bodden’s paper Working through our differences, in which he draws on the work of the late Clive Barnett and Ordinary Language Philosophy to advocate for a more ‘ordinary’ ... -
Declining magma supply to a poroelastic magma mush explains long-term deformation at Soufrière Hills Volcano
(Elsevier, 4 March 2024)Volcano deformation studies traditionally consider melt-dominated magma reservoirs, often overlooking the significant role of poroelastic mush in modifying surface deformation. Here, we analyze the deformation of Soufrière ...
