Fig. 4: Subaerial weathering drives cratonization. Schematic illustration of the key geodynamic processes in craton stabilization.a, Before continental emergence, thickening of TTG crust did not cause extensive melting, resulting in only limited crustal differentiation.b, Following continental emergence, we...
Here, we show that subaerial weathering, triggered by the emergence of continental landmasses above sealevel, facilitated intracrustal melting and the generation of peraluminous granitoid magmas. This resulted in reorganization of the compositional architecture of continental crust in the Neoarchaean ...

The zeolites have been formed from the glassy crust of the pillow lava upon subaerial weathering in a dry and hot climate creating a pseudo-closed system. Under these conditions, hydrolysis of the glassy basaltic material generates a sal... GJ Boekschoten,P Buurman,Reeuwijk - 《Geologie En...

Reconstructing the emergence and weathering of continental crust in the Archaean eon is crucial for our understanding of early ocean chemistry, biosphere evolution and the onset of plate tectonics. However, considerable disagreement exists between elemental and isotopic proxies that have been used to ...
