Accessory Minerals in Felsic Igneous Rocks - Part 8: Composition of fluorapatite from late-Variscan granites of the Erzgebirge−Vogtland metallogenic province, Germany

Förster, Hans-Jürgen | Gottesmann, Bärbel

2021

This data set is the part 8 of a series reporting chemical data for accessory minerals from felsic igneous rocks. Compositional data were acquired by electron-probe microanalysis (EPMA) between about 1995 and 2005 on surface rocks and borehole samples. This data set assembles the results of...

Analysis of cosmogenic 10Be concentrations of Siwalik sediments and modern river sands from the north-western Himalaya and the calculated 10Be-derived paleoerosion rates

Mandal, Sanjay Kumar | Scherler, Dirk | Wittmann, Hella

2021

These datasets were used to evaluate the main controls on last ~6 million years erosion rate variability of the northwestern Himalaya. The Earth’s climate has been cooling during the last ~15 million years and started fluctuating between cold and warm periods since ~2-3 million years ago....

Source parameters of Acoustic Emissions from triaxial experiments on Westerly granite, Aue Granite and Flechtigen Sandstone

Goebel, Thomas | Kwiatek, Grzegorz | Stanchits, Sergei | Davidsen, Joern

2021

This dataset is supplementary material to "What controls the presence and characteristics of aftershocks in rock fracture in the lab?" by Joern Davidsen, Thomas H. W. Goebel, Grzegorz Kwiatek, Sergei Stanchits, Jordi Baro and Georg Dresen (Davidsen et al., 2021). The dataset contains source...

Experimental rock permeability data for illite-bearing Flechtinger sandstone measured with a flow-through apparatus at GFZ Potsdam

Cheng, Chaojie | Milsch, Harald

2020

Temperature changes and variations in pore fluid salinity may negatively affect the permeability of clay‐bearing sandstones with implications for natural fluid flow and geotechnical applications alike. Cheng and Milsch (2020) investigated these factors for a sandstone dominated by illite as the...

Major element stream water chemistry, compiled 10Be erosion rates, and analyses of weathering across an erosion-rate gradient in in southern Taiwan

Bufe, Aaron | Hovius, Niels | Emberson, Robert | Rugenstein, Jeremy K. C. | Galy, Albert | Hassenruck-Gudipati, Hima J. | Chang, Jui-Ming

2021

This dataset was used to analyse the link between chemical weathering and erosion rates across the southern tip of Taiwan. The weathering of silicate minerals is a key component of Earth’s long-term carbon cycle, and it stabilises Earth’s climate by sequestering carbon dioxide (CO2) from the...

Seismic anisotropy and mantle deformation in NW Iran inferred from splitting measurements of SK(K)S and direct S phases - supplementary dataset

Arvin, Shiva | Sobouti, Farhad | Priestley, Keith | Ghods, Abdolreza | Motaghi, Khalil | Tilmann, Frederik | Eken, Tuna

2021

We investigate the anisotropic nature of the mantle in a part of the Arabia-Eurasia collision zone where several of the constituent tectonic blocks of Iran come into contact. Our aim is to identify the dominant source of anisotropy in order to infer the pattern of mantle deformation as it...

Gelatin-based analog models simulating dike propagation in the upper crust

Mantiloni, Lorenzo | Davis, Tim | Gaete Rojas, Ayleen Barbara | Rivalta, Eleonora

2021

This dataset collects the results of a series of experiments carried out on air-filled cracks injected into pigskin gelatin blocks between September 2019 and May 2020 at GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences in Potsdam (Germany). Such experiments were intended to simulate dike...

Trace element contents in white mica and tourmaline from the Panasqueira W-Sn-Cu deposit (Portugal)

Codeço, Marta S. | Weis, Philipp | Trumbull, Robert B. | van Hinsberg, Vincent | Pinto, Filipe | Lecumberri-Sanchez, Pilar | Schleicher, Anja Maria

2020

Analyzing the chemical composition of rocks and minerals is an important tool for exploring and understanding mineral resources. Typically, hydrothermal ore deposits are characterized by primary alteration halos. At the world-class Panasqueira W-Sn-Cu deposit, the hydrothermal alteration of the...

Black Forest Observatory Data

Black Forest Observatory (BFO)

1971

The Black Forest Observatory Data collection compiles digital data recorded at Black Forest Observatory (BFO) in Germany and provided through several international data centers. BFO aims to observe the entire geodynamic spectrum. It strives to ensure continuous, uninterrupted operation and is...

Accessory Minerals in Felsic Igneous Rocks - Part 6: Composition of monazite-(Ce), xenotime-(Y) and zircon from the late-Variscan Fichtelgebirge/Smrčiny granites (Germany, Czech Republic)

Förster, Hans-Jürgen

2020

This data set is the sixth part of a series reporting chemical data for accessory minerals from felsic igneous rocks. It assembles the results of electron-microprobe spot analyses of monazite-(Ce), xenotime-(Y) and zircon from the late-Variscan granites of the Fichtelgebirge/Smrčiny in the...
