Summary: This study investigates the geochemistry, stable and isotopic, mineralogical features, and depositional conditions of fissure-ridge travertines in the Gazligol area, western Anatolia. The results show a prolonged seismic activity from middle to late Pleistocene, as well as the similar oxygen isotope composition of the paleofluids that precipitated the travertines to the isotope composition of modern thermal waters in the study area.

Summary: The clumped isotope values of carbonates formed in high pH conditions do not correspond to mineral precipitation temperatures due to various effects, such as kinetic isotope fractionation and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) endmember mixing. This study measures the clumped isotope values of anthropogenic carbonates for the first time and finds that they are higher than expected equilibrium values. The non-linear distribution of clumped isotope data suggests DIC endmember mixing, and the increase in Delta(47) values can be attributed to a combination of endmember non-linear mixing effects and an atmosphere-hydroxide sourcing of DIC. These findings highlight the potential of anthropogenic carbonate systems as archives for studying and quantifying kinetic effects in clumped isotopes.

Summary: The Bandar Jissah Basin in southeast of Muscat, Oman, exhibits a transition from supradetachment to rift basin setting, with sediment sourced from the Semail Ophiolite and Saih Hatat window. The sedimentary facies belts in the basin include alluvial fan conglomerates, braidplain, mouth bar, shoreface and carbonate ramp deposits.

Summary: Laminated travertine is formed in an active hot spring on the west coast of Tamiahua Lagoon, Mexico. Its formation is linked to deep CO2 and H2S emanations and surface bacterial activity, as determined by geochemical and mineralogical analysis.

Summary: This study focuses on a high-resolution stratigraphic, sedimentologic, petrographic, and limnogeological investigation of the Agua de la Zorra depositional system to understand its evolution through space and time and to reconstruct the development of the carbonate factory within the palaeolake. The results strongly support volcanism and tectonics as the main allogenic factors controlling the Agua de La Zorra lacustrine system evolution.

Summary: The formation of continental crust through plate tectonics greatly influences Earth's surface characteristics, with nontraditional stable isotopes providing valuable insights into the process. These isotopes have shed light on Earth's earliest continental crust and the mechanisms behind modern crustal generation.

Summary: This study combines geological characterizations, multi-scale acoustic measurements, and synthetic seismic modeling to investigate the geological interpretation problem of seismic imaging in continental carbonates. It proposes a method to predict the high-resolution heterogeneities of subsurface reservoirs using extensive geological description, multi-scale acoustic measurements, and synthetic seismic modeling.

Summary: Zirconium is widely used to trace the differentiation of terrestrial planets and plays a crucial role in zircon, providing constraints on the history of the Earth. Stable Zr isotopes have shown potential in tracing magma differentiation and can reveal zircon crystallization kinetics and magma dynamics. Although the Zr isotope variability and fractionation mechanisms are complex, studies suggest that bulk-rock Zr isotopes can be used to trace the differentiation of felsic magmas. Integrated with other geochemical and isotopic tools, stable Zr isotopes may provide new insight into the dynamic history of diverse igneous systems through time.

Summary: The study reveals important sedimentary lithofacies and mineralogical characteristics of a uranium mineralization interval in the western Qaidam Basin, with coffinite and uraninite as the main uranium minerals, and suggests that organic carbon may have been derived from hydrocarbons sourced from the deeper part of the basin or biogenic gases at shallow depths. The unconformity at the Neogene-Quaternary transition may be a favorable interval for uranium mineralization where oxidizing fluids carrying uranium met with reducing fluids carrying hydrocarbons in this basin.

Summary: This study investigated the correlation of the Balkayasi travertine formations with the Salanda Fault Zone in the Central Anatolian Volcanic Province, revealing their ages, sources, and paleoclimatic significance. The stable isotope and geochemical data suggested that the travertines have an epigenic character but were influenced by a hypogenic environment. The travertine formations formed during very cold periods and the initial periods of MIS 1, with extensional direction consistent with the TGFZ in the region.

Summary: The Santa Juana tufas located in the Atacama Desert, Chile, are exceptionally well-preserved and provide new information about tufa facies and interactions. The tufas include microbial stromatolites, phytoherms, cascadestone, flowstone, and porous limestone. Stable isotope analysis and U/Th ages reveal changes in groundwater composition and indicate wetter conditions in the Quaternary followed by aridity to hyperaridity in the late Pleistocene to early Holocene.

Summary: This study investigated energy sources and trophic interactions among vent fauna in deep-sea hydrothermal vents in the North Fiji Basin. The findings indicate that symbiont-bearing taxa have different carbon fixation pathways or nutrient preferences. Niche partitioning was observed among omnivores, with different resources or microhabitats being utilized. The crab was found to be the top predator in the ecosystem, consuming a variety of prey but with a lower preference for mussels. Overall, the vent fauna displayed non-overlapping diets and spatial niches, with each taxon having unique energy sources.

Summary: This study investigates the evaporative losses from right-bank tributaries in the Mekong River Basin during the period of 2013-2015. The results show that the streams lost an average of 4% of their water through evaporation, with seasonal variations in precipitation isotopes. The evaporation was influenced by the normal and warm El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phases, which affected the temperature and rainfall.
