Potassium in the Earth’s core (NERC Grant NE/R000425/1)
This dataset contains VASP runs performed on several supercomputing services (Monsoon and ARCHER, and their successors Monsoon2 and ARCHER2) to calculate the chemical potentials... -
Two-phase modeling of water partitioning between liquid iron and silicate...
The two-phase modeling of water between liquid iron and silicate melt at 50 and 135 gigapascals (corresponding to 3500 and 4200 kelvin) was performed by using ab initio... -
AR-AR and U-PB Recalibration of Palaeocene-Ecocene Magnetostratigraphy
High-presicion Ar- Ar and U-Pb dating of magmatic events in the British Tertiary igneous province is difficult to reconcile with the magnetostratigraphy. The normally... -
Determination of the water content of the Archaean mantle
The freshest available Archaean (3.5 and 2.7 ga) and young komatiites, including very fresh Belingwe olivine with melt inclusions and newly collected Barberton rock with fresh... -
Testing a New Model for Initiation of Subduction in the Western Pacific:...
This proposal seeks to test the hypothesis that a mantle hotspot was responsible for generating boninite magmas in the Izu - Bonin - Mariana (IBM) arc during the middle Eocene.... -
Computational Modelling of Hydrogen Defects and Their Mobility in Olivine
Olivine, the major component of the Earth's upper mantle, is known to contain water in the form of H defects. These defects have a significant effect on the physical and... -
Geometry and Kinematics of continental breakup in the youthful Aden rift
One of the primary processes shaping Earth's surface is the stretching and eventual break-up of continents to create new ocean basins. The processes of stretching and heating of... -
Ab initio calculations and high P-T experiments on iron, iron alloys and...
This collection includes the elastic calculations of the hcp-Fe-Si-S-C alloy system. NERC grant NE/M015181/1 - Pre melting in iron and iron alloys: ab initio calculations and... -
Chemical potentials of liquid iron mixtures at ICB conditions and of solid...
This dataset contains VASP runs performed on several supercomputing services (ARCHER, Monsoon, Thomas and Grace in the UK; Eos in the USA) to calculate the chemical potentials... -
How do subduction zones initiate, develop and end: Imaging the Reversal of...
In this urgency proposal we will deploy seismometers for 1 year to record aftershocks from sequence of 4 major earthquakes with magnitudes between 7.1-7.6. These recordings and... -
Earth's core conductivities for pure iron and iron mixtures in the liquid...
This dataset contains VASP runs performed on ARCHER to calculate the electrical and thermal conductivities of pure iron and iron alloys at Earth's core conditions using density... -
The oxygen fugacity of core segregation and the redox evolution of the...
This project is aimed at understanding what kind of conditions the Earth's core formed under and how this affected the amount of oxygen present in the rocky interior of the...
