Nature Geoscience

Nature Geoscience is a monthly journal dedicated to publishing high-quality original research papers across all areas of the geosciences. The journal’s content reflects all the disciplines within the geosciences, including studies of the Earth’s climate system, the solid Earth and the planets. Nature Geoscience covers studies based on all the methods used by geoscientists, ranging from field work and numerical modelling on regional and global scales to theoretical studies and remote sensing. Physical, chemical and biological investigations that contribute to our understanding of the Earth system or the planets are all represented.

Late Miocene onset of the modern Antarctic Circumpolar Current

Thu, 01/18/2024 - 00:00

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 18 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41561-023-01356-3

Ocean sediment records suggest that the modern Antarctic Circumpolar Current did not exist before the late Miocene cooling, indicating its origin is linked to the expansion of the Antarctic Ice Sheet.

Titanium-rich basaltic melts on the Moon modulated by reactive flow processes

Mon, 01/15/2024 - 00:00

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 15 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41561-023-01362-5

Petrological reaction experiments and magnesium isotope data suggest that reactive flow with mantle cumulates can explain the composition of Ti-rich basaltic magmas.

A picture is worth a thousand words, as is a Nature Geoscience cover image.

Ubiquitous magnetite

Thu, 01/11/2024 - 00:00

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 11 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41561-023-01352-7

Magnetite is found throughout the Earth system and has many uses, explains Barbara Maher. It is a tracer of plate tectonic movements, a sub-cellular navigation aid and an economic resource, but also a pollutant.

Geological evidence for multiple climate transitions on Early Mars

Wed, 01/10/2024 - 00:00

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 10 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41561-023-01349-2

Early Mars did not experience a single wet-to-dry transition, but seven such shifts in its palaeoclimatic history, as argued based on the planet’s stratigraphy, mineralogy and geomorphology.

Formation of secondary organic aerosol from wildfire emissions enhanced by long-time ageing

Tue, 01/09/2024 - 00:00

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 09 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41561-023-01355-4

The amount of secondary organic aerosol produced from wildfire emissions is much higher than previously thought, according to model simulations of evolution of individual species of organic aerosol over time.
