Volume 26 of Reviews in Mineralogy provides a multidisciplinary review of our current knowledge of contact metamorphism. As in any field of endeavor, we are provided with new questions, thereby dictating future directions of study. Hopefully, this vo

Most circum-Pacific subduction zones at 100–250 km depth contain layers in which seismic velocities are ca. 5% slower than in the adjacent mantle. We compute seismic velocities from thermodynamic data for equilibrium metabasalt mineralogies, determ

Global carbon cycle models suggest that CO2 degassing from the solid Earth has been a primary control of paleoatmospheric CO2 contents and through the greenhouse effect, of global paleotemperatures. Because such models utilize simplified and indirect

Mammoth Mountain, a dormant volcano in the eastern Sierra Nevada, California, has been passively degassing large quantities of cold magmatic CO2 since 1990 following a 6-month-long earthquake swarm associated with a shallow magmatic intrusion in 1989

Volatiles, most notably CO2, are recycled back into the Earth's interior at subduction zones1,2. The amount of CO2 emitted from arc volcanism appears to be less than that subducted, which implies that a significant amount of CO2 either is released be

The hypothesis that the Himalayan orogen was a climatically significant coupled source and sink for atmospheric CO2 during the Cenozoic is evaluated in light of the timing, duration and CO2 fluxes associated with Himalayan metamorphism and chemical w

High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) revealed that a sample of fine-grained Lewiston, Idaho, fibrolite is predominantly fibrolite with trace amounts of poorly crystalline layer silicates. The fibrolite consists of aggregates of ac

Kerrick and Caldeira (1993, 1994a) concluded that metamorphic CO 2 degassing in collisional orogens, and especially the Himalayan orogenic belt, could have been an important factor in enhancing paleoatmospheric CO 2 levels and contributing to early C

The CO2 flux to the atmosphere from active geothermal systems in the back-arc marginal basin environment of the Taupo Volcanic Zone (TVZ), North Island, New Zealand, has been estimated. The fluxes for individual systems refer to pre-exploitation (i.e

In addition to volatiles released from volcanoes, the flux of CO2 to the atmosphere from other sources (e.g., metamorphism and subsurface magmatism) represents an important aspect of the global carbon cycle. We have obtained a direct estimate of the
