Rheological tests of viscous material mixtures used as lithosphere analogues

Guillaume, Benjamin | Brizzi, Silvia | Funiciello, Francesca

2025

This dataset contains rheological and density measurements of viscous material mixtures used to simulate the lithosphere in analogue modeling of tectonic processes. Simulating lithospheric deformation occurring in nature over geological time scales requires appropriately scaled materials for...

SLIDEX Extreme climate-tectonics controls on landslides

Capitanio, Fabio | Reitano, Riccardo

2025

We implemented, by means of analogue laboratory modelling, the key processes of the feedback among erosion and landslides, isostatic response and lithospheric flexure, to address how these lead to landsliding. The processes involved have different response times and characteristic length-scales...

Digital Elevation Models and Time-Lapse Imagery from Analogue Experiments on the Interaction between Magma Injection and Rainfall-Driven Surface Processes

Lanari, Riccardo | Moumeni, Mohammad | Reitano, Riccardo

2026

This dataset documents a series of analogue experiments designed to investigate the coupled evolution of magma-driven surface uplift and rainfall-driven geomorphic processes. Seven controlled laboratory experiments were conducted, each combining shallow intrusion of a magma analogue with...

Intercalibration of the intra-laboratory 40Ar/39Ar reference material Drachenfels sanidine

Di Vincenzo, Gianfranco

2026

The dataset contains full 40Ar/39Ar geochronological data completed by multi-collector noble-gas mass spectrometry using the laser total fusion technique on sanidine separated from the Drachenfels trachyte (Drachenfels, Bad Godesberg, Germany). The Drachenfels sanidine represents a useful...

Carbon isotopes in OIB Mantle source

Lo Forte, Francesco Maria | Rizzo, Andrea Luca | Aiuppa, Alessandro | Sandoval Velasquez, Andres Libardo | Romano, Pierangelo | Maffeis, Andrea | Frezzotti, Maria Luce | Casetta, Federico | Ntaflos, Theodoros

2026

The Atlantic Ocean hosts a number of intraplate volcanic islands that provide crucial information on mantle plume dynamics, volatile budgets, and the role of recycled components in the deep Earth. Among these islands, Sal (Cape Verde archipelago) and Madeira represent contrasting examples of...

Crystal Size Distribution Analyses of Isothermal Deformation Experiments

Calagreti, Camilla | Di Fiore, Fabrizio | Vona, Alessandro

2026

In this work we aimed to investigate and quantify the relative importance of dynamic conditions (e.g., stirring in a Concentric Cylinder apparatus) on the crystallization kinetics of basaltic magmas (Stromboli). This was achieved by observing the final textures of the samples, analysing the...

Trace element analysis of the main minerals in the Salitre lamprophyre (APIP, Brazil)

Guarino, Vincenza | Melluso, Leone | Bonazzi, Mattia | Zanetti, Alberto

2026

The Upper Cretaceous Salitre intrusion, subdivided into Salitre I and Salitre II and dated to ~86-82 Ma by Sonoki and Garda (1988), is part of the Alto Paranaíba Igneous Province (APIP, Fig. 1) in Brazil, which is one of the largest ultrapotassic / carbonatitic / kimberlitic provinces in the...

Mineral trace element analysis of xenocrysts and xenoliths hosted in the Limeira I kimberlite (APIP, Brazil)

Guarino, Vincenza | Melluso, Leone | Bonazzi, Mattia | Zanetti, Alberto

2026

The Limeira I kimberlite (91±6 Ma; Guarino et al., 2013) is part of the Alto Paranaíba Igneous Province (APIP) and was emplaced in the southern part of the São Francisco Craton in Brazil. This Kimberlite contains macrocrysts and phenocrysts of olivine, resorbed phlogopite/...

Trace element concentration of minerals in the Morro São João malignites (Serra do Mar, Brazil)

Guarino, Vincenza | Melluso, Leone | Bonazzi, Mattia | Zanetti, Alberto

2026

The Morro São João intrusion is located in the easternmost part of the Serra do Mar province, along the Cabo Frio lineament (Fig. 1) and has an area of approximately 10 km². It is a Late Cretaceous intrusion formed by clinopyroxenites, melagabbros, shonkinites, malignites, nepheline syenites,...

Trace element data obtained from main minerals in Salitre clinopyroxenite and dunite rocks (APIP, Brazil)

Guarino, Vincenza | Melluso, Leone | Bonazzi, Mattia | Zanetti, Alberto

2026

The Salitre intrusion, which is subdivided into Salitre I and Salitre II. It was dated to ~86-82 Ma by Sonoki and Garda (1988). It is part of the Alto Paranaíba Igneous Province (APIP, Fig. 1) in Brazil. The APIP is one of the largest ultrapotassic/carbonatitic/kimberlitic provinces in the...
