Integrated Petrological and Fe-Zn Isotopic Modelling of Plutonic Differentiation (2021)
Journal Article
Stow, M. A., Prytulak, J., Humphreys, M. C., & Nowell, G. M. (2022). Integrated Petrological and Fe-Zn Isotopic Modelling of Plutonic Differentiation. Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 320, 366-391. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gca.2021.12.018

The upper continental crust is formed from chemically diverse granitic plutons. Active debate surrounds the range of physical conditions (P-T-X-fO2) and differentiation processes which occur in mush bodies that solidify to form plutons. Transition me...

Jordanian migration and mobility in the Middle Bronze Age (ca. 2100–1550 BCE) at Pella (2021)
Journal Article
Stantis, C., Maaranen, N., Kharobi, A., Nowell, G. M., Macpherson, C., Schutkowski, H., & Bourke, S. (2022). Jordanian migration and mobility in the Middle Bronze Age (ca. 2100–1550 BCE) at Pella. International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, 32(2), 339-357. https://doi.org/10.1002/oa.3069

The site of Pella, located in the foothills of the east Jordan valley, was a prosperous city–state throughout the Middle Bronze Age (MBA, ca. 2000–1500 BCE). As part of a widespread trading network, Pella enjoyed extensive socio-economic relationship...

Objectives
Excavations at Sidon (Lebanon) have revealed dual identities during the Middle Bronze Age (ca. 2000–1600 BCE): a maritime port and center for local distribution, as well as a settlement with a heavy subsistence dependence on the extensive...

Fractionation of rhenium isotopes in the Mackenzie River basin during oxidative weathering (2021)
Journal Article
Dellinger, M., Hilton, R. G., & Nowell, G. M. (2021). Fractionation of rhenium isotopes in the Mackenzie River basin during oxidative weathering. Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 573, Article 117131. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2021.117131

Rhenium (Re) is a trace element whose redox chemistry makes it an ideal candidate to trace a range of geochemical processes. Here, we report the first rhenium isotopic measurements (Re) from river-borne materials to assess the influence of chemical w...

Scientific Reports, 11(1), Article 11857. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-90795-2

Human mobility and migration are thought to have played essential roles in the consolidation and expansion of sedentary villages, long-distance exchanges and transmission of ideas and practices during the Neolithic transition of the Near East. Few is... Read More about Multi-isotope evidence of population aggregation in the Natufian and scant migration during the early Neolithic of the Southern Levant.

Isotopic Compositions of Plagioclase From Plutonic Xenoliths Reveal Crustal Assimilation Below Martinique, Lesser Antilles Arc (2021)
Journal Article
Brown, J., Cooper, G., Nowell, G., Macpherson, C., Neill, I., & Prytulak, J. (2021). Isotopic Compositions of Plagioclase From Plutonic Xenoliths Reveal Crustal Assimilation Below Martinique, Lesser Antilles Arc. Frontiers in Earth Science, 9, Article 682583. https://doi.org/10.3389/feart.2021.682583

The chemical and isotopic compositions of volcanic arc lavas often show evidence for involvement of a sedimentary component during magma genesis. Determining where this sedimentary component is added to arc magmas is of vital importance for constrain...
