Late Paleozoic Accumulation of Coal-Bearing Successions in the Wuhai Coalfield, Western North China: Back-Arc Basin Response to Southward Subduction of the Paleo-Asian Ocean by Jia Liu, Jiaopeng Sun, Qiang Chen, Feng Kou, Yao Ma, Teng Wang, Qian Zhang, Weidong He, Lei He, Yukun Qi

“…This shift in sandstone petrology, detrital zircon distribution, and depositional setting allows us to link the shoaling of the Ordos Basin with mountain building and the unroofing of the continental arc, which enhances our understanding of both the subduction of the PAO and coal accumulation in the NCB.…”

Arsenic contamination of groundwater: A global synopsis with focus on the Indian Peninsula by E. Shaji, M. Santosh, K.V. Sarath, Pranav Prakash, V. Deepchand, B.V. Divya

“…We infer that alluvial sediments are the major source for arsenic contamination in groundwater and we postulate a strong relation with plate tectonic processes, mountain building, erosion and sedimentation. Prolonged consumption of arsenic-contaminated groundwater results in severe health issues like skin, lung, kidney and bladder cancer; coronary heart disease; bronchiectasis; hyperkeratosis and arsenicosis. …”
