FINGERprinting cold subduction and Plate Tectonics using key minerals (Finger-PT) is an ERC Starting Grant (StG), ≈2,5M€. The emerging new tools from FINGER-PT, some that push current technological boundaries, will be widely applied by other petrologists. Establishing when modern-day PT began will influence the geodynamic mechanisms proposed for the early Earth (e.g. sluggish tectonics), forcing a shift of current conceptual models on the evolution of Earth systems. |
