Single‐grain K‐feldspar luminescence dating on primary and re‐deposited aeolian sediments in Mongolia

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 1187-1207, October 2026.
Owing to its location in the semi‐arid region of northern Central Asia, Mongolia is highly sensitive to climate change and therefore provides an excellent setting for palaeoenvironmental research. Proxy data from different sediment types are crucial for interpreting past climate changes and landscape evolution, while burial ages provide chronological ...

Changes in land‐snail communities and steppe environments in the lower Rhône valley during the Lateglacial–Holocene transition

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 1160-1186, October 2026.
Land snail successions in the lower Rhône valley allow us to reconstruct the postglacial recolonization. From the Lateglacial period onwards, Mediterranean steppe communities appeared. The arrival of forest taxa was significantly delayed by aridity. The question of glacial refugia, both local and distant, primarily concerned Mediterranean species of ...

Morphometric analysis of cirques in central Siberia's western Putorana Plateau: a proxy for palaeoclimate

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 1014-1031, October 2026.
A detailed morphometric analysis of 200 cirques across the western Putorana Plateau, central Siberia, was undertaken to investigate cirque development, reconstruct glaciers and infer palaeoclimatic conditions. Cirques are amphitheatre‐shaped landforms with mean length and widths of 936 and 1000 m, respectively, indicating a mature glacial landscape ...

Prioritizing site groups for intrinsic biodiversity assets using complementarity and not just rarity

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
Conservation practitioners rightfully focus on at‐risk species when valuing biodiversity assets and prioritizing spatial units. We compared and combined numbers of at‐risk species with four other community metrics using surveys of vascular plants at wetlands in a preserve network in Illinois, USA.

Spatial and temporal evolution of a coastal erg margin: The Middle Jurassic Page Sandstone, southern Utah, USA

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2081-2119, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aeolian deflationary events are erosive to static stages where sediment supply is insufficient to support bedform migration and preservation in the rock record. In the vicinity of shallow‐marine environments, inland rises of relative water table and associated generation of deflationary super surfaces may be driven by the onset of ...
