Plant conservation in a changing Mediterranean world

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 49-72, January 2026.
The Mediterranean is one of five climatic regions on the planet characterised by a prolonged summer drought, exceptional plant diversity and high rates of endemism. We provide a framework to link the ecology of plant species conservation in the context of rapid and extreme climate deregulation to a philosophical typology of temporal attitudes (i.e ...

Evidence for Miocene subduction beneath the Alboran Sea (Western Mediterranean) from 40Ar/39Ar age dating and the geochemistry of volcanic rocks from holes 977A and 978A [PDF]

, 1999
Volcanic pebbles in gravels from Sites 977 and 978 in the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean) were dated (using the 40Ar/ 39Ar single-crystal laser technique) and analyzed for their major- and trace-element compositions (determined by X-ray ...

Sea Surface Temperature and Salinity Changes in the Easternmost Mediterranean During the Pre‐Evaporitic Messinian Controlled by the Restriction at Gibraltar

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract During the latest Miocene, the Mediterranean Basin was affected by extreme paleoceanographic and paleoenvironmental changes culminating with evaporite (gypsum and halite) formation during the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC: 5.97–5.33 Ma).

From Compression to Extension in the Eastern Pyrenees: New Insights From Low‐Temperature Thermochronology

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The tectonic evolution of the Eastern Pyrenees from the orogenic mountain building to the post‐orogenic dismantling is still debated. Since the Oligocene, the Gulf of Lion rifting in the Western Mediterranean superimposed crustal extension in this eastern part of the Pyrenean belt, while compressional tectonics persisted in the Central ...

Dansgaard‐Oeschger and Heinrich event imprints in Alboran Sea paleotemperatures [PDF]

Paleoceanography, 1999
Past sea surface temperature (SST) evolution in the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean) during the last 50,000 years has been inferred from the study of C37 alkenones in International Marine Global Change Studies MD952043 core. This record has a time resolution of ∼200 years allowing the study of millennial‐scale and even shorter climatic changes.

Tracing Time's Footprints: Exploring Feeding Ecology and Historical Changes of Mediterranean Common Dolphin (Delphinus delphis) Over Two Centuries

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The Mediterranean common dolphin (Delphinus delphis) presents an enigmatic natural history during the past centuries. Widely prevalent in the 19th and early 20th centuries, it faced a significant decline across most of the basin by the late 1960s caused by multiple anthropogenic threats, including culling, bycatch, prey depletion, and habitat ...
