Abstract The Chilean subduction zone is a highly active seismic region, producing megathrust earthquakes approximately every decade. We apply a stochastic approach to assess spatial variations in seismic wave characteristics along the Chilean trench using weak motion data.

THE BOUNCING BOULDERS OF THE ATACAMA
124 pages ; In the heart of Chile’s Atacama Desert thousands of boulders, some exceeding 5 m in diameter, lie at the bases of steep escarpments. The rapid and forceful descents of the boulders are commonly recorded by the trails of small impact craters the boulders left as they bounced down the escarpments.

Dynamic Evolution of Forearc Subsidence Controlled by Slab Geometry
Abstract Several subduction zones worldwide present an enigmatic forearc topography and strain characterized by extension at a forearc ridge near the trench and shortening within a forearc valley located between the ridge and the magmatic arc. The development of this topography has been linked to progressive slab steepening, while strain patterns ...

Microscopic analysis of Atacama Desert grit crust revealed a sequential assembly process in which airborne fungal spores of the Caliciaceae colonise quartz particles before encountering compatible Trebouxia photobionts. Free‐living algal cells on grit surfaces function as environmental reservoirs for symbiosis initiation, while multiple wind‐driven ...

Soil microbiomes from diverse Dubai environments were profiled using a high‐throughput sequencing approach. Distinct microbial signatures were identified across sites, enabling comparative taxonomic and diversity analyses. These microbial fingerprints demonstrate potential for forensic geolocation, supporting the use of soil microbiome profiling as a ...

ABSTRACT Aim To characterise the evolution of climatic niches during the diversification of the Phyllotis darwini species group, in order to assess the extent to which divergences involved in radiation were associated with patterns of conservatism or divergence of climatic niches, and whether the differentiation found among climatic niches correlated ...
