“Flames Over Persepolis”: New Scientific Evidence Supporting Historical Perspectives

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 421-433, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the burning of Persepolis Terrace, historically attributed to Alexander III in 330 bce. A review of classical accounts and excavation reports, combined with diagnostic surveys, confirms the fire's historicity and provides novel insights.

Investigating Technology and Raw Materials Source of the Archaic and Classical Architectural Terracottas From the Athenaion in Castro (Apulia, Italy)

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 512-526, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Since 2000, archaeological excavations have brought to light the sanctuary of Athena in Castro (Apulia, Italy), including terracotta roofs dated between the 6th and 4th centuries bce. Based on their morphological and stylistic features, it is suggested that the terracotta items were manufactured in the Greek colony of Taras (modern Taranto ...

Foraminifera from the Campanian–Maastrichtian of the Miriri Sub-Basin, Paraíba Basin, Brazil: implications for biostratigraphy and paleoenvironmental reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
This study investigates the core RT-01-PB from the Miriri Sub-Basin, Paraíba Basin, analyzing planktic and benthic foraminifera from the upper Campanian to lower Maastrichtian. The strata belong to the Itamaracá and Gramame formations. Lithostratigraphic,

Into the Wild: Farm‐Derived Energy and Nutrients Enter Marine Food Webs With Carrying Capacity Implications for Aquaculture Management

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine aquaculture is expanding globally, yet its interactions with surrounding ecosystems remain complex and insufficiently understood. This study reviews the fluxes of energy and nutrients from three major aquaculture systems: finfish cages, suspended bivalves, and seaweed farms and considers their implications for ecosystem functioning and ...

Phloxine B Staining is Compatible With High‐Throughput DNA Barcoding of Meiofauna

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Modern, integrative biodiversity research requires methods capable of bridging the gap between detailed morphological observations and the scalability of DNA sequencing. For small, transparent, and highly abundant animals like meiofauna, sorting specimens from the matrix forms a major bottleneck, as the use of commonly used stains can inhibit ...

Abyssal Atlantic circulation during the Last Glacial Maximum: Constraining the ratio between transport and vertical mixing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The ocean’s role in regulating atmospheric carbon dioxide on glacial‐interglacial timescales remains an unresolved issue in paleoclimatology. Reduced mixing between deep water masses may have aided oceanic storage of atmospheric CO_2 during the Last ...

Spatial and Temporal Variability of Eastern Pacific Radiocarbon and Carbon Chemistry From the Ice Age to Today

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Proxy records of seawater radiocarbon (14C/C) provide strong constraints on how changes in ocean ventilation contributed to the increase in atmospheric CO2 during the termination of the last ice age (≈18,000‐to‐12,000 years ago). One outstanding problem, however, is the existence of anomalously low deglacial benthic foraminiferal 14C/C in the ...

Ecology of foraminifera during the middle Eocene climatic optimum in Kutch, India

open access: yesGeodinamica Acta, 2017
The shallow marine carbonates of Kutch temporally correspond to the globally recognised warming period called Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum (MECO) that extended from later part of planktic foraminiferal zone E11 to E12 and Shallow Benthic Zone (SBZ) 17.

Palaeobathymetry of the Abderaz Formation using foraminifera, Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Abderaz Formation at its type section with an age of Turonian-early Campanian and a thickness of 300 m contains light grey shale and marl. The study of the planktonic foraminifera in isolated form led to differentiate three morphotype groups.
