Evolutionary history of Middle American Rhamdia (Siluriformes: Heptapteridae) inferred from comparative mitogenomic data: Insights on historical biogeography and cave colonization in the group

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1501-1518, November 2025.
Investigating the systematics and biogeography of Neotropical catfishes of the genus Rhamdia refined phylogenetic hypotheses, including deep paraphyly of Rhamdia laticauda, supported northward dispersal catalyzed by emergence of the Panamanian Isthmus and imply that cave colonization is widespread, convergent, and recent, with established cave‐dwelling

A Deep Generative Model for the Simulation of Discrete Karst Networks

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The simulation of discrete karst networks presents a significant challenge due to the complexity of the physicochemical processes at their origin, occurring within various geological and hydrogeological contexts over extended periods. This complex interplay leads to a wide variety of karst network patterns, each intricately linked to specific ...

Yucatan Hurricane Activity Highlights Common Era Tropical Cyclone Dipole

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 18, 28 September 2025.
Abstract Tropical cyclone (TC) impacts along the western Atlantic and Caribbean margin are not spatially uniform. Proxy based reconstructions of Common Era TC activity highlight this non‐uniform distribution at centennial‐millennial timescales. However, the sparse geographic scope of these reconstructions impedes our assessment of TC landfalls across ...
