ANATOMÍA DE UN CENOTE CON EL USO DE DRON
<p><strong>Background:</strong> Detailed geomorphological analysis of the karst depressions in Yucatán has received little attention because the measurement of morphometric parameters taken in the field involves a lot of work, time and costs. A pioneering exercise is presented that arose with two questions.

Advancements in radiocarbon dating: An overview of its impact on Mexican archaeology
Abstract In this article, we provide a concise historical summary tracing the evolution of radiocarbon dating techniques in Mexico and Central America. We explore the contributions of early pioneers who first employed radiocarbon dating methods, leading to the establishment of a Mexican accelerator mass spectrometry laboratory. The study highlights its

This study aims to answer some questions about the bioecological traits of an extremophile fish Aphanius almiriensis in order to understand how it can survive and colonize the extreme habitat conditions. To this end, some bioecological characteristics—condition, diet, and feeding strategy—of A. almiriensis inhabiting the Tuzla thermal spring, which has

Exploring the origins of magnetization within the Chicxulub crater upper peak ring
Abstract Large terrestrial impacts may produce vast subsurface hydrothermal systems, capable of generating conditions favorable to the origin of life. Modeling suggests that these systems may persist for >1 million years for basin‐sized craters; however, direct experimental constraints on hydrothermal system duration are needed.

δ11B Variability in Ammonia parkinsoniana and Implications for Paleo‐pH in Coastal Margins
Abstract Boron isotopes have been used to reconstruct marine pH but less frequently in marginal marine environments (lagoons, coastal shelves), where paleo‐archives are abundant. The dynamic nature of these systems complicates environmental reconstruction, requiring a multi‐proxy approach to constrain changes in conditions.
