The mineral and isotopic signatures of glacially eroded sediments exported from Hudson Strait to the Labrador Sea during Hudson Strait Heinrich events H0 to H4

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The sediment signature of glacial erosion products exported from Hudson Strait to the Labrador Sea during Hudson Strait Heinrich (HS‐H) events is evaluated using four distinct proxies: paired δ18Ο and δ13C data on the carbonate fraction, εNd and U–Pb isotopes in the silicate fraction, the mineral composition of the <2 mm bulk sediment fraction,

MID-MIOCENE SEQUENCES OF HIGH- AND MODERATE-MG VOLCANIC ROCKS IN VITIM PLATEAU, SOUTHERN SIBERIA: IMPACT OF A SUB-LITHOSPHERIC CONVECTIVE MATERIAL ON THE LITHOSPHERE

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
A comparative study of major elements, trace elements, and isotopes in high- and moderate-Mg volcanic sequences of 16–14 and 14–13 Ma, respectively, has been performed in the Bereya volcanic center.

New age‐estimate data and implications for marine isotope stage 7 and 5e sea levels in Fenland, eastern England

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Only one last interglacial relative sea‐level indicator point (SLIP) has been recognised for Fenland, eastern England, and the nearest penultimate interglacial SLIP is located on the north Norfolk coast. Such limited information restricts the regional input to, and hence the relevance of, global reconstructions of late Middle and Late ...

Intensification of the Southern Hemisphere westerly winds during the last deglaciation (18.5–14.0 cal ka BP): Evidence from Pearly Beach wetland on the southern Cape coast of South Africa

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The southwestern Cape of South Africa experiences a complex and dynamic climate, shaped by the interplay between the temperate Southern Hemisphere westerly winds and the subtropical easterlies. Despite the climatic sensitivity of the region, relatively few studies have examined how conditions have varied since the last deglaciation in response

Plant conservation in a changing Mediterranean world

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
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 ...

The outward growth of the arcuate tectonic belt in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau: Insights from three-dimensional finite element numerical simulations

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao
Objective  The arcuate tectonic belt in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau is a unique boundary for the lateral growth of the Tibetan Plateau. Characterized by an arcuate geomorphology with alternating basins and mountains perpendicular to the direction of

Catalysts for change: Museum gardens in a planetary emergency

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Natural history museums are often seen as places with indoor galleries full of dry‐dusty specimens, usually of animals. But if they have gardens associated with them, museums can use living plants to create narratives that link outside spaces to inside galleries, bringing to life the challenges facing biodiversity.

Partially disarticulated new Miocene burrower bug (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Cydnidae) from Cerová (Slovakia) documents occasional preservation of terrestrial arthropods in deep-marine sediments

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2015
The state of preservation of the bug Sehirus carpathiensis J.A. Lis, Vršanský & Schlögl, sp. n. (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Cydnidae) from the Lakšárska Nová Ves Formation at Cerová (Slovakia) supports extremely rapid sinking and burial in upper bathyal ...
