Oldest Cretaceous latimeriid elucidates cranial evolution in derived and extant coelacanths (Actinistia, Latimeriidae)

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract The fossil record of coelacanths (Actinistia) is diminished by several nominal gaps that obscure vital information pertaining to the clade's evolutionary history. Latimeriidae, the family that includes the extant coelacanth Latimeria, in addition to the Cenozoic, has an outstanding missing gap of 50 myr during the Mesozoic, with no records of ...

Inferring Cenozoic Cover Thickness and Bedrock Sedimentary Material in 3D From Geophysical Data Using Machine Learning Algorithms: A Case Study in the Lockington Region, Victoria, Australia

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract This study presents a supervised machine learning approach to constructing a 3D geological model for the Lockington area in Victoria, Australia, by integrating borehole observations, geophysical surveys (magnetic, gravity, and radiometric), and elevation data.

The SCEC Community Rheology Model for the Southern California Lithosphere: Geological Framework, Ductile Flow Laws, and Preliminary Implications

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Southern California Earthquake Center (SCEC) Community Rheology Model (CRM) comprises a three‐dimensional geologic framework model (GFM) of southern California's lithosphere, and synthetic aggregate ductile flow laws applicable to each GFM rock type under low‐strain conditions. Given temperature, volatile content, pressure, and strain rate,

Eocene Lamproitic Magmatism in Gangdese: Melting Sub‐Arc Lithospheric Mantle and Implications for the Early Cenozoic Magmatic “Flare Up” in Southern Tibet

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The role of sub‐arc mantle lithosphere in the build‐up of a batholith is an outstanding issue that is still not well resolved. Lamproite is a mantle‐derived magmatic rock that provides a window to learn the composition and the enrichment processes of subcontinental lithospheric mantle (SCLM).

Growth and Chemical Evolution of the Kohistan Arc Crust, Northern Pakistan, Western Himalayas

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Fossil arcs which expose the middle‐lower crust have the potential to shed light on active arc processes because magmatic rocks from the entire history of the arc can be examined. We present new geochemical data from the middle crust of the Kohistan Arc and use existing geochemical and geochronological literature data from this arc to ...
