Crustal attenuation structure of the Tianshan tectonic belt and its spatiotemporal variations

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The quality factor value (Q) of the crustal medium, which can describe the anelasticity within the Earth’s interior, is a sensitive indicator of changes in the crystalline structure induced by temperature and phase transformations.

Elevation Dependence of Rainfall and Snowfall in Global Mountains: Insights From Reanalysis and Convection‐Permitting Models

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract Mountain precipitation varies systematically with elevation—a relationship known as the elevation dependence of precipitation. This dependence governs hydrological partitioning and ecosystem stability in high‐mountain regions worldwide. However, the elevation dependence of precipitation and its underlying physical drivers across global high ...

Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 14, Page 8315-8328, November 2026.
Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

Do Shallow Slip Deficits Reflect Fault Structural Maturity or Modeling Choices? A Comparative Analysis of Tibetan Strike‐Slip Earthquakes

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract InSAR‐constrained finite fault slip models are often used to characterize fault geometries and slip distributions of large continental earthquakes. A common feature of these models is a decrease in slip near the surface, commonly expressed as a percentage shallow slip deficit (SSD).

Phytochemical Investigation of Stachys hissarica: Antioxidant Activity, Flavonoid Characterization, and In Silico Analysis

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2026.
Stachys hissarica demonstrates remarkable antioxidant potential, driven by a rich profile of 35 annotated polyphenolic metabolites within its aqueous methanolic extract. Hydrophilic phenolics exhibit superior radical‐scavenging activity comparable to ascorbic acid. Integrated computational simulations reveal favorable oral bioavailability, low toxicity,

Triassic High-Mg Diorites and Granitoids in the NE Pamir Reveal Tectonic Evolution of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean [PDF]

Lithosphere
The Western Kunlun-Pamir Orogen (WKPO) in the northwestern Tibetan Plateau holds crucial information on the Tethyan evolution. Until now, the subduction polarity and the assemblage processes of the Northern, Central, and Southern Pamir during the Paleo ...

Late Miocene deformation and surface uplift of the North Pamir

, 2020
International audience<p>The Pamir Plateau, as the west extension of the Tibetan Plateau, forms a prominent salient into central Asia. Previous studies have suggested that the Pamir indented northward, causing retreat of the proto-Paratethys Sea ...

Description of Flavicapitulum gen. nov. and two new species of Marmoreocelis from thermal habitats in the Americas

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 5, Page 1564-1578, October 2026.
Abstract Three novel taxa in the Coleofasciculales were observed in hot springs in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, United States, and in the Tabaconcito thermal springs on the Rio Tabacón in Costa Rica. Flavicapitulum vaporiphilum gen. et sp. nov. was located in a supported clade with Gracilinea and Marmoreocelis.
