Interpreting a Legacy Fossil Assemblage Excavated From Waribruk (New Guinea II Cave), GunaiKurnai Aboriginal Country, Snowy River National Park, Southeastern Australia

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 253-276, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In this paper we report on faunal remains recovered from a legacy archaeological excavation undertaken in the rockshelter entrance of Waribruk (New Guinea II Cave), a GunaiKurnai site located on the west bank of the Snowy River, East Gippsland, southeastern Australia.

Élaboration d’un cadre chronostratigraphique pour le Pléistocène de la région Centre-Val de Loire (France) : présentation du projet de recherche et des premiers résultats

open access: yesRevue Archéologique du Centre de la France, 2014
Over the past years, the preventive archaeological investigations carried out by the French institute Inrap in the Centre-Val de Loire Region of France, have revealed Pleistocene sequences of silt in the Beauce area and of alluvia southward in the Loire ...

Osmium Isotope and Highly Siderophile Element Constraints on the Cretaceous/Paleogene Boundary in Western Pacific Pelagic Clay

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The Cretaceous/Paleogene (K/Pg) Chicxulub impact produced globally synchronous enrichments of highly siderophile elements (HSEs) and a pronounced decline in marine osmium isotope ratios (187Os/188Os), forming a key geochemical marker of the boundary.

Découpage séquentiel et nouvelles données archéologiques des Limons des plateaux au nord de Tours (Indre-et-Loire)

open access: yesRevue Archéologique du Centre de la France, 2018
The “Limons des plateaux” formation, in the north of Tours, is a set of loessic deposits from the middle-Weichselian period. Recent excavations of preventive archaeology provided lithic artefacts from Mousterian period on 4 sites and made absolute ...

Unveiling the Volcanic History of Ancient Pompeii (Italy): New Insights from the Late Pleistocene to Holocene (Pre-79 CE) Stratigraphy

open access: yesQuaternary
Many volcanological and geoarchaeological studies in the ancient city of Pompeii (Italy) have been devoted to the 79 CE Plinian eruption of Vesuvius, which sealed the city under a thick pyroclastic sequence.

Weichselian history of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet centre, Kvarken archipelago, western Finland—flow shifts, thermal regime and deglaciation

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 670-701, July 2026.
Rapid thaw of the Earth's cryosphere in response to anthropogenic warming highlights the need to identify and understand the contrasting signatures of past ice‐sheet stability and collapse. The Kvarken archipelago, western Finland, at the centre of the former Fennoscandian Ice Sheet (FIS), has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in recognition

An overview of Mass Accumulation Rates in key Polish loess–palaeosol sequences derived from luminescence chronologies

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 835-845, July 2026.
Loess–palaeosol sequences (LPS) represent one of the most important continental archives of late Quaternary environmental change in Europe. Establishing reliable chronologies is essential for reconstructing dust dynamics and for correlating regional loess stratigraphies. In this study, we present the first systematically derived mass accumulation rate (

Chronostratigraphy of Gran Canaria

open access: yes, 1998
A chronostratigraphy of Miocene/Pliocene volcanism on Gran Canaria (Canary Islands) has been established by single- crystal 40Ar/39Ar laser dating of feldspar crystals from 58 samples of welded ignimbrites, lava flows, fallout tephra layers, and intrusive rocks.

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.
