Temporal stability and spatial patterns of genetic diversity in populations of the climate‐vulnerable fucoid Scytothalia dorycarpa

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change is driving the loss of genetic diversity, potentially limiting species' capacity to adapt to environmental change. Detecting changes in genetic diversity requires replicated temporal data, which is lacking for most species. Here, we combined contemporary and historical specimens of the climate‐vulnerable fucoid Scytothalia ...

The effect of early diagenetic processes on the quantification of fossil micrometeorite abundance and flux in the geological record

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Fossil micrometeorites (MMs) recovered from lithified sedimentary rocks, particularly iron‐rich (I‐type) cosmic spherules (CSs) provide valuable insights into past dust‐forming events. Their abundances, when combined with estimates of local sedimentation rates can be used to reconstruct the flux of extraterrestrial dust.

Regional Coastal Cliff Classification: Application to the Cantabrian Coast, Spain

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science
The retreat of coastal cliffs is a natural process that occurs due to the interaction of different forcings that can be marine and atmospheric, and conditioned by the lithological properties of the rock material. Several attempts have been done at different scales to quantify and rank the various parameters that influence erosion rates, most of them ...

Individual variability shapes interaction rewiring and fosters ecosystem restoration by reintroduced giant tortoises in the Seychelles

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Giant tortoises are critical for restoring lost ecological interactions on islands. Following their extinction in Seychelles centuries ago, key ecosystem processes like seed dispersal, browsing, and nutrient cycling were disrupted.

Zones Localization of Hazardous Geological Processes Habit of the Coastal Cliff According to 3D Seismotomography Sounding Data

Russian Journal of Earth Sciences
The article presents a methodology for conducting 3D seismic tomography of rock massifs. This technique has been developed for the identification and localisation of zones of development of dangerous geological processes formed within the rock massif of ...

Bio‐mediated cementation of supratidal beach sediments associated with groundwater springs

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The formation of beachrock, sensu stricto, via carbonate precipitation in the intertidal zone is widespread throughout the tropics and subtropics. While cementation of supratidal beach sediments has also been noted in several locations, it has received much less attention.

WIND TUNNEL SIMULATION OF THE ATMOSPHERIC BOUNDARY LAYER FOR STUDY OF THE WIND PATTERN AT THE ALCANTARA SPACE CENTER doi: 10.5028/jatm.2012.04044912

Journal of Aerospace Technology and Management, 2012
The Centro de Lançamento de Alcântara (CLA) is the main Brazilian Launching Center. In spite of presenting several desirable aspects due to its proximity of the Equator, it has a peculiar topography due to the existence of a coastal cliff, which modifies

Coastal road asset management: Dealing with uncertainty using quantitative erosion monitoring and modelling [PDF]

, 2017
The A183 is an essential transportation link in the northeast UK that joins coastal areas from South Shields to Sunderland. The route runs through the hinterland of Marsden Bay and concerns have been raised about the proximity of the road to the eroding ...

Microbial mats in dinosaur ichnocoenoses

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Until now, the significance of microbial mats in preservation of dinosaur tracks and in reconstructing the palaeoenvironment in which dinosaurs roamed was rarely studied. Dinosaur tracks are commonly found close to ancient aquatic bodies where moist sediment had once allowed footstep registration.
