This study reports the exceptional preservation of the Eocene freshwater bivalve Batissa sitakaraensis from Hokkaido, Japan. Multimodal analyses reveal that both the aragonitic shell mineralogy and the delicate organic periostracum retain their original structural and chemical characteristics after millions of years.

Key soil health indicators under humid grazing lands
Soil health can be described using a few key soil health indicators that target a diversity of soil functions. This perspective article highlights how forage management affects these soil health indicators in humid‐zone grazing lands. Abstract Background Soil health describes critical soil functions influenced by land management. Although some key soil
