And then there were none: decrease of origination and the decline of Conulariida

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Although the evolutionary history of conulariids has been widely studied, previous works have focused mostly on limited time intervals. In this paper, we examine the diversity dynamics of the group throughout its entire history, using various mathematical approaches.

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 Paleo‐Tethys Suture Zone in the Afghan Hindu Kush‒Pamir: Geo‐Thermochronology, Geochemistry, Tectonics

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract In the Afghan Hindu Kush, the 223–209 Ma (≤800°C) Salang batholith is part of the Silk‐Road magmatic arc that was built on ∼40‐km‐thick Turan‐Karakum block continental crust. The batholith constitutes the hanging wall of the Herat‐Panjshir‐Badakhshan—the Paleo‐Tethys—suture zone, vestige of the subducted Paleozoic‐early Mesozoic Paleo‐Tethys ...

Linking palaeo‐wildfire to depositional environmental and ecological dynamics of an Early–Middle Pennsylvanian fluvial‐tidal transition zone—Palynology and pyrolysis evidence

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
The Pennsylvanian landscape in the Forest City basin was characterised by low‐lying lycopod tree and fern swamp forests with persistently high groundwater tables and adjacent fluvial channel, floodplain and upland environments. The occurrence of abundant charcoal within a specific thin interval in the Cherokee Group indicates substantial wildfire ...

The role of conodonts in the global stratigraphic correlation on example of southern Siberia (Russia) and eastern Serbia [PDF]

Geološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2015
Conodonts are very precise tools for global stratigraphic correlation of Devonian deposits. They can be correlated at the level of standard conodont zones even for basins having very different geological structure.

Reconstructing Environmental and Microbial Ecosystem Changes Across the Permian–Triassic Mass Extinction at Lusitaniadalen, Svalbard

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Permian–Triassic environmental crisis triggered fundamental changes in marine ecosystems, culminating in the most severe biodiversity crisis of the Phanerozoic. Yet, the environmental and geochemical conditions governing the crisis and ecosystem recovery remain debated.

The Llandovery–Wenlock boundary interval in west-central continental Estonia: an example from the Suigu (S-3) core section [PDF]

Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2014
A gap corresponding to several conodont and chitinozoan zones occurs in the Llandovery–Wenlock boundary interval in some sections in the western coastal region of Estonia and on islands in the Muhu Strait.

Increased Continental Exposure as a Driver of Carbon Drawdown and Initiation of the Late Paleozoic Ice Age

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract Earth experienced a long‐term cooling trend during the middle‐late Devonian, culminating in the Late Paleozoic Ice Age (LPIA)—the longest icehouse in Earth's history. The onset of glaciation has been attributed to CO2 removal through silicate weathering, however previous carbon cycle models have failed to reproduce its timing. Here, we build a
