Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Reflection of global events Frasnian epoch in the section of the western slope Polar Urals

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2018
For the first time we carried out a detailed comprehensive study of Frasnian stage in the lower сurrent of the Malaya Usa River located within the Eletskaya structural-formational zone of the Polar Urals.

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

open access: yesGeološki 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.

Protracted High‐Grade Metamorphism and Slow Cooling in the Adirondacks Recalibrate Neoproterozoic Global Paleogeography

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The assembly and breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia set the stage for Earth system evolution through the Neoproterozoic Era. Laurentia, the central craton in Rodinia, lacks well‐dated paleomagnetic poles between ca. 990 Ma and 780 Ma. In this study, we develop new U‐Pb petrochronology and thermochronology data sets from zircon, garnet ...

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

open access: yesEstonian 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.

Distal Marine Mercury Signals in Peak Late Paleozoic Ice Age: Implications for Aeolian Versus Volcanic Inputs

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract An investigation of the relationships among large igneous province (LIP), carbon cycling, and climate change is central to understanding Earth system. During Glacial III, the most intense phase of Late Paleozoic Ice Age, the influence of coeval LIP on the carbon cycle and climate remains debated.

The Permian–Triassic transition in Türkiye: New insights and 3D outcrop models for accessible, reproducible and sustainable fieldwork

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2026.
We studied the Permian–Triassic successions of south‐western Türkiye at five locations, synthesised sedimentological and palaeontological data, putting it into a consistent stratigraphic framework and incorporating 3D digital outcrop models. Abstract The Permian–Triassic transition is characterised by major environmental changes and the largest known ...

Weathering of the Emeishan Large Igneous Province Enhanced the Nutrient Flux to the Oceans and Led to Late Permian Climate Cooling

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Mafic continental large igneous provinces (LIPs) erupted rapidly and may have overwhelmed Earth's atmospheric and biospheric systems. However, the exact balance and interplay between short‐term climate warming caused by CO2 emissions and long‐term cooling due to LIP weathering remains poorly understood.

New biostratigraphic and chemostratigraphic data from the Chicotte Formation (Llandovery, Anticosti Island, Laurentia) compared with the Viki core (Estonia, Baltica) [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2009
Due to the lack of biostratigraphically useful graptolites in the crinoidal and reefal Chicotte Formation on Anticosti Island (Québec, Canada), the precise chronostratigraphic position of the formation is not known. New stable carbon isotope and conodont

Subduction Initiation Volcanism Leading to Development of the Talkeetna Arc, Lower Shuyak Formation, Kodiak Archipelago, Alaska

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Our understanding of subduction initiation remains limited by the difficulty of making direct observations of geologically recent examples. In the geologic record, supra‐subduction zone ophiolites are often interpreted to record syn‐initiation slab rollback and upper plate extension. Unfortunately, many ophiolites are decoupled from records of
