Silicate and Carbonate Weathering Perturbation at the Eocene‐Oligocene Transition Recorded by Mg Isotopes

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract During the Eocene‐Oligocene Transition (ca. 34 Ma), the Earth underwent a dramatic decline in atmospheric CO2, global cooling, a deepening of the carbonate compensation depth (CCD), and the formation of a permanent ice sheet on Antarctica. The expansion of Antarctic glaciers eroded the underlying bedrock and increased the weathering flux to ...

Fracture‐Assisted Pressure Solution Creep of Granite: An Example From the Mont Blanc Massif, Western Alps

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Mont Blanc granite, as other deformed granites, has splitting properties attributed to two perpendicular planes: one formed by aligned fractures and the other by aligned micas in foliation planes. It is shown that this microstructure results from ductile deformation with stress‐driven dissolution of quartz and feldspar that passively ...

A Lithospheric Drip Triggered Green and Colorado River Integration

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The integration of the Green and Colorado Rivers shifted the continental drainage divide of North America, marking a key event in the hydrological and biogeographical evolution of the continent. Sedimentological and stratigraphic evidence shows that for integration to occur, the Green River likely cut through the Uinta Mountains between 8 and ...

Pliocene–Pleistocene Redox Evolution of the Peruvian Margin: A Multi‐Proxy Approach

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Due to upwelling of nutrient‐rich waters, the Peruvian Margin is one of the most productive regions of the global ocean, hosting one of the most pronounced and shallowest oxygen minimum zones. This combination of high productivity and low oxygen makes the Peruvian margin a critical site for reconstructing past environmental changes.

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

open access: yesPaleoceanography 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.

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Geranium sylvaticum*

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.
Geranium sylvaticum is a perennial forb of upland grasslands, woodlands and riverbanks in northern Britain, with scattered native occurrences also in Wales, central England and Northern Ireland. It has an extensive native range in Europe and Asia. The species is gynodioecious, with individual plants typically female or hermaphrodite.

Ichnological insights into deoxygenation across the Cenomanian–Turonian Boundary Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 in the northern extent of Western Interior Seaway (west‐central Alberta)

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 355-390, February 2026.
ABSTRACT In‐depth ichnological and sedimentological analyses of the Cenomanian–Turonian boundary Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE2) from the Western Interior Seaway of west‐central Alberta reveal a persistent physico‐chemically stressed setting. The interval is characterised by a dominantly diminutive and diminished ichnological assemblage, with familiar ...
