ASSESING GEOGRAPHIC ISOLATION OF THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2016
The Galapagos Archipelago is one of the most important ecological spots in the planet due its unique biodiversity, active geology, and relatively well-preserved ecosystems.

Episodic Seismicity Bursts Driven by Magma Intrusion During the 2025 Santorini‐Amorgos Seismic Crisis

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The 2025 Santorini–Amorgos seismic crisis in Greece had an exceptionally large number and sustained rate of moderate‐sized earthquakes. We used a machine‐learning‐based earthquake monitoring workflow to detect and relocate 66,109 earthquakes and interpret the results in the context of global analogs.

BaSIC: A Bayesian Inversion Model for Basalt Source Investigation and Characterization

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract We present BaSIC: Basalt Source Investigation and Characterization, an open‐source Python based Bayesian inversion method to constrain the source mineralogy of basalts. Using bulk rock geochemistry, the model takes the averages and standard deviations of six elemental ratios (Mn/Fe, Zn/Fe, Mn/Zn, Sc/Zn, Co/Fe, and Ga/Sc) for a given basalt ...

Impacts of Species Introductions on the Trait Diversity of Interacting Avian Frugivores and Fleshy‐Fruited Plants Depend on Native Trait Diversity

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The introduction of non‐native species to native ecological communities by humans is a major driver of global biodiversity change. Studying how species introductions influence interacting species is essential to understanding possible functional consequences of global change because biotic interactions are ecologically crucial.

Linking rock age and soil cover across four islands on the Galápagos archipelago [PDF]

, 2020
The Galápagos Islands have been a place of preeminent scientific discoveries. The archipelago has formed on a tectonic plate moving over a volcanic hotspot, which has generated a chain of volcanic islands of different ages.

Global Kelp Biogeography: Past, Present and Future

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim We review the past, present and future biogeography of kelps (Order Laminariales), integrating recent advances in phylogeography, population genomics and species distribution modelling to outline the key patterns and processes relevant to kelp biogeography. Location Global. Taxa Kelp (Order Laminariales).

Endocranial anatomy of the earliest Cretaceous European neosuchian crocodyliform Pholidosaurus purbeckensis provides new evidence for the ecological evolution of Pholidosauridae

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 787-802, October 2026.
We present new insights into the internal cranial anatomy of the neosuchian crocodyliform Pholidosaurus purbeckensis, based on CT‐scan data of material from the lowermost Cretaceous Purbeck Limestone Group, southern UK. From the study of the endocast, we obtained new information on the phylogeny and the ecological evolution of the Family ...

Warm versus Cold Water Island Tourism: A Review of Policy Implications [PDF]

, 2006
Not sun, sea, sand but ice, isolation, indigenous people: the critical exploration of extreme tourism in cold water locations has barely started. Cold water island locations tend to have harsh, pristine and fragile natural environments, characterized by ...

Density and Abundance of Cetaceans in the Eastern Tropical Pacific Based on a Spatial/Temporal Analysis of 1986–2006 Line‐Transect Surveys

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The abundance of cetaceans in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean (ETP) is estimated using spatial/temporal density modeling and conventional line‐transect approaches. Line‐transect data are analyzed from 10 ship‐based visual sighting surveys from 1986 to 2006 that include 281,000 km of survey effort in a 19.4 million km2 study area.
