A new ∼3.46 Ga asteroid impact ejecta unit at Marble Bar, Pilbara Craton, Western Australia: A petrological, microprobe and laser ablation ICPMS study

open access: yesPrecambrian Research, 2016
Abstract The Archean rock record contains seventeen asteroid impact ejecta units that represent the terrestrial vestiges of an extended late heavy bombardment (LHB). Correlated impact ejecta units include 3472–3470 Ma impact spherule layers in the Barberton Greenstone Belt, Kaapvaal Craton, South Africa, and the Pilbara Craton, Western Australia, and

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Packaging of Macroscopic Material Payloads: Needs, Challenges, Concepts, and Future Directions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 9, 6 May 2026.
This review introduces a unified framework that decomposes any macroscopic packaging system into the payload, packaging material, and packaging strategy and combines them into a conceptual packaging equation: packaging strategy = payload + packaging material.

The Strategic Role of Waste Inventories in Industrial Symbiosis: A Simulation‐Based Perspective on Performance and Resilience of Industrial Symbiosis Networks

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 5236-5267, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Ensuring the resilience of industrial symbiosis networks (ISNs) has emerged as a key concern in the literature. However, existing studies focus on network‐level strategies, neglecting the potential benefits derived from strengthening the links between symbiotic partners.

Simple marble dust for integrated carbon capture and utilization with simulated flue gas containing oxygen and water

open access: yesSeparation and Purification Technology
Marble dust is a low-cost, robust, and environmentally friendly natural material for integrated carbon capture and utilization (ICCU). This study demonstrates the effect of oxygen and water in the flue gas on the ICCU performance of marble dust when it is integrated with reverse water gas shift reaction (RWGS), which could potentially be scaled up for ...

In Situ Detection of Opal‐A in Jezero Crater, Mars

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We report the in situ detection of amorphous hydrated silica in the Bills Bay abrasion patch, located in the eastern portion of the Margin Unit between the rim of Jezero crater and the western delta. Here, hydrated silica co‐occurs with olivine, Fe‐Mg carbonates, secondary Fe‐Mg silicates, and hydrated Mg‐sulfate as determined by UV Raman ...
