Mineralogical and geochemical analyses of the Crowsnest Volcanics, southwest Alberta

open access: yes, 1995
The analcime-phyric rocks of the Crowsnest volcanics are dominated by breccias and epiclastic rocks. Igneous phenocrysts consist of sanidine feldspar, analcime, melanite-garnet, pyroxene, and titanite in a matrix with trachytic alignment of albite and sanidine laths.

An investigation into the controls of granite plutonism in the Sierra da Freita region, Northern Portugal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Serra da Freita region of north central Portugal was chosen for study as it displays the complex relationships between regional structure, plutonism, regional and contact metamorphism typical of this part of Iberia.

Exploring Interactive Effects of Arsenic and Selenium Exposure on Larval Zebrafish (Danio rerio)

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arsenic contamination in aquatic ecosystems is a major environmental concern. Selenium (Se) helps mitigate oxidative stress and hence could reduce the toxic effects of arsenic. However, Se can also be toxic at high concentrations. Given that these metalloids commonly co‐occur in the environment, there is a pressing need for further research ...

Physicomechanical and geochemical properties of central Tigray marble for dimension stone application

open access: yesDiscover Geoscience
The Adi-bekli area in northern Ethiopia is recognized for its potential as a source of marble for dimension stone mining. However, the quality of the marble in this area had not been previously assessed for mining operations.

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Ecological paradigms suggest that the environmentally stressful edge of a habitat is determined by physical factors. The work finds that, counter to these paradigms, an environmentally stressful edge can also be impacted by biotic interactions and are more complex than suggested.

Optimal timing and rate of nitrogen fertilizer use: An integrated network technology approach

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Both the rate and timing of crop fertilizer application play an important role in agricultural productivity. However, inefficient fertilizer use can significantly increase production costs, water pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions. To capture both the spatial heterogeneity and dynamic nature of this problem, we develop a multi‐stage ...

The exploitation of silver deposits in early medieval Europe: some documentary, economic and social problems

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Focusing on Southern Europe, this article sheds light on the mining landscape of the early Middle Ages. Based on the current state of historical and archaeological knowledge, the article raises a number of questions that can be extended to other European regions.

Integrating Sr isotopes, microchemistry, and genetics to reconstruct Salmonidae species and life history

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent approaches to fisheries research emphasize the importance of the coproduction of knowledge in building resilient and culturally mindful fisheries management frameworks. Despite widespread recognition of the need for Indigenous knowledge and historical reference points as baseline data, archaeological data are rarely included in ...
