Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 647-659, May 2026.Orchards supported the highest wild bee diversity and functional diversity, highlighting their role in maintaining bee communities in Mediterranean agroecosystems. Landscape heterogeneity positively influenced functional evenness and dispersion of wild bee communities, underscoring the importance of diverse landscapes for bee conservation. The presence

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 287-310, May 2026.ABSTRACT The metamorphic zoning and geothermobarometry of the Ryoke metamorphic complex in the Yanai area, southwest Japan, show that its thermobaric structure was buffered by the dehydration melting of biotite. The temperatures over most of the area covered by the three high‐grade zones (8.5‐ to 19.0‐km depth) are consistent with those of the ...

Some examples of deep structure of the Archean from geophysics [PDF]
The development of Archean crust remains as one of the significant problems in earth science, and a major unknown concerning Archean terrains is the nature of the deep crust.

Microspherules formed by lightning strikes
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 743-767, May 2026.Abstract Natural microspherules are formed by high‐temperature processes and are present throughout the geologic record to the present day. We report the discovery of large numbers of microspherules recovered from a rock pavement in the Pilbara region, Western Australia.

Origin and evolution of the Amazonian craton [PDF]
The Amazonian craton appears to be formed and modifed by processes much like those of the better-known Precambrian cratons, but the major events did not always follow conventional sequences nor did they occur synchronously with those of other cratons ...

U-Pb ages and Sr, Pb and Nd isotope data for gneisses near the Kolar Schist Belt: Evidence for the juxtaposition of discrete Archean terranes [PDF]
Uranium-lead ages and Sr, Pb, and Nd isotopic data for gneisses near the Kolar Schist Belt and their interpretation as evidence for the juxtaposition of discrete Archean terranes were presented. The granodioritic Kambha gneiss east of the schist belt has

A comparison of the chemistry of pseudotachylyte breccias in the Archean Levack Gneisses of the Sudbury structure, Ontario [PDF]
The Archean Levack Gneisses of the North Range host millimeter-thick veins and centimeter-thick lenses of pseudotachylyte, as well as substantially larger meter-wide, dykelike bodies of pseudotachylytic 'breccia'.
