Compliance of antibiotics used for surgical site infection prophylaxis among patients undergoing surgery in a Congolese teaching hospital

Infection Prevention in Practice, 2020
Summary: Background: Surgical antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) is one of the measures used for preventing surgical site infections. SAP has high impact but there is low compliance with antimicrobial guidelines in many developing countries like the ...

Ground Penetrating Radar Observations of Subsurface Structures From the Makgadikgadi Pans (Botswana): A Terrestrial Analogue of Martian Playa Lakes

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Playa lakes are considered promising landing sites on Mars because of their strong astrobiological potential. Therefore, sediments and buried structures in terrestrial playa lakes have become the focus of numerous analogue studies. The inclusion of ground penetrating radar (GPR) in the payloads of Martian missions has opened new avenues for ...

The Unexpected Discovery of Paleocene? Coals in Outcrops Thought to Be Cambrian, Al Huqf, Oman

Journal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 1179-1194, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Two brown organic deposits were encountered whilst investigating kaolinitic claystones thought to occur at the base of a Cambrian formation at outcrop. The age of these organic deposits is probably Paleocene from palynology. Organic petrography shows that they are subbituminous coals with some oil source potential.

1D Basin Modelling of Upper Jurassic to Upper Cretaceous Source Rocks in the Southern Pletmos Sub‐Basin, Outeniqua Basin, Offshore South Africa

Journal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 1382-1411, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Pletmos sub‐basin in the Outeniqua Basin, offshore South Africa, is divided by the Superior, Pletmos and Plettenberg faults into northern and southern depocentres. In this study, geological and organic geochemical data together with 1D basin modelling were used to investigate the burial, thermal and maturation histories, and the timing of ...

A Triassic chronostratigraphic and palaeogeographic framework for the Utsira High area, northern North Sea: Reconstructing a basin‐scale drainage divide

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2417-2453, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Triassic succession of the northern North Sea comprises a series of interbedded sandstones, mudstones and conglomerates deposited under a fluctuating arid to semi‐humid climate regime, which are often difficult to correlate regionally due to differing lithostratigraphic schemes and poor age control. Despite existing regional studies on the

The Role of Tectonic Inheritance in Active Rift Seismicity and Magmatism: Constraints From 3‐D Gravity Inversion and D‐InSAR Modeling of the 2025 Fentale Swarm, Ethiopia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract The role of inherited lithospheric structures in active rift seismicity and magma intrusion remains a key uncertainty in continental breakup dynamics. We investigate the January 2025 Northern Main Ethiopian Rift swarm using constrained 3‐D gravity inversion and D‐InSAR observations to characterize crustal architecture, seismicity, and active ...

Shallow Structural Deformation Reveals Intraplate Seismicity Triggered by Graben Motion in the South China Littoral Fault Zone

Remote Sensing
High-resolution seismic reflection profiles from the offshore segment of the Littoral Fault Zone (LFZ) near Nan’ao Island were analyzed to investigate fault activity and its potential link to the 1918 M7.3 earthquake. The data reveal a ~19 km-wide graben

Aseismic Slip Along the Evaporite‐Rich Strike‐Slip Katouna‐Stamna Fault in Greece

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Aseismic slip has been observed on many active faults globally, but its controlling mechanisms remain unclear. This study focuses on the NW‐striking, left‐lateral Katouna‐Stamna Fault in Western Greece. We use InSAR surface deformation measurements to confirm the presence of aseismic slip and compare this behavior with structural evidence from

Melt‐Regulated Crustal Kinematics in the Pamir, NW Tibetan Plateau: Insights From Surface‐Wave Tomography

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract The Pamir, located at the northwestern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, is undergoing E–W extension within its interior, accommodated by micro‐block motions along major fault systems; however, the mechanisms governing this modern block kinematics remain elusive.
