Body Size Regulates Niche Overlap Asymmetry in the Subtropical Andes Rain Shadow: Isotopic Paleoecology of Oligocene South American Ungulates

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

Glass from Teniky (Madagascar): Geochemical Evidence for Multiple Production Systems and Long‐Distance Exchange in the Mediaeval Indian Ocean

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The inland rock‐cut site of Teniky, located in the Isalo massif of southern Madagascar, represents an exceptional archaeological context recently dated to the 11th–12th centuries ad, corresponding to the early phases of settlement on the island.

Extreme enriched-mantle (EM) compositions recorded by the Sr-Nd-Hf isotopes of global cratonic lamproites

open access: yesGeochimica et Cosmochimica Acta
Cratonic lamproites are rare ultrapotassic rocks that occur in every continent and were emplaced over the last 2 billion years. Owing to their highly radiogenic Sr and unradiogenic Nd-Hf isotopic compositions along with enrichment in K and incompatible trace elements (e.g., Ba, Sr, Ti, Zr), lamproites are believed to be formed by melting geochemically ...

Changing climates and environments within the complex Middle to Late Pleistocene fill of an overdeepened valley at Niederweningen, Switzerland

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Glacially overdeepened valleys in the northern Alpine Foreland preserve Middle to Late Pleistocene sedimentary sequences that may serve as valuable archives for reconstructing past environmental changes in response to shifts in climate. This study presents a multidisciplinary analysis of two sediment cores from the overdeepened Wehntal Valley at ...

Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Variations in Hawaiian Plume Flux Controlled by Ancient Mantle Depletion

open access: yesAGU Advances
Mantle plumes—upwellings of buoyant rock in Earth's mantle—feed hotspot volcanoes such as Hawai‘i. The size of volcanoes along the Hawai‘i–Emperor chain, and thus the magma flux of the Hawaiian plume, has varied over the past 85 million years.

Depositional processes of varved sediments from proglacial Lago Frías since 1800 CE (North Patagonian Andes, Argentina)

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The glacierized Valle Frías in Northern Patagonia is one of the best‐studied valleys in South America and includes varved sediments from Lago Frías. We complement this lacustrine record with a high‐resolution documentation of varve counts and their composition.

Miocene Alkaline Basaltic Magmatism in Northeastern Tibetan Plateau: Implications for Mantle Evolution and Plateau Outward Growth

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The widespread Cenozoic alkaline magmatism within and around the Tibetan Plateau offers a prime opportunity to probe the nature of the mantle at the depths where basalt magmas originate.

Spatially resolved mapping of histones reveals selective neuronal response in Rett syndrome

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Loss of Mecp2 function is associated with Rett syndrome (RTT). MeCP2 regulates chromatin, yet its influence on histone composition and dynamics is unclear. Combining MALDI‐MSI with LCM–LC–MS/MS, we mapped histone proteoforms across the dentate gyrus, cornu ammonis, and cerebellum in two mouse models of RTT.
