Large Igneous Province Record Through Time and Implications for Secular Environmental Changes and Geological Time‐Scale Boundaries

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Zwitterionic Dipeptide Surface Functionalization of Detonation Nanodiamond for Enhanced Control in Biological Environments

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Here, we report a systematic investigation of novel zwitterionic dipeptide functionalized nanodiamonds to ensure colloidal stability over a broad pH range and in biological media. In vitro experiments in 2D and 3D cell cultures revealed a dipeptide‐dependent biocompatibility and cellular uptake.

Two types of modern sediment dispersal systems in the western Taiwan foreland basin: Sediment transfer from basin to basin

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A classical peripheral foreland basin is bounded longitudinally by a pair of marginal ocean basins (DeCelles & Giles, 1996). The WTFB sediments transfer to adjacent marginal ocean basins. The western Taiwan foreland basin (WTFB) is regarded as a classical peripheral foreland basin, longitudinally bounded by the southern Okinawa Trough (SOT) to the ...

Horizon scanning of potential invasive alien plant species and their distribution in Norway under a changing climate

Ecography, EarlyView.
Invasive alien plant species can cause considerable ecological, economic, and social impacts, and the number of impactful species will likely increase with globalisation and anthropogenic climate change. Preventing potentially invasive alien plant species from becoming introduced is the most cost‐effective way to protect Norway's ecosystems from future

Saxifraga rufescens var. rufescens (Saxifragaceae): A New Addition to the Flora of India

Feddes Repertorium, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Saxifraga rufescens Balf.f., a species of Saxifragaceae, previously known from China and Myanmar, is now recorded from Nagaland, India. This study offers detailed morphological descriptions, habitat characteristics, field photographs, distributional data, and an analysis of its taxonomic relationships with closely related species, facilitating

Early Cretaceous–Late Miocene Basin–Mountains Pattern in the Northeastern Margin of the Tibetan Plateau, NW China: Evidence From Detrital Zircon Chronology in the Lanzhou Basin

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Using DZmix and DZstats models, we quantified the contributions of potential sources of the Lanzhou basin. Our findings indicate that the Cenozoic cooling and denudation signals primarily originated from Qilian and West Qinling, which were the main sediment sources.

The lowermost last‐glacial equilibrium line altitude in the Taiwanese Central Mountain Range and its implications for the palaeoclimate and the tropospheric moisture transport in East Asia

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The high mountains of Taiwan provide a unique location for Quaternary palaeoclimate research in East Asia and the north‐western Pacific. This study applies geomorphological field mapping and rock surface exposure dating with paired (10Be/26Al) in situ‐produced terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides to identify and date glacial landforms and boulders ...

Community and Institutional Drivers of Deforestation, Environmental Impacts, and Extension Interventions for Forest Management in the Hindu Kush Himalaya

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deforestation in Pakistan's mountainous regions, particularly in the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH), presents significant environmental, social, and economic challenges. Despite various control measures, deforestation persists due to institutional weaknesses and community pressures.

Phenology in winter‐deciduous relict Mediterranean forests as a tool to understand their adaptation to climatic seasonal cycles

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Winter deciduous forests signify a relict ecosystem that survives restricted to microclimatic zones of high mountains in the western Mediterranean Basin and they are well represented in the southern Iberian Peninsula (Sierra Nevada, Spain). Given the scarce knowledge of their phenological behaviour, the aim of this work was to obtain the annual ...

Taxonomic corrections and new records for vascular plants of Kyrgyzstan, 6

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
A series of notes on taxonomy, nomenclature, morphology and distributions of native species of vascular plants in Kyrgyzstan is presented. Anaphalis roseoalba is treated as a synonym of A. virgata; Hippolytia herderi and H. megacephala are new synonyms of H. senecionis; Hippolytia darvasica and H. schugnanica are new synonyms of H. tomentosa; Campanula
