Insights Into Mantle Plume Geochemistry From Machine Learning
Abstract Oceanic island basalts are the products of mantle plume melting and their chemistry provides insights into the Earth's deep interior. We report a statistical and machine learning study of 8 radiogenic isotopes and 19 incompatible trace element ratios in basalts from 27 oceanic island volcanic chains associated with mantle plumes compiled from ...

Intercolonial Cinnamon: Fashioning Connections from the Eighteenth to Mid‐Nineteenth Centuries
Abstract It is well known that the quest for spices fuelled navigational endeavours during early modern history, acting as a gateway to conquest. Historians from the field have often focused on the relations between the colonies and the colonised, but what role did this play in the forging of intercolonial connections? By delving into the allure of one

Abstract Multiple‐island endemics (MIE) are considered ideal natural subjects to study patterns of island colonization that involve recent population‐level genetic processes. Kleinia neriifolia is a Canarian MIE widespread across the archipelago, which exhibits a close phylogenetic relationship with species in northwest Africa and at the other side of ...

ABSTRACT The spider genus Dysdera has undergone a remarkable diversification in the oceanic archipelago of the Canary Islands, with ~60 endemic species having originated during the 20 million years since the origin of the archipelago. This evolutionary radiation has been accompanied by substantial dietary shifts, often characterised by phenotypic ...

Cryptic Diversity of Mediterranean Neogoniolithon (Corallinales, Corallinophycidae, Rhodophyta)
ABSTRACT Neogoniolithon is a widespread genus of non‐geniculate coralline algae in the Mediterranean Sea. Three vaguely differentiated species have been reported in the region. This study examined the diversity of Neogoniolithon in the Mediterranean by inferring phylogenies using psbA and COI‐5P markers, applying delimitation algorithms and comparing ...
