Intensification of Northern Hemisphere Glaciation Triggered the Red Clay to Loess‐Paleosol Shift on the Chinese Loess Plateau 2.7 Million Years Ago

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Widespread aeolian loess‐paleosol and red clay sediments on the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) provide a globally unique terrestrial archive of Neogene–Quaternary climate. However, the timing and associated mechanisms of red clay to loess‐paleosol shift remain debated.

Precipitation mechanism of anhydrite cement in lacustrine tight sandstone: Implications for fluid activity, mass transfer and pore origin of open diagenetic system in tight sandstone

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
This paper discusses a new model concerning the precipitation mechanismand significance of anhydrite cement in tight sandstone. Anhydrite cement ismainly formed by the dissolution and reprecipitation of early‐diageneticcalcite cements, feldspars and volcanic rock fragments at the mesodiageneticstage.

Long‐Term Snow Avalanche Trends in High Mountain Asia: Climatic Drivers and Impacts

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Devastating snow avalanches are frequent in High Mountain Asia (HMA) yet remain undocumented with climate change impact drivers poorly understood. Here we introduce the first record of 60 million avalanche deposits across 10,701 small catchments, compiled from 33 years of Landsat data from 1990 until 2022 using a snow index.

Divergent Nutrient Resorption Strategies in C4 Desert Shrubs: Stoichiometric Evidence From Assimilative Branches

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We assessed interspecific differences in nutrient resorption efficiencies (N, P, K) of assimilative branches in three Calligonum species from the Junggar Desert. The results revealed distinct nutrient resorption strategies and scaling relationships among species, closely linked to both internal nutrient status and environmental factors.

Application of High‐Precision Microgravity Detection Technology in the Exploration of Ultradeep Gas Reservoirs in the Middle Part of the Southern Margin of Junggar Basin

Geofluids, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study is aimed at identifying the ultradeep gas reservoir structure and gas‐rich areas in the middle section of the southern margin of the Junggar Basin. Based on high‐precision microgravity data collected from the complex terrain areas of Huxi and Tudong in the middle section of the southern margin of the Junggar Basin, residual gravity anomalies

Digit-only sauropod pes trackways from China - evidence of swimming or a preservational phenomenon? [PDF]

, 2016
For more than 70 years unusual sauropod trackways have played a pivotal role in debates about the swimming ability of sauropods. Most claims that sauropods could swim have been based on manus-only or manus-dominated trackways.
