The local paleoenvironment of Kalavan‐2 based on small‐vertebrate remains and its implications for human‐environment‐dynamics between 60 and 35 ka in the Armenian Highlands

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 153-177, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Kalavan‐2, a high‐altitude (∼1640 m a.s.l.) open‐air site in Armenia, preserves stratified Middle Paleolithic occupations with a rich small‐vertebrate record. Luminescence dating has placed site formation between ~60 and 45 ka, but without independent chronological control of the microvertebrate accumulation.

Comparison between transcriptomic responses to short-term stress exposures of a common Holarctic and endemic Lake Baikal amphipods

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Lake Baikal is one of the oldest freshwater lakes and has constituted a stable environment for millions of years, in stark contrast to small, transient bodies of water in its immediate vicinity.

Crustal Structure Across the Okavango Rift, Botswana: The SEISORZ Wide‐Angle Seismic Experiment

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The Okavango Rift Zone (ORZ) is an incipient continental rift in Botswana at the terminus of the Southwestern Branch of the East African Rift System. The lack of syn‐rift magmatism and tectonic processes overprinting pre‐rift structures provide an opportunity to investigate incipient‐stage rift processes and the role of pre‐existing structures

TRACES OF HIGH SEISMIC ACTIVITY IN THE UPPERMOST SEDIMENTS OF LAKE BAIKAL, SIBERIA

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2021
Sedimentation in Lake Baikal is significantly affected by continuous seismic activity in the Baikal Rift Zone. Our study shows that historical earthquakes, as well as recent seismic events, considerably influenced sedimentation in this deep tectonic ...

Genomic Connectivity and Adaptation Signals of the Freshwater Sponge Ephydatia muelleri Across Its Distribution

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Genetic connectivity and local adaptation were examined across the distribution of the freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri. Because it occupies an exceptional breadth of freshwater environments across a broad geographic range, this species offers key insights into biogeographic processes shaping genetic structure and adaptation in inland ...

Changes of Eurasian Cold Winters and Their Associated Key Variables Based on CMIP6 Global Climate Models

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract Cold winters in Eurasia considerably affect transportation, agriculture, energy, and public health. This study utilizes 31 global climate models from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) and 33 CMIP5 models to evaluate the historical surface air temperature, sea level pressure, 500‐hPa geopotential height, 150‐hPa ...
