Origin of the Bulge Topography Within Caloris Basin, Mercury

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Caloris basin on Mercury has a massive circular bulge topography imprinted with unique fault sets. A variety of deformational processes have been proposed to have influenced their formation, including both global contraction and basin evolution, as well as the deposition and weight of the volcanic infill.

The geomorphology of a lowland river and its relevance to environmental management (Lys River, Belgium)

open access: yesJournal of Maps
Lowland rivers with minimal topographic demarcation present significant challenges for geomorphological mapping. This study developed a detailed 1:50,000 geomorphological map of the Lys Valley (Belgium) by generating a relative elevation topographic ...

A Lithospheric Drip Triggered Green and Colorado River Integration

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The integration of the Green and Colorado Rivers shifted the continental drainage divide of North America, marking a key event in the hydrological and biogeographical evolution of the continent. Sedimentological and stratigraphic evidence shows that for integration to occur, the Green River likely cut through the Uinta Mountains between 8 and ...

Soil Organic Matter Stabilization by Polyvalent Cations in a Buried Alkaline Soil

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Buried paleosols can store large quantities of organic carbon (C), much of which persists for millennia due to isolation from surface processes that promote decomposition. Subsoil organic matter (SOM) persistence is often enhanced by mineral associations and ionic conditions—particularly high clay content and polyvalent cations—that limit ...

A Typology of Australian Terrestrial Bird Communities

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Holistic measurement of the response of fauna communities to interventions requires suitable community condition metrics. However, the development of such metrics is hindered by the absence of broad‐scale typologies at suitable spatial and ecological resolutions. We aimed to derive a preliminary typology of terrestrial bird communities for

Soft‐bedded ice sheet in hummocky terrain of north‐central Poland: Origin of rim ridges and subglacial processes

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 540-559, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Hummocky terrains are characterised by various geomorphological features that typically record processes associated with the downwasting of ice sheets. Common landforms in these areas include ramparts, linear ridges, kettle holes and ice‐walled lake plains.

Reservoir Regulation has Brought a Classic River‐Dominated Delta Under Human Control

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Damming of wild rivers has trapped vast quantities of sediment that would otherwise nourish deltas, causing severe sediment deficits and accelerating delta erosion worldwide. The Yellow River Delta (YRD), once prograding seaward at ∼10 km2/yr, began retreating at −5.6 km2/yr following completion of the Xiaolangdi Reservoir.
