The nature and formation of silica minerals in eucrite meteorites: Insight into the protoplanetary magma crystallization

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Silica polymorphs in meteorites provide critical constraints on crystallization processes associated with thermal activity in the early solar system. A detailed investigation of silica polymorphs in eucrites (the largest group of achondrites) using cathodoluminescence imaging and laser‐Raman spectroscopy revealed significant variations in the ...

The genesis of a lava cave in the Deccan Volcanic Province (Maharashtra, India)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2016
Lava tubes and channels forming lava distributaries have been recognized from different parts of western Deccan Volcanic Province (DVP). Openings of smaller dimension have been documented from the pāhoehoe flows around Pune, in the western DVP.

Animating Lava Flows

open access: yes, 1999
Animating lava flowing down the slopes of a volcano brings several challenges: modeling the mechanical features of lava and how they evolve over time depending on temperature; computing, in a reasonable time, the interactions inside the flow, and between the flow and a complex terrain data-base; and lastly, rendering the visual aspect of the flow.

A Tale of Two Shrimps—Speciation and Demography of Two Sympatric Shrimp Species From Hydrothermal Vents

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydrothermal vents can serve as natural laboratories to study speciation processes due to their fragmented distribution, often with geographic barriers between habitats. Two sympatric species of Rimicaris shrimps occur at vents on the Izu‐Bonin‐Mariana volcanic arc: Rimicaris loihi also occurs near Hawai’i and R.

Relative ages of lava flows at Alba Patera, Mars [PDF]

open access: yes
Many large lava flows on the flanks of Alba Patera are astonishing in their volume and length. As a suite, these flows suggest tremendously voluminous and sustained eruptions, and provide dimensional boundary conditions typically a factor of 100 larger ...

Restore little to improve much: the value of woody linear elements for ecological connectivity across agricultural landscapes

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Mediterranean Europe is facing significant pressures from agricultural intensification. The European Union (EU) Natura2000 network (N2K) seeks to mitigate habitat loss and fragmentation, but its effectiveness needs to be enhanced through Green Infrastructure (GI) to improve coherence between N2K patches.

Microclimate engineers: how lichen cover impacts soil temperature, moisture, and nutrient availability on mine tailings

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Iron mining is an important economic activity in the North American Canadian Shield but has caused large‐scale disturbance and physical upheaval of boreal ecosystems. Lichens grow abundantly on abandoned iron ore mine tailings as early successional taxa, yet their role in the successional processes of these post‐industrial landscapes is not fully ...
