Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 645-659, May 2026.ABSTRACT Mount Erciyes, the largest active volcano of Central Anatolia (Turkey), erupted explosively during the Holocene, producing the Karagüllü, Perikartin and Dikkartin tuff rings. Even though major cities like Kayseri and its ~1 million residents sit directly on these pyroclastic deposits, the timing and magnitude of the explosive eruptions have ...

Aspect Asymmetry in Martian Gullies: A Topographic Signature of Their Formation Process?
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract On Mars, erosional‐depositional landforms named gullies provide natural experiments for studying the topographic signature of the processes that act on hillslope evolution. High‐resolution topographic data were used to quantitatively compare the steepness of opposing walls in gully alcoves incised into ice‐rich slopeside mantling deposits.

Olivine Microstructure Constraints on Ureilite Parent Body Deformation
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Ureilites are ultramafic achondrites for which the parent body is unknown. Monomict ureilites, consisting primarily of olivine and pyroxene, are thought to represent mantle residues, carrying essential information for their parent body deformation history.

Can the Archaeology of Manual Specialization Tell Us Anything About Language Evolution? A Survey of the State of Play [PDF]
, 2009 In this review and position paper we explore the neural substrates for manual specialization and their possible connection with language and speech. We focus on two contrasting hypotheses of the origins of language and manual specialization: the language-

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 3, May–June 2026.New U–Pb zircon dating shows the Rewan Group was deposited between ~250 and 233 million years ago and that sedimentation shifted across the basin through time, with earlier deposition in the foredeep and later deposition in the back bulge. Testing multiple dating approaches and grain‐selection strategies improves confidence in these age estimates and ...

Steps towards operationalizing an evolutionary archaeological definition of culture [PDF]
, 2011 This paper will examine the definition of archaeological cultures/techno-complexes from an evolutionary perspective, in which culture is defined as a system of social information transmission.
