New Kinematic Model of the Early Opening of the Equatorial Atlantic Realm
Abstract The opening of the Equatorial Atlantic Ocean constitutes the final stage of Gondwana's breakup, leading to the separation of the African and South American continents. The early spreading has been debated due to the absence of magnetic anomalies related to the Early Cretaceous opening at low latitude, and an incomplete fracture zone record ...

Abstract Post‐collisional mafic rocks not only record geodynamic processes at the end of the orogenic cycle but also retain various clues regarding preceding interactions between subducted slabs and mantle wedges. However, the latter and related indicators have often been overlooked; in particular, how the continental crust interacts with the mantle in

Abstract This study introduces the application of the 2D weighted compact gravity inversion technique to model crustal thickness and intracrustal discontinuities in the Aegean region, encompassing both marine and terrestrial areas over a significant area of 430 km × 333 km.

Understanding variation in animal distributions is a central and challenging question in ecology that has become particularly critical in the context of global environmental changes. While distributions are often studied for resident or breeding species, species range limits are equally important for migratory species in winter when population ...

Evaluating migration hypotheses for the extinct Glyptotherium using ecological niche modeling
The formation of the Isthmus of Panama allowed for migrations between the once separated continents of North and South America. This led to one of the greatest documented interchanges of biota in Earth history, wherein an array of species across many groups migrated between the continents.

The Key Role of Vicariance for Soil Animal Biogeography in a Biodiversity Hotspot Region
ABSTRACT Aim The Indo‐Australian Archipelago is known as a biodiversity hotspot with high levels of endemism typically ascribed to vicariance as reflected by the ‘Wallace's line’. However, it is unknown how vicariance has affected belowground biodiversity, especially process‐based beta diversity.

ABSTRACT Aim Tamarisk (Tamarix) is the predominant but taxonomically complex genus of the Tamaricaceae. The morphologically similar shrub or tree species grow in arid, salt‐influenced habitats of Eurasia and Africa. We sampled woody shoots of seven species at the eastern margin (NW China; T. ramosissima) and the centre (Uzbekistan; T.
