26Al/10Be Age of Peking Man [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The chronological position of Peking Man, or Homo erectus pekinensis, has long been pursued, but has remained problematic due to lack of a suitable dating method^1-7^.

Holocene Soil Chronofunctions, Luochuan, Chinese Loess Plateau [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Since soil genesis can hardly be observed directly over decades and centuries, the research of soil chronosequences is the most suitable way to assess quantitative knowledge on soil development (Bockheim, 1980). A soil chronosequence is a quantitative description of how the soils properties in a given area change with time (Vincent, 1994).

Holocene Climate Changes: Unraveling Processes, Mechanisms, and Impacts Across Spatiotemporal Scales

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract As the most recent interglacial period and the timeframe for the development of human civilization, the Holocene provides a critical perspective for understanding future climate under continued global warming. This special collection focuses on Holocene climate changes and features 14 interdisciplinary studies.

Magnetic susceptibility variations in Loess sequences and their relationship to astronomical forcing [PDF]

open access: yes
The long, well-exposed and often continuous sequences of loess found throughout the world are generally thought to provide an excellent opportunity for studying long-term, large-scale environmental change during the last few million years.

Sedimentary Metagenomics Reveal Avian Community Transitions From the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We used sedimentary ancient DNA shotgun metagenomics to reconstruct past bird communities in northern high‐latitude environments. By using long time series and data collected across a large environmental gradient, we contributed in a unique and explorative way to the understanding of palaeoecological dynamics between birds and their habitat on the ...

Field trip stop descriptions [PDF]

open access: yes
Fifteen sites within the channeled scabland were selected as stops with the dual aim of visiting locations critical to the arguments for a catastrophic flood origin of the scablands, as well as permitting an examination of the variability in both ...

Disentangling the Roles of Microbial Traits and Mineral Protection in Regulating Temperature Sensitivity of Soil Carbon Decomposition in Eroded and Depositional Agricultural Soils

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The temperature sensitivity of soil organic carbon decomposition (Q10) governs the fate of soil carbon under global warming. Although erosion redistributes soil carbon at scales comparable to the terrestrial carbon sink, how erosion reshapes Q10 across large regional scales remains elusive.

Downscaling Microwave‐Based Evapotranspiration With a Fourier‐Supervised Multi‐Source Fusion Network in Central‐Southern East Asia

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Evapotranspiration (ET) is a critical component of the land‐atmosphere energy and water cycle. Satellite remote sensing has proven to be highly effective for large‐scale ET estimation across heterogeneous landscapes, but producing high‐resolution, all‐weather ET remains difficult.

Contrasting Trends in Plant Diversity and Soil Carbon Mineralization Under Precipitation‐Driven Vegetation and Soil Carbon Dynamics in the Mongolian Plateau

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Climatic shifts critically regulate soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics, biodiversity, and productivity in grasslands. However, the mechanisms linking abiotic/biotic factors to plant diversity–SOC mineralization synergies remain unclear.
