Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

Soil biodiversity and network complexity jointly drive soil multifunctionality in an open cast coal mine

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionIntensive opencast coal mining has severely degraded soil ecosystem structure and function. Although ecological reclamation enhances soil biodiversity and multifunctionality (SMF), the underlying mechanisms—particularly how reclamation ...

Palaeowinds and depositional conditions from Holocene loess in Sweden and Finland

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The nature of deglacial and Holocene wind regimes in Fennoscandia is debated, as is the degree to which wind‐blown loess deposits exist in the region. Loess deposits in Fennoscandia are often relatively thin, discontinuous and less well‐sorted than typical loess, and questions remain over the degree of their post‐depositional reworking and the impact ...

Loess Tourism Resource Exploitation Strategy in the Chinese Loess Plateau: A Case Study of White Deer Plateau

open access: yesJournal of Geography and Geology, 2009
As one of the important geologic tourism resources in the world, the Chinese loess landscape tourism has not beendeveloped deeply enough, which can not fulfill tourists’ tourism demands on different levels. Based on many successfuldevelopment experiences about sand tourism and ice snow tourism, according to the feature of loess environment,geographic ...

Turf track surface interaction with speed and musculoskeletal injury risk in Thoroughbred racehorses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Injury modelling based on changes in speed and stride characteristics of racehorses has become a primary industry focus for the Thoroughbred racing industry. However, speed and stride characteristics are strongly associated with track condition; therefore, reliable quantification of surface variables for use in future models is ...

Complete chloroplast genome sequence of Annamocarya sinensis (Juglandaceae), an endangered perennial plant

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
Annamocarya sinensis (Juglandaceae) is a tertiary relict tree restricted to southeastern China and northern Vietnam. Here, we first report and characterize its complete chloroplast genome based on Illumina paired-end sequencing data. The complete plastid

Welfare and Physiological Consequences of Non‐Lethal Blood Sampling From the Caudal Vasculature of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar L.)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate welfare and health effects following single and repeated non‐lethal blood sampling from the caudal vasculature of Atlantic salmon. Two experiments were conducted at three different temperatures: a 6‐week freshwater experiment with fish weighing 50–100 g, undergoing up to four blood withdrawals, and a

The spatial variation of Asian dust and marine aerosol contributions to glaciochemical signals in central Asia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Short-term (6 months to 17 years) glaciochemical records have been collected from several glacier basins in the mountains of central Asia. The spatial distribution of snow chemistry in central Asia is controlled by the influx of dust from the large ...

Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...
