Early Pliocene Varanus (Squamata, Varanidae) remains from Megalo Emvolon, Thessaloniki, Greece

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 8, Page 2100-2123, August 2026.
The article describes new cranial and postcranial varanid material from Megalo Emvolon Lower Pliocene vertebrate fossil site near Thessaloniki. The fossils, likely representing a single individual, are referred to Varanus cf. marathonensis. Abstract This study describes new fossil varanid material from a recently discovered fossil spot (MVL site) at ...

Contrasting Dispersal Histories Shape Distinct Evolutionary Trajectories Between Malesian and Pantropical Talipariti (Malvaceae)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Talipariti (Malvaceae) comprises two lineages with contrasting geographic ranges across Malesia: a pantropical sea hibiscus group and a Papuan group restricted to New Guinea and adjacent islands. Using phylogenomics, divergence‐time estimation, and quantitative biogeographical modelling applied to herbarium‐derived genomic data, we demonstrate that the

Spatial‐Scale Evolutionary Bias Sheds Light on the Latitudinal Diversity Gradient

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using Escherichia coli as a model species, our experimental findings reveal that populations in high‐fitness‐gain geographic regions undergo rapid expansion, competitively excluding populations from low‐fitness‐gain regions. This results in adaptive evolution that is biased toward areas with higher fitness potential.

Assessments of Liquefaction Triggering and Manifestation at Three Case History Sites in Napier Based on 1931 Hawke's Bay, New Zealand, Earthquake

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
The 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake (∼MS 7.8) stands as one of New Zealand's most devastating, causing widespread liquefaction and damage across the city of Napier. However, Napier remains underrepresented in liquefaction hazard studies as compared to other regions in the country.

Enhancing Rock Strength Prediction and Features Selection by Coupling Well Log Data and Deep Learning Approaches in Reservoir Geomechanics

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 11, Page 4724-4738, 10 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate rock strength parameters play a vital role in petroleum and mining operations for sustainable drilling activities, and wellbore stability analysis. This study investigates the applicability of deep learning techniques for assessing data‐driven models, and to conduct parametric sensitivity examination for feature attributes ranking to ...
