Mortars From Punic and Hellenistic–Roman Solunto: Materials, Formulations, and Technology

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents an archaeometric investigation of 18 hydraulic rendering and bedding mortars from Punic and Hellenistic–Roman Solunto (NW Sicily). The research aimed to characterize raw materials, reconstruct manufacturing sequences, and evaluate technological proficiency through mineralogical and petrochemical analyses.

Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Sea level changes versus hydrothermal diagenesis: Origin of Triassic carbonate platform cycles in the Dolomites, Italy: Discussion [PDF]

In his recent paper, Blendinger (2004) presents a new and unconventional hypothesis for the formation of the Triassic Latemàr carbonate cycles. He assigned the cycles to intermittent hydrothermal influence alternating with normal marine deposition ...

Evaluation of the Rb/Sr ratio as an indicator of chemical weathering: a case study from five sedimentary sections in Northeast China

Boreas, EarlyView.
Chemical weathering plays a pivotal role in the Earth's surface material cycle and global climate regulation. It not only facilitates the reconstruction of palaeoclimate characteristics but also provides essential insights into Earth's evolutionary history.

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

Functional morphology and biomechanics of the locomotor apparatus in the large Late Triassic carnivore Postosuchus kirkpatricki (Archosauria: Rauisuchidae)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
A three‐dimensional model is used to analyze the locomotor biomechanics of the large Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Postosuchus kirkpatricki. The study finds that it is more uncertain than previously concluded whether it was quadrupedal or bipedal, and plantigrade or digitigrade, but it clearly had locomotor specializations including large hindlimb

Reconstructing the major skull myology of the giant stem‐amphibian Mastodonsaurus: A case study for early tetrapods

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We reconstruct the major cranial musculature of the giant stem amphibian Mastodonsaurus giganteus, revealing a differentiated jaw‐adductor system, a probable sesamoid pulley, and previously unrecognised muscles. This EPB‐based case study establishes an anatomical framework for modelling feeding in early tetrapods and supports interpretations of ...

Whale swimming evolution recorded in vertebral microanatomy from the Eocene to present

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Whale locomotion changed significantly from land‐living ancestors, via semi‐aquatic taxa, to today's fully aquatic species. The vertebral column is important for swimming, and this study focuses on the inner microanatomy of different vertebral regions.
