Recent measurements of pore-water oxygen profiles in ridge flank sediments of the East Pacific Rise revealed an upward-directed diffusive oxygen flux from the hydrothermally active crust into the overlying sediment.

The paper considers the possibility of determining the age and correlating peat sections by solving the inverse problem of magnetostratigraphy based on the findings of comprehensive (palaeomagnetic, petromagnetic, microprobe, and radiocarbon) studies on ...

Palaeomagnetic analysis indicates that Haasgat, a fossil-bearing palaeocave in the Gauteng Province of South Africa, is dominated by reversed magnetic polarity in its oldest, deepest layers and normal polarity in the younger layers.

Abstract Instantaneous event deposits such as turbidites, debrites, and slumps are common and frequently occur in marginal seas. These instantaneous deposits represent seconds to days in duration, and can therefore significantly impact age‐depth models and interpretation of paleoclimate history based on thick sedimentary sequences recovered in deep ...

Abstract Chronological studies of glacial sediments from the Shishapangma and Yarlung Tsangpo River valley indicate that Quaternary glaciation on the southern Tibetan Plateau commenced at ∼0.75–0.83 Ma. However, the oldest glacial deposits in the northern plateau are dated to only ∼0.46 Ma, markedly later than the Middle Pleistocene glacial ...

The Nihewan Basin (40°N) in North China is a rich source of Early Pleistocene Paleolithic sites and thus a key area for studying early human evolution in high‐latitude (from an early human perspective) East Asia.

Tracing the Migration of Fronts in the Pacific Southern Ocean Across the Mid‐Pleistocene Transition
Abstract The Southern Ocean is a key driver of global climate variability, yet its dynamics during the Mid‐Pleistocene Transition (MPT; ∼1.25–0.7 Ma) remain poorly understood, especially in the South Pacific sector. The Polar Frontal Zone (PFZ) underwent significant latitudinal shifts during this critical period of climate reorganization.

Speleogenesis in a lens of metamorphosed limestone and ankerite: Ochtiná Aragonite Cave, Slovakia
The Ochtiná Aragonite Cave (Western Carpathians) represents an unique natural phenomenon. It originated under particular lithological and hydrogeological conditions of the Ochtiná Karst in which several isolated lenses of Paleozoic crystalline limestone (

Abstract The Cretaceous/Paleogene (K/Pg) Chicxulub impact produced globally synchronous enrichments of highly siderophile elements (HSEs) and a pronounced decline in marine osmium isotope ratios (187Os/188Os), forming a key geochemical marker of the boundary.
