Vertical profiling of shock attenuation at the Rochechouart impact structure, France

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Rochechouart, south‐west France, is a complex impact structure. Here, we present the first report of shock barometry of quartz from what are likely parautochthonous basement units at depth, based on samples from the 2017 C.I.R.I.R drilling campaign. The crystallographic orientations of 725 sets of PDFs in 512 quartz grains in samples from four

Hidden Markov models reveal ontogenetic plasticity in green and loggerhead sea turtles

open access: yesScientific Reports
Conservation of long-lived marine species depends on understanding how individuals use habitats as they grow. Yet management often relies on size- or place-based stage classifications that overlook behavioral plasticity.

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...

Black mangrove growth and root architecture in recycled glass sand: testing a new substrate for coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.
