The Eastern Mediterranean Sea mean sea level decadal slowdown: the effects of the water budget

open access: yesFrontiers in Climate
This paper analyses the decadal variability of the Mean Sea Level (MSL) trend for the Mediterranean Sea and three subregions using a combination of satellite altimetry, tide gauges and reanalyses datasets for the past 30 years (1993–2022).

Modelling global-scale climate impacts of the late Miocene Messinian Salinity Crisis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Late Miocene tectonic changes in Mediterranean–Atlantic connectivity and climatic changes caused Mediterranean salinity to fluctuate dramatically, including a ten-fold increase and near-freshening.

Insights into the genesis of thick halite in the Kuqa Depression (Tarim Basin, China): New mineralogical, lithological and geochemical evidence

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Halite thickness in Mbr 2 of the Kumugeliemu can reach 1000 m. The thick halite is associated with sedimentary rock with shallow water fabrics. The thick halite was formed in a shallow‐sea water environment. The ‘Multiple transgression‐salt‐forming’ model was established.

Shared temporal increases in bill size among songbirds of the San Francisco Bay Area provide evidence for different seasonal selective pressures

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Museum specimens offer a unique and powerful tool for understanding the impact of anthropogenic change on populations over time. Morphological traits can be impacted by many different environmental variables that are difficult to separate from one another as potential driving factors.

Horizon scanning of potential invasive alien plant species and their distribution in Norway under a changing climate

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Invasive alien plant species can cause considerable ecological, economic, and social impacts, and the number of impactful species will likely increase with globalisation and anthropogenic climate change. Preventing potentially invasive alien plant species from becoming introduced is the most cost‐effective way to protect Norway's ecosystems from future
