Metamorphic petrology and geology in China: A review
China Geology, 2018 : The development of metamorphic petrology to metamorphic geology in China has a long history. Ancient basement metamorphic rocks are distributed primarily in the North China Craton, the Yangtze Block and Tarim Craton. They are mainly made up of plutonic

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.In Alpine chamois, the complete wear of the first molar coincides with the beginning of senescence and the progress of tooth wear on calcareous substrate is slower than the one on other substrates, increasing life expectancy. Thus, the first molar wear may actually be considered as an effective descriptor of senescence stage.

A Tale of Appendages: Investigating Limb and Tail Variation in Salamanders
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We analyzed limb and tail proportions in 44% of known salamander species using a phylogenetic comparative approach. Our results revealed significant variation among families and ecological groups, with aquatic species showing longer limbs and basal lineages having shorter tails.

Comprehensive Evaluation of In‐Situ Stress Field in Ultra‐Deep Bedrock Gas Reservoirs
Energy Science & EngineeringUltra‐deep bedrock gas exploration remains at a preliminary stage, where comprehensive in‐situ stress evaluation can provide crucial guidance for sweet spot prediction. Taking the bedrock reservoirs in Block K2 of the northern Qaidam Basin as an example,

The metamorphic complexes of the Patagonian and Fuegian Andes
Geologica Acta, 2008 The Patagonian and Fuegian Andes are made up in part by late Paleozoic to Mesozoic metamorphic complexes. The mostly low grade late Paleozoic Eastern Andes Metamorphic Complex (EAMC) crops out to the East of the Meso-Cenozoic South Patagonian batholith ...

Iron Ore Pricing in China: Financialization Through a Marxist Lens
Abacus, EarlyView.We offer a Marxist interpretation of financialization as we examine the Chinese market for iron ore and the shift in the pricing mechanism from an annual fixed price to an indexed price from 2010. Drawing upon Marx's theory of the circuit of capital, we illustrate an empirical case of financialization that results from the conflict between social ...

Damage analysis of rocks with different properties under cyclic splitting action
Solid Earth SciencesIn underground construction operations, there are different types of rocks in repeated loading and unloading environments. For this reason, in this paper, two rock samples—slate and metamorphic sandstone, which contain different properties, were ...

Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract Kohl was ubiquitous in ancient Egypt and the Middle East, and routinely included among the toiletries deposited in burials. For Egypt, kohl recipes are increasingly well‐studied and known to use a range of inorganic and organic ingredients. Although these are often lead‐based, manganese‐ and silicon‐rich compounds are also attested.
