Giants in the cold: Morphological evidence for vascular heat retention in the viscera but not the skeletal muscle of the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

Earthquake Seismicity Reveals the Location and Significance of the Shona Mantle Plume in the South Atlantic Ocean

Geophysical Research Letters
The South Atlantic Ocean hosts several well‐studied volcanic ridges and seamount chains, but the origin of their associated mantle plumes is debated.

Seismic stratigraphy and history of deep circulation and sediment drift development in Baffin Bay and the Labrador Sea [PDF]

, 1989
Drilling results and seismic-reflection records at and across Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Sites 645 (western Baffin Bay), 646, and 647 (Labrador Sea) provide important constraints on the history of deep-water circulation and sedimentation in response to

On the occurrence of the snakefish Trachinocephalus myops (Aulopiformes: Synodontidae) in the Azores archipelago

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The snakefish Trachinocephalus myops is an Atlantic species distributed in tropical and temperate coastal waters on sandy substrates. This study reports the validated record of an adult T. myops in the Azores archipelago caught by a fisherman at Faial Island.

Contrasting life‐history strategies of three sympatric icefish species in the northern Scotia Sea

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Comprehending a species' life‐history strategies is crucial to inform effective conservation efforts. Commercial fishing impacts icefish (family: Channichthyidae) in the Scotia Sea, but detailed information on species‐specific life histories remains largely unknown.

Subducted Carbon From Mantle Plume in Mid‐Ocean Ridge Basalts

Geophysical Research Letters
Deciphering the Earth's deep carbon cycle, from mantle plumes to mid‐ocean ridges, remains incompletely understood. In this study, we analyze the magnesium isotope composition of basalts collected from the South Mid‐Atlantic Ridge (SMAR), which have been

Geodynamic setting and origin of the Oman/UAE ophiolite [PDF]

, 2012
The ~500km-long mid-Cretaceous Semail nappe of the Sultanate of Oman and UAE (henceforth referred to as the Oman ophiolite) is the largest and best-preserved ophiolite complex known. It is of particular importance because it is generally believed to have
