ABSTRACT Understanding the biotic and abiotic influences on the deposition and diagenesis of recent microbial carbonates is crucial for addressing the environmental and ecological significance of ancient organosedimentary structures. This study investigates these factors and their expression in the microstructure of Holocene tufa thrombolites from a ...

Phylogenomics illuminates the complex evolutionary history of Bibionomorpha (Diptera)
Phylogenomics supports Bibionomorpha (Anisopodoidea, Bibionoidea, Scatopsoidea, Sciaroidea) as a sister to Brachycera, and Axymyiidae and Perissommatidae as a sister to Bibionomorpha + Brachycera. Phylogenetic network analysis tentatively suggests a possible reticulation leading to Bolitophilidae, and mitochondrial data support sex‐specific ...

Abstract We demonstrate the presence of the oldest identifiable marine magnetic anomalies in the Phoenix lineations of the western Pacific based on careful assessment of new data. Recently acquired sea surface magnetic anomalies and multichannel seismic profiles confirm magnetic signals recorded within the Middle‐Jurassic to Early Cretaceous basement ...
