Late Jurassic Carbon Isotope Excursion (Middle Oxfordian Event) Paces With Astronomical Forcing in the Northwestern Tethys

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Marine carbonate carbon isotopes (δ13C), over orbital to multi‐million‐year timescales, provide critical insight into the carbon cycle connecting Earth's atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere. However, the influence of astronomical forcing on deep time carbon cycle dynamics remains poorly constrained.

Laurasian Seaway History During the Early Jurassic From Quantitative Mineralogy and Detrital Zircon Dating

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The Laurasian Seaway comprises a N‐S oriented trans‐Pangaean corridor linking Tethys to the Boreal Sea during the Jurassic, and direction of water flow has been the subject of considerable debate. The Llanbedr (Mochras Farm) borehole, Cardigan Bay Basin, Wales, is a uniquely informative record that comprises an expanded deep‐marine silty ...

Orbital and Millennial‐Scale Cycles Paced Climate Variability During the Late Paleozoic Ice Age in the Southwestern Gondwana

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Orbital cycles are related to variations of Earth's orbit through time and exert profound control on glacial and interglacial climates due to changes in insolation.

Assessing the Response of Blanket Peatlands to Climate Change Using the DigiBog Model and Winter's Concept of the “Hydrologic Landscape”

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Peatlands are important global carbon stores, but it is unclear whether they will continue as carbon sinks under future climates, or degrade, leaking carbon to the atmosphere. We used the DigiBog peatland development model to explore this question for a blanket peatland in Glen Affric, Scotland, investigating how topography and climate have ...

Identification of Milankovitch Cycles and Their Sedimentary Responses in Fine-Grained Depositional Strata on the Southwestern Margin of the Songliao Basin

open access: yesApplied Sciences
A series of fault depressions developed in the Kailu area on the southwestern margin of the Songliao Basin, where thick lacustrine fine-grained sedimentary rocks were widely deposited during the initial faulting stage in the Early Cretaceous.

A physiological approach to oceanic processes and glacial-interglacial changes in atmospheric CO2

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2008
One possible path for exploring the Earth’s far-from-equilibrium homeostasis is to assume that it results from the organisation of optimal pulsating systems, analogous to that in complex living beings. Under this premise it becomes natural to examine the

Changing Regional Land Surface Albedos Alter the Planetary Albedo During the Twenty‐First Century

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The top‐of‐atmosphere (TOA) albedo controls the amount of solar energy absorbed by Earth and is influenced by the reflectivity of both the atmosphere and surface. With considerable changes in land use over the past few decades it is reasonable to question whether a perturbed surface albedo has influenced TOA albedo over the corresponding ...

Cenozoic Time Constraints on the Evolution of a Gleysol‐Ferralsol‐Podzol Toposequence, Northwest Amazon Basin, Brazil

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
ABSTRACT Deciphering the time milestones of clay formation is crucial for modeling the evolution of major geological systems near the Earth's surface. In the present study, kaolinite samples collected along four vertical profiles within a Gleysol‐Ferralsol‐Podzol soil toposequence near São Gabriel da Cachoeira, NW Amazon Basin (Brazil) are dated using ...

ASTRONOMICAL CALIBRATION OF THE UPPER LANGHIAN/LOWERSERRAVALLIAN RECORD OF RAS IL PELLEGRIN SECTION (MALTA ISLAND, CENTRAL MEDITERRANEAN)

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2002
A high-resolution geochemical and micropaleontological data set has been obtained from the uppermost Langhian/lower Serravallian marly sediments of the Ras il Pellegrin section (Malta Island).
