Testing the Limits of Provenance Analysis From Basaltic Fluvial Sediment Near Sandvatn, Iceland, as a Mars Analog

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Detrital sediments that accumulate downstream and are preserved in sedimentary rocks can allow characterization of geologic formations that are inaccessible for spatial or temporal reasons. However, mixing, sorting, and alteration of sediment during transport may complicate reconstruction of protolith characteristics.

VOLCANIC ENVIRONMENTS MONITORING BY DRONES MUD VOLCANO CASE STUDY [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2013
Abstract. Volcanic activity has often affected human life both at large and at small scale. For example, the 2010 Eyjafjallajokull eruption caused severe economic damage at continental scale due to its strong effect on air traffic. At a local scale, ash fall and lava flow emission can cause harm and disruption.

The Spectroscopic Impact of Sublimation Under Martian Surface Conditions: Implications for Sample Analysis by the Rosalind Franklin Rover and Biosignature Preservation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The 2028 ESA/NASA Rosalind Franklin Mission (RFM) will search for signs of past and present life in the shallow subsurface of Mars. It is crucial to understand how minerals and any biosignatures uncovered during these sampling activities might change and be identified under today's Martian conditions.

The making of pure quartzose sand in continental interiors: Paraná River (Brazil and Argentina)

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 802-837, April 2026.
ABSTRACT As part of a comprehensive project on sedimentary processes in South America, this study focuses on sediment generation in the intracratonic Paraná Basin and monitors the evolution of sand composition along the Paraná River from central Brazil to the Río de la Plata estuary in Argentina.

Mechanochemical Enhancement of Siderite‐To‐Magnetite Conversion in Faults

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Magnetic phases in fault rocks offer potential “geothermometers” for estimating frictional heating during fault slip. However, the thermochemical kinetics of magnetic minerals subjected to shear deformation in hydrothermal fluids‐conditions typical of natural faults ‐ remains poorly understood, hindering accurate temperature estimates.

A 500‐kyr Pluvial Interval Triggered Lacustrine Carbon Burial in Late Cretaceous East Asia

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The early Late Cretaceous hothouse was featured by intense storms and a prevailing monsoon climate, yet direct evidence for regional extreme precipitation events is rare. Here, we reconstruct local weathering and hydrological processes using magnesium and strontium isotopes (δ26Mg and 87Sr/86Sr) from lacustrine dolostones in the Upper ...

Hotspots, trends, and regional focus on oil or gas exploration: A bibliometric comparative study

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 296-311, March 2026.
This paper explores the research trends in global oil and gas exploration through the bibliometric analysis of 3460 articles collected from the Web of Science database on oil and gas exploration published from 2013 to 2023. The research hotspots, objects, regional distribution, methods, and evaluation methods of oil and gas exploration are analyzed and

The Neolithic Site of Piano dei Cardoni in the Island of Ustica (Italy): Minero‐Petrographic and Chemical Characterization of the Ceramic Finds and Clayey Raw Materials

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents the results of minero‐petrographic and chemical analyses of pottery and potential local raw materials from Ustica, a small volcanic island off the coast of Palermo (Sicily), inhabited during the Middle Neolithic. Typologically, the pottery shows cultural connections to the Bicromica and Serra d'Alto traditions, linking ...
