Southern Portugal hydroclimate of the last millennium from near‐annually resolved speleothem records

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydroclimate in Portugal is influenced by the North Atlantic subtropical high‐pressure system (the Azores High) and by internal climate modes, most prominently the North Atlantic Oscillation, which may shift in position and/or intensity due to anthropogenic climate change.

Topographic and Climatic Determinants of Soil Organic Carbon Across Landscapes: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The soil is the greatest natural store of organic carbon, holding between 1500 to 1550 Pg C of organic carbon at the top 100 cm of the soil globally—roughly twice the carbon pool in the atmosphere. The spatial distribution of this stock is controlled by a complex chain of controls: topographic position regulates the hydrological redistribution,

The Hidden Harvest: Harnessing Colorado's Geodiversity and Environmental Heterogeneity for Sustainable Agritourism

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorado's geologic, pedologic, topographic, hydrological, and climatic contrasts create strong but under‐synthesized opportunities for sustainable agritourism. This review investigates how geodiversity, and the broader environmental heterogeneity within which it operates, can be used to diversify farm income, strengthen place‐based visitor ...

Mud volcanoes on Mars? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The term mud volcano is applied to a variety of landforms having in common a formation by extrusion of mud from beneath the ground. Although mud is the principal solid material that issues from a mud volcano, there are many examples where clasts up to ...

High temperature fracture behavior and damage evolution of recycled aggregate concrete produced from metakaolin modified parent concrete

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The increasing use of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) offers significant environmental benefits by reducing construction and demolition waste; however, its fracture performance and damage evolution under elevated temperatures remain insufficiently understood, particularly when recycled aggregates are derived from metakaolin modified parent ...

Bridging the Late Antique Gap in Northwest Arabia: New Archaeological Evidence on the Occupation of Wādī al‐Qurā (al‐ʿUlā [AlUla], Saudi Arabia) Between the Third and Seventh Centuries CE

open access: yesArabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2019, the Dadan Archaeological Project (CNRS/RCU/AFALULA) identified a Late Antique village 1 km south of ancient Dadan in the al‐ʿUlā valley (northwest Saudi Arabia). Three excavation seasons at this site (2021–2023) have uncovered a massive building constructed in the late third or early fourth cent.

Activity, Mud Migration, and Formation Mechanisms of Helgoland and Dvurechenskii Mud Volcanoes, Black Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The main motivations of this study was, to use the new near-to-seafloor remotely-operated instruments to obtain detailed information on the morphology, sedimentology and gas emissions of two neighboring mud volcanoes; the Dvurechenskii Mud Volcano (DMV ...

Soil wetting and drying processes influence stone artefact distribution in clay‐rich soils: A case study from Middle Gidley Island in Murujuga, northwest Western Australia

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.
