Interplay Between Tectonics and Submarine Mass Transport Deposits in Cortes Basin: New High‐Resolution Geophysics in the Outer California Borderland

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Outer California Borderland (OCB) is an active transform plate boundary offshore Southern California, where the relationship between faulting and submarine mass transport deposits (MTDs) remains poorly understood. Onshore paleoseismic data provide high‐resolution earthquake records, whereas marine geophysical data capture longer‐term ...

Revised History of Pleistocene Vertical Motions in NE Sicily and Southern Calabria, Italy, From 40Ar/39Ar Dating and Fault Zone Morphology

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Long‐term rates of crustal uplift in southern Calabria and NE Sicily are incompletely understood due to limited information about the age of marine terraces at 1.0–1.3 km above sea level (asl). This study provides a new constraint on high‐elevation terrace ages through integrated analysis of geochronology, stratigraphy, shoreline modeling, and

Calcareous Nannofossils in Middle Triassic (Anisian)-A preliminary note

open access: yesGeologija, 1991
In this note nannofossils of Anisian age are reported in a Middle Triassic flysch sequence in southern Montenegro (Dinarides). The rich and various nannofossils are largely different from those described either in Paleozoic-Upper Triassic or in younger ...

Relationship and Source of Whitings Used as a Painting Ground in Icons From Polish Museum Collections Based on Their Calcareous Nannofossil Content

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 132-143, February 2026.
ABSTRACT In icon painting, chalk whiting is key to creating a gesso ground, providing a smooth, absorbent surface for paint. Calcareous nannofossils, tiny marine skeletons found in chalk, are an ideal tool for analyzing the origin of an icon's chalk ground, often the only reliable information about where the icon came from.

Integrated stratigraphy of the Upper Barremian–Aptian sediments from the south-eastern Crimea

open access: yesGeologica Carpathica, 2018
Previous studies made in different parts of the world have shown that Barremian–Aptian times imply many difficulties in deciphering the biostratigraphy, microfossil evolution and correlation of bioevents.

From Quarries to Urban Construction Sites: Middle‐Late Mesozoic Limestones in the Public Architecture of Roman Verona, Italy

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Numerous buildings, monuments, and infrastructural works in Verona were constructed during the Roman period using stone, a material abundantly available from quarrying areas located relatively close to the city. Petrographic investigations conducted by Transmitted Polarized Light Optical Microscopy (TPL‐OM) and complemented by colorimetric ...

Sea Surface Temperature and Salinity Changes in the Easternmost Mediterranean During the Pre‐Evaporitic Messinian Controlled by the Restriction at Gibraltar

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract During the latest Miocene, the Mediterranean Basin was affected by extreme paleoceanographic and paleoenvironmental changes culminating with evaporite (gypsum and halite) formation during the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC: 5.97–5.33 Ma).

Organic Carbon Burial following the Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum (MECO) in the central - western Tethys

open access: yes, 2010
We present trace metal geochemistry and stable isotope records for the middle Eocene Alano di Piave section, NE Italy, deposited during magnetochron C18n in the marginal Tethys Ocean. We identify a $\sim$ 500 kyr long carbon isotope perturbation event we
