Palaeobiology of Early Carboniferous lacustrine biota of the Waaipoort Formation (Witteberg Group), South Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The Early Carboniferous (Visean) Waaipoort Formation (Cape Supergroup, Witteberg Group) is a heterolithic sandstone dominated formation containing apatite-rich and calcite-rich fossiliferous nodules.

Small fish, large variation: Morphological diversity of Weberian apparatus in Noturus catfishes and ecological implications

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 308, Issue 12, Page 3069-3081, December 2025.
Abstract The Weberian apparatus is a hearing specialization unique to the otophysan fishes, and an unexpected degree of morphological variation exists in species of the Noturus catfishes. Our aim in this study is to investigate relationships between morphological variations and ecology that may drive this variation.

Liebig Review: Legume–Rhizobium Symbiosis Under Selenium Fertilization: A Unique Dual Function in the Plant–Soil System

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 188, Issue 6, Page 861-872, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Selenium (Se) plays a vital role as a beneficial element in promoting the production of leguminous plants. It influences legume quality by improving crop nutritive value and contributing to human and animal health. Literature Review This review is timely, as there are gaps in understanding Se–rhizobia interactions in legumes, which ...

Current understanding of lymphoproliferative disease virus in wild turkeys

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
Lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV) is a retrovirus that can cause a spectrum of disease in wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo), from subclinical infection to lymphoid tumors. We reviewed the literature to summarize our current understanding of LPDV, including disease presentation, surveillance, impact on fitness, spatiotemporal distribution, and ...

Seasonally Dependent Formation of Sulfates in the Basque Lakes, British Columbia, as Analogous to “Cold and Wet” and “Warm and Wet” Mars

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Saline lakes are expected to have been extensively present on ancient Mars, particularly as the planet dried or cooled. Such lakes likely deposited sulfate salts, as these salts have been widely identified from orbital and in situ Mars data. However, the relationship between martian sulfates and the environmental conditions that formed them ...

Reevaluating the Global Oceanic Copper Isotope Budget: The Critical Role of Deep‐Sea Pelagic Sediments

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 39, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Understanding the oceanic Copper (Cu) budget is essential for tracing nutrient pathways, interpreting ancient sediment records, and assessing global environmental changes. However, the global oceanic Cu cycle remains imbalanced, largely due to insufficient studies on the flux and isotopic composition of authigenic Cu in oxic pelagic sediments.

Palagonitization of Volcanic Rocks in Polar Climates: The Case of Deception Island (Antarctica)

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract A detailed study of palagonitization in rocks from Deception Island—one of Antarctica's most active volcanoes—has been performed to advance our understanding of this alteration process. A detailed petrographic (optical and SEM), mineralogical (XRD), and mineral and glass spot geochemistry (EDS and EMP) characterization has been conducted on ...

Abiotic Siliceous Botryoids on Iron Oxyhydroxide Filaments From Hydrothermal Vents in the Southwest Indian Ocean

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Fe‐oxidizing microorganisms in deep‐sea hydrothermal vent environments are often used as analogs for primordial life on Earth. In fact, Earth's oldest purported microfossils are preserved as hematite filaments in a jasper rock dated between 4,160 and 4,280 million years and are thought to have originated in a seafloor hydrothermal environment.

Diagenetic, Nonevaporative Origin for Calcium Sulfate Salts at Gale Crater

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Sulfate salts are deposited most commonly as evaporites on Earth; however, this is not their only origin. Pyrite oxidation during subsurface weathering is another common process on Earth that also produces a suite of sulfate salts—including the acidic phases jarosite and alunite—in sedimentary deposits.
