Indonesian Throughflow drove Australian climate from humid Pliocene to arid Pleistocene [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2017 Late Miocene to mid‐Pleistocene sedimentary proxy records reveal that northwest Australia underwent an abrupt transition from dry to humid climate conditions at 5.5 million years (Ma), likely receiving year‐round rainfall, but after ~3.3 Ma, climate ...

Subtropical to temperate late Neogene to Quaternary planktic foraminiferal biostratigraphy across the Kuroshio Current Extension, Shatsky Rise, northwest Pacific Ocean. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 Planktic foraminiferal biostratigraphic zonation schemes are critical for providing first-order relative age control in deep-sea sediments and provide the basis on which to interpret evolutionary dynamics through time.

A new Antipathozoanthus species (Cnidaria, Hexacorallia, Zoantharia) from the northwest Pacific Ocean. [PDF]
Zookeys, 2021 A new species of zoantharian within the genus Antipathozoanthus is described based on specimens collected from the coast of mainland Japan, northwest Pacific Ocean. Antipathozoanthus tubussp. nov. is characterized by its substrate (epibiotic on polychaete tube) and habitat (exposed rock).

Hadal zones of the Northwest Pacific Ocean [PDF]
Progress in Oceanography, 2021 Abstract Understanding the extent of the hadal ecosystem (habitats exceeding 6000 m water depth) is convoluted due to the complexity of seafloor geomorphology that accounts for 45% of the total ocean depth range. Furthermore, at such great depths, features such as fracture zones and basins, although numerous, are less prominent and therefore have ...

Pathogens, 2022 Many pathogens can cause cancer, but cancer itself does not normally act as an infectious agent. However, transmissible cancers have been found in a few cases in nature: in Tasmanian devils, dogs, and several bivalve species. The transmissible cancers in
