Correlations between local geoclimatic variables and hatchling body size in the sea turtles Caretta caretta and Chelonia mydas

open access: yesBMC Ecology and Evolution
It has been widely demonstrated that air and sand temperatures influence the anatomy of sea turtle hatchlings. We examined the impact of precipitation during the nesting season on the hatchling body size of loggerhead and green turtles from 37 beaches ...

Palaeoscolecids from the early Cambrian Guanshan biota, Yunnan Province, China

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Palaeoscolecidomorphs (Palaeoscolecida and Cricocosmiidae) are widespread early Palaeozoic worms crucial to understanding the early evolution of Ecdysozoa. They are well known from the early–middle Cambrian of the Yangtze Platform of South China, but research has disproportionately focused on the well‐known Cambrian Stage 3 Chengjiang biota of

Unusual biota and palynofacies of a Lower Devonian intermontane basin saline lake–playa mudflat ecosystem

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract The Strathpeffer–Struie Lower Devonian LORS (Lower Old Red Sandstone) deposits of the Northern Highlands of Scotland contain the decidedly unusual ‘foetid beds’. These are interpreted as being deposited in a highly saline sulphate lake and associated playa mudflat, which developed in an intermontane basin in the Caledonian Mountains of ...

Multiple indicators record human adaptations to climatic change during the Middle Holocene at the Wanbei site in the middle and lower Huai River valley, China

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 150-163, January 2026.
The archaeological sediment sequences analysis from the Wanbei site reveals a predominantly warm and humid climate with a brief cooling phase between 5600 and 5400 a BP, during the Middle Holocene in the middle and lower Huai River valley. Despite the cooling trend, rice remained the dominant crop in mixed farming, while the proportion of millet ...

Beachrock formation influenced by co‐seismic deformation and relative sea‐level changes during the Holocene near the Gulf of Saros, Türkiye (NE Aegean Sea)

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 231-257, January 2026.
This is the first proof of beachrock found on the nearshore of the Gulf of Saros. Beachrock generation was influenced by tectonic activity, geomorphological processes, and sedimentation. The Late Holocene beachrock deposits were altered by co‐seismic deformation.

The Neoproterozoic Throssell Range Group, Western Australia: A Peri‐Marginal Continental Basin in Rodinia and Its Implications for the Centralian Superbasin

open access: yesBasin Research, Volume 38, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
This study of recent exploration drillcore reveals two sequences separated by a disconformity. Basal alluvial fan to shallow marine lithofacies suggest reactivation of basement faults, and a distinct upwelling signature points to a flooded margin, controlled by differential subsidence of diverse Proterozoic lithosphere.

Paleoenvironmental aspects of the Tardiglacial and Early Holocene in eastern Spain: Macrobotanical remains front El Tossal de la Roca (Vall d'Alcala, Alicante)

open access: yesAnales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 1997
Charred macrobotanical remains from El Tossal de la Roca permit a better understanding of the Tardiglacial-Postglacial (Upper Palaeolithic levels) transition in Valencia region, showing evidence of a supramediterranean environment with Pinus nigra ...

Editorial: Geomorphology, palaeoenvironments and geoarchaeology of tropical environments

open access: yesGéomorphologie : relief, processus, environnement, 2018
Geomorphological research on tropical environments has a long tradition in French geomorphology. This research was long centred on the explanation of large morphostructures, in the first half of the 20th century; the renewal of geomorphology occurred through the study of processes of alteration, erosion and accumulation around the world, favouring the ...
