Disparity of turbinal bones in placental mammals

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 749-777, April 2026.
Abstract Turbinals are key bony elements of the mammalian nasal cavity, involved in heat and moisture conservation as well as olfaction. While turbinals are well known in some groups, their diversity is poorly understood at the scale of placental mammals, which span 21 orders.

Comments on 'U-Pb dated flowstones restrict South African early hominin record to dry climate phases' (Pickering et al. Nature 2018;565:226–229)

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2020
Pickering et al. (Nature 2018;565:226–229) utilised calcium carbonate flowstone deposits (i.e. speleothems) from eight Pliocene and Pleistocene South African Cradle of Humankind cave sites to propose that biases were created within the fossil record due ...

From Ice to Isolation: A geochemical reconstruction of the palaeoenvironmental evolution of Gairloch, NW Scotland (UK), since the Last Glacial Maximum

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 507-519, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Complex relative sea‐level (RSL) changes are associated with the deglaciation of the British and Irish Ice Sheet (BIIS). Sediment archives from Loch Bad na h‐Achlaise, an isolation basin in NW Scotland, UK, span Late Glacial to Holocene time and record sea‐level change and ice proximity via a geochemical and biostratigraphic multiproxy ...

Diversity of Late Cenozoic Actinopterygian Assemblages of the South of Eastern Europe

open access: yesDiversity
In the late Cenozoic, the south-west of Eastern Europe was a region affected by extensive hydrological transformations that resulted in the retreat of the Eastern Paratethys and the emergence and further evolution of freshwater communities.

Holocene History of the Lower Seine Estuary and the Commerce Valley Tributary (Normandy, France): A Palaeoenvironmental Framework for the Roman Landscape of Juliobona (Lillebonne) and Implication for Port Conditions

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT The sediment infill deposits of the Lower Commerce Valley in the Seine estuary, located near the Roman city of Juliobona (now Lillebonne, Normandy), provide valuable data on environmental changes during the Holocene, including sea‐level changes, sediment supply and anthropogenic influences.

Microstratigraphy and Site Formation Processes at Quebrada Jaguay 280 (Peru)

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents a microanalytical, geoarchaeological study of Quebrada Jaguay (QJ)‐280, a Terminal Pleistocene–Holocene coastal site in southern Peru. Combining micromorphology, µXRF and µFTIR, we develop a site formation model that also reassesses site use and forager behaviour.
