This study reveals unprecedented burning in tropical peatlands during the 20th century, mainly expressed in the Indomalayan and Australasian regions, emphasising regional variability in peatland burning and its links to modern human activities. Before this period, tropical peatland burning largely followed changes in global temperature and was ...

Palynostratigraphy and palynofacies of the early Eocene Gurha lignite mine, Rajasthan, India [PDF]
A 105 m early Eocene section exposed in the Gurha mine in the Nagaur-Ganganagar Basin, Rajasthan, India, archiving remains of equatorial vegetation at a time of extreme global warmth and close to the onset of the India-Eurasia collision, is investigated ...

Transfer cells in Horneophyton lignieri illuminate the origin of vascular tissues in land plants
Summary Recent fossil discoveries and advances in plant phylogeny have renewed debate about the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) of land plants and the evolution of its fundamental organs and tissues. We re‐investigate the vascular system of Horneophyton lignieri, an exceptionally preserved Rhynie Chert fossil central to understanding early plant ...

Palaeoecology of Middle Devonian epizoans and their Paraspirifer hosts
Abstract The Silica Shale brachiopod, Paraspirifer bownockeri, of Ohio and Michigan, USA, preserves a unique window into Middle Devonian communities, as individuals hosted numerous epibionts. Herein, we use qualitative and quantitative methods to test hypotheses regarding the palaeoecology of these brachiopod hosts and their epibionts.

Foraminifera and palaeoenvironment of elevated Late Pleistocene sands, White Rock Point, southeastern Tasmania [PDF]
A well-preserved foraminiferal fauna similar to that living in nearby Ralphs Bay in southeastern Tasmania is documented from raised shallow-water sediment of 130-119 Ka age (Late Pleistocene; Marine Isotope Stage 5e) at about 24m above modern sea level ...

Cooling climate across last interglacial high stands on San Salvador and Great Inagua, The Bahamas
Temperature data comparison with last interglacial mollusc clumped isotope data from this study, as well as from Bermuda (Minnebo et al., 2024; Zhang et al., 2021). The ‘later’ and ‘earlier’ ages within MIS 5e refer to Reef II and Reef I, respectively, for Bahamas data.

Palaeoenvironmental and diagenetic reconstruction of a closed-lacustrine carbonate system - the challenging marginal setting of the Miocene Ries Crater Lake (Germany) [PDF]
Chemostratigraphic studies on lacustrine sedimentary sequences provide essential insights on past cyclic climatic events, on their repetition and prediction through time.
