Abstract Historical biogeography faces a persistent conceptual and methodological dilemma concerning the nature of its central analytical units. Using the recent proposal by Schultz and Cracraft (Cladistics 40, 653) as a catalyst, this article critiques the argument that causal inference necessitates the replacement of areas of endemism with barriers ...

ABSTRACT Aim Island archipelagos serve as natural laboratories for understanding how geological history, climate change and dispersal limitation interact to shape diversification. Here, we examine how these forces influence patterns of genomic divergence, demographic dynamics and phenotypic variation in island‐endemic taxa, with a particular focus on ...

The Vallone Inferno rock-shelter is an archeological site located at 770 m a.s.l. in the Madonie massif in Sicily. This massif is modeled into the Triassic and Oligocene sedimentary rocks of the Imerese Basin.

TERTIARY PALAEOGEOGRAPHY OF JAPAN
In this treatise, six Palaeogeographic maps of Tertiary Japan are given, representing the different stages of the Tertiary Epoch. To facilitate comparison, those of the three stages of Cretaceous have been added. On each map is shown the distribution of Land and Sea when the sea transgression was the greatest.

ABSTRACT The integrated analysis of lithofacies, mineralogy and geochemistry of the hemipelagic marine succession exposed in La Cerradura section (South‐Iberian Palaeomargin) provides new information to characterise the palaeoenvironmental conditions during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian, including the Jenkyns Event.

THE CARPATHIAN RIVER SYSTEM IN ROMANIA – GENESIS AND EVOLUTION [PDF]
The present Carpathian valley network is the result of a long and complex process synchronous to the evolutionof the Carpathian orographic system during the Cretaceous – Quaternary period. Among other issues, this studyfocuses on the genesis of the great

Abstract Orbital forcing is a primary driver of paleoclimate change, but its influence on deep time climates, particularly in the polar regions of the Late Cretaceous, is poorly understood. Here, we conduct climate simulations with an atmosphere‐ocean‐vegetation coupled model, MIROC4mV, to investigate the response of northern high latitude temperature ...

The Vérard et al. (2015) method for 3D palaeogeographic reconstructions: How solid is its base?
Veacute;rard and co-workers proposed in an earlier issue of this journal a method to reconstruct the 3D palaeogeography “anywhere in the world at any time”.
