Modelling marsupial mastication: The biomechanical bite model of the Linnaeus's mouse opossum Marmosa murina (Marsupialia, Didelphidae)

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 247, Issue 6, Page 1187-1203, December 2025.
The marsupial masticatory apparatus has rarely been studied until recently, mainly in Australasian species. We therefore reconstructed the maximum bite forces of the South American Linnaeus's mouse opossum Marmosa murina using in vivo bites, specimen dissections, and 3D static equilibrium of the jaw muscles.

How is the third jaw joint in whales different? Diverse modes of articulation between the jaws of whales

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 247, Issue 6, Page 1224-1240, December 2025.
This study conducts the first comprehensive morphological investigation of the mandibular symphysis in whales. Using gross anatomical observation and CT cross‐sectional data, we describe diverse joint morphologies across 74 extant and fossil cetacean taxa. Toothed whales exhibit unfused, partially fused, or fully fused symphyses.

Kuroko Deposits of NE Japan: The Product of High‐Temperature, Shallow Felsic Volcanism in a Deepening Continental Rift

Terra Nova, Volume 37, Issue 6, Page 377-383, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The Hokuroku district of NE Japan hosts the type locality for Kuroko volcanic‐hosted massive sulphide (VHMS) deposits, which are the product of seafloor hydrothermal venting in a continental rift during the opening of the Sea of Japan in the Miocene.

Fe Oxidation State and Oxygen Isotope Composition of Diverse Metasomatized Peridotite Rocks

Terra Nova, Volume 37, Issue 6, Page 403-412, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Metasomatic fluids are thought to be oxidising agents that react with the surrounding mantle rocks, causing changes in the bulk Fe3+/∑Fe, their redox state, and affecting the partitioning of trace elements and the fractionation of O isotopes. Worldwide distributed metasomatized peridotites represent the ideal case study to investigate the role

Tracking Sediment Mixing Along the Lower Danube River From the Carpathians to the Black Sea

Terra Nova, Volume 37, Issue 6, Page 413-420, December 2025.
ABSTRACT We use detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology as a sediment provenance tracer in modern river sands to better understand how tectonic, climatic, and anthropogenic processes modulate sediment transport dynamics of the Carpathians to the Black Sea source to sink system.
