Late Miocene – Early Pleistocene paleogeography of the onshore central Hawke’s Bay sector of the forearc basin, eastern North Island, New Zealand, and some implications for hydrocarbon prospectivity [PDF]
The timing of trap formation in relation to the timing of source rock burial and maturation are important considerations in evaluating the hydrocarbon prospectivity of onshore parts of the forearc basin in central Hawke’s Bay.

Abstract In the present day, global oceans have absorbed most of the excess anthropogenic heat, abating surface temperature warming. The Mid‐Pliocene Warm Period (MPWP; ∼ ${\sim} $3.2 million years ago) offers an opportunity to understand how globally warmer climates store oceanic heat.

Deformation of continental crust along a transform boundary, Coast Mountains, British Columbia [PDF]
New structural, paleomagnetic, and apatite (U-Th)/He results from the continental margin inboard of the Queen Charlotte fault (~54°N) delineate patterns of brittle faulting linked to transform development since ~50 Ma.

The Pennsylvanian landscape in the Forest City basin was characterised by low‐lying lycopod tree and fern swamp forests with persistently high groundwater tables and adjacent fluvial channel, floodplain and upland environments. The occurrence of abundant charcoal within a specific thin interval in the Cherokee Group indicates substantial wildfire ...

Global correlation of lower mantle structure and past subduction
Advances in global seismic tomography have increasingly motivated identification of subducted lithosphere in Earth's deep mantle, creating novel opportunities to link plate tectonics and mantle evolution.

A new endemic genus of eomyid rodents from the early Miocene of Japan [PDF]
Fossil rodents are generally scarce in the Miocene of Japan. However, as much as three taxa of eomyid rodents had been reported from the early Miocene Nakamura Formation (ca. 18.5 Ma) in Gifu Prefecture, central Japan.

The PRISM4 (mid-Piacenzian) paleoenvironmental reconstruction [PDF]
The mid-Piacenzian is known as a period of relative warmth when compared to the present day. A comprehensive understanding of conditions during the Piacenzian serves as both a conceptual model and a source for boundary conditions and means of ...

Evolution and Provenance of the Polish Rotliegend in the Southern Permian Basin
Abstract The Southern Permian Basin (SPB) has been extensively explored for ore deposits. However, a comprehensive evaluation of the remaining copper potential, specifically for sediment‐hosted stratiform copper system, remains lacking. This study applies goSPL, an open‐source landscape and stratigraphic evolution model, to reconstruct the Permian rift‐

Mid- and late-Holocene shoreline changes along the southern coast of the Gulf of Finland [PDF]
In response to glacio-isostatic rebound in Estonia, a relative sea level fall occurred during the mid- and late-Holocene, and as a result, lowland regions in northern Estonia have experienced an evolution from sea to land.

The Relationship Between North and Middle American \u3ci\u3eStenonema\u3c/i\u3e (Ephemeroptera: Heptageniidae) [PDF]
Stenonema integrum (McDunnough) is shown to be a junior synonym of S. mexicanum (Ulmer.) n.syn. Subspecific status is delegated to Nearctic and Neotropical populations of this species as S. m. imegrum and S, m. mexicanum, respectively.
