Revised History of Pleistocene Vertical Motions in NE Sicily and Southern Calabria, Italy, From 40Ar/39Ar Dating and Fault Zone Morphology

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Long‐term rates of crustal uplift in southern Calabria and NE Sicily are incompletely understood due to limited information about the age of marine terraces at 1.0–1.3 km above sea level (asl). This study provides a new constraint on high‐elevation terrace ages through integrated analysis of geochronology, stratigraphy, shoreline modeling, and

Evolution of Endemic Species, Ecological Interactions and Geographical Changes in an Insular Environment: A Case Study of Quaternary Mammals of Sicily (Italy, EU)

open access: yesGeosciences, 2013
The Quaternary mammals of Sicily are well known, and five faunal complexes have been distinguished on the basis of bioevents (extinctions and new arrivals) and evolution of endemic species.

Biogeographic consequences of shifting climate for the western massasauga (Sistrurus tergeminus)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
The western massasauga (Sistrurus tergeminus) is a small pit viper with an extensive geographic range, yet observations of this species are relatively rare.

Climate Change Challenges Grey Wolf Resilience: Insights From Dental Microwear

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
We investigate dietary plasticity in European grey wolves across interglacial periods using dental microwear texture analysis. Enhanced durophagy is associated with warm climates in both modern Polish and British Pleistocene wolves, indicating deep‐time behavioural flexibility.

Gravity-flow dominated sedimentation on the Buda paleoslope (Hungary): Record of Late Eocene continental escape of the Bakony unit [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The Upper Eocene sequence of the Buda Hills consists of fluvial and shallow marine conglomerates, sandstones, bioclastic shallow-water limestone, marlstone and pelagic Globigerina marl.

Past East Asian monsoon evolution controlled by paleogeography, not CO2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The East Asian monsoon plays an integral role in human society, yet its geological history and controlling processes are poorly understood. Using a general circulation model and geological data, we explore the drivers controlling the evolution of the ...

The regional evolution of a dryland fluvio‐aeolian and lacustrine succession in response to allocyclic forcing: insights from the Early Permian Cutler Group, Utah, USA

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 297-354, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Preserved allocyclic signatures in the rock record often reflect basin‐scale climatic variability and serve as key proxies for correlating ancient dryland successions. The notion of climate cyclicity, however, remains largely untested on regionally constrained, outcrop‐calibrated studies.

PALEOGEOGRAPHY OF THE AZOV­BLACK SEA BASIN IN QUATERNARY TIME

open access: yesГеологія і корисні копалини Світового океану, 2019
The article notes that during the Quaternary period there was at least 5—6 glaciations, which each time entailed a sharp change in the ecological and hydrological situation both in the Caspian Sea and in the Black Sea.

THE METHOD OF OVERLAYING PALEOCARD WITH MODERN AREALS AS ONE OF THE PALEOGEOGRAPHY RECONSTRUCTION METHODS IN RESEARCH OF HISTORY OF THE CAUCASIAN ISTHMUS AND ITS BIOTHA

open access: yesЮг России: экология, развитие, 2014
This work is about using of the method of overlaying paleocard of Caucasian Islands with modern areals of endemic plants and some animal groups (terrestrial molluscs, ground-beetles, rocky lizards and mammals) for getting out bioecological ground for ...
