Paleogeography

, 2015
A paleogeographic understanding of the genesis of a landscape in time and space is needed to collect and understand data for sea-level reconstruction. So-called sea-level index points can be derived from numerous sedimentary environments, but what is their indicative meaning and value?

Detrital zircon ages, Lu‐Hf isotopes of zircon grains, Sr‐Nd isotopes on whole rock and geochemistry of Campanian turbidites in the Eastern Pontides (NE Türkiye): A provenance assessment and Gondwana records

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 4, September 2026.
These findings confirm that the Campanian‐aged Bozbent Member turbiditic sequence in the Eastern Pontides was deposited in an extensional fore‐arc basin and therefore exhibits the petrographic and geochemical characteristics of passive margin sandstones.

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

Geosciences, 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.

Climatic niche divergence and high‐elevation adaptation promoted rapid diversification of Pimoa spiders in Pan‐Himalaya

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
The Pan‐Himalayan region harbors exceptional biodiversity, yet the origins and underlying mechanisms driving this remarkable diversity remain poorly understood, especially among species‐rich invertebrates. Pimoa spiders exhibit an intercontinental disjunct distribution across three major mountain regions: the Rockies, the Alps, and the Pan‐Himalaya ...

Petrogenesis and Tectonic Implication of the Newly Identified Rhyacian and Orosirian Orthogneisses in the Northwestern Part of the Gyeonggi Massif (Soyeonpyeongdo and Ganghwado Areas), South Korea: Constrained From Whole‐Rock Geochemistry and Zircon U‐Pb‐Hf Isotopic Compositions

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Gyeonggi Massif is one of the major Precambrian basements in the Korean Peninsula where Paleoproterozoic orthogneiss and paragneiss were widely exposed. In this study, newly identified Rhyacian to Orosirian meta‐igneous rocks from the northwestern Gyeonggi Massif (Soyeonpyeongdo and Ganghwado areas) were investigated to elucidate their ...

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

Юг 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 ...

Enriching Paleogeographic Reconstruction Through the Integration of Bayesian Age Models Into Site‐Based Apparent Polar Wander Paths

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Apparent polar wander paths (APWPs) synthesized from paleomagnetic data are foundational to our understanding of the long‐term motions of lithospheric plates. Recent progress has highlighted the advantages of developing such paths from paleomagnetic sites that provide individual snapshots of the ancient geomagnetic field.

Precession‐Related Variability in North Pacific Deep Water Formation in the Early Eocene: Insights From cGENIE Simulations

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Past warmhouse climates differed from the modern ocean circulation regime, with deep‐water formation occurring in regions that are inactive today. Evidence suggests that the North Pacific may have been one such region. The early Eocene, characterized by elevated greenhouse gas concentrations and orbitally paced carbon cycle perturbations ...
