. The Bebedero tectonic depression in San Luis province, Argentina, is a closed drainage basin that has formed as a result of block‐faulting and rifting processes. The Bebedero lake exhibits notable similarities to the endorheic watersheds of the western United States, particularly those of Death Valley, the Saline Valley and, to a lesser extent, the ...

Effects of life history strategies and habitats on limb regeneration in plethodontid salamanders
Abstract Background Salamanders are the only tetrapods that exhibit the ability to fully regenerate limbs. The axolotl, a neotenic salamander, has become the model organism for regeneration research. Great advances have been made providing a detailed understanding of the morphological and molecular processes involved in limb regeneration.

Abstract Willi Hennig's (Beitr. Ent. 1960, 10, 15) Die Dipteren‐Fauna von Neuseeland als systematisches und tiergeographisches Problem applied a phylogenetic approach to examine the distributional patterns exhibited by the Diptera of New Zealand. Hennig showed how phylogenetic trees may be used to infer dispersal, based on the progression and deviation

A zoogeographic model for the evolution of diversity and endemism in Madagascar
The delineation of zoogeographic regions is essential for understanding the evolution of biodiversity. Madagascar, characterized by high levels of endemism and habitat diversity, presents unique challenges and opportunities for such studies. Traditional global zoogeographic classifications, largely based on vertebrates, may overlook finer‐scale ...

Abstract Body metrics are considered as master traits that regulate physiological, behavioural and life history features of planktic cyanobacteria and microalgae. Although the distribution of their morphological traits reflects the various trade‐offs and strategies needed for survival in pelagic habitats, previous methods for quantifying phytoplankton ...

Abstract Manganese (Mn) oxidation in marine environments requires oxygen (O2) or other reactive oxygen species in the water column, and widespread Mn oxide deposition in ancient sedimentary rocks has long been used as a proxy for oxidation. The oxygenation of Earth's atmosphere and oceans across the Archean‐Proterozoic boundary are associated with ...

Abstract Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) are bacterial membrane lipids that are frequently employed as paleoenvironmental proxies because of the strong empirical correlations between their relative abundances and environmental temperature and pH.

ABSTRACT Water bodies located in floodplains and tropical forests are known to be important carbon stores, but many are subjected to intensive pressures from damming, land use and climate changes. Sedimentary records preserve long‐term archives for understanding how such changes affect the quantity and quality of carbon stores.
