Lithospheric 3D gravity modelling using upper-mantle density constraints: Towards a characterization of the crustal configuration in the North Patagonian Massif area, Argentina [PDF]
, 2017 The North Patagonian Massif is an Argentinean plateau that has an average height of 1200 m and stands from 500 to 700 m above the neighboring areas. During Paleogene, it suffered a sudden uplift of more than 1200 m without noticeable internal deformation;

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.Abstract In this paper we document the first example‐the southern Delaware Basin‐where widespread induced triggered (as opposed to “driven”) seismicity across a large area exhibits a maximum magnitude truncation. The most likely cause of this truncation is that although the shallow faults in this area are many km in length, they are structurally ...

Textural and Lithologic Differences of Cretaceous, Tertiary, and Quaternary Gravels of South Arkansas [PDF]
, 1987 Stream gravels have been derived from the Ouachita Mountains since at least Cretaceous times. Past studies have assigned ages to gravel deposits in the basins of the Saline and Little Missouri Rivers on the basis of altitude above local floodplains. This

Late Triassic Hydroclimatic Changes in Central China Linked to Evolving Mountain Topography
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.Abstract During the Late Triassic, tropical Pangea drifted northward into subtropical latitudes and became progressively drier. In contrast, South China, despite experiencing a similar latitudinal shift, transitioned from an arid to humid climate. Based on the sedimentary record of the Zigui Basin, this study constrains the arid to humid climatic shift

Carbonate sedimentology: An evolved discipline
The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Although admired and examined since antiquity, carbonate sediment and rock research really began with Charles Darwin who, during a discovery phase, studied, documented and interpreted their nature in the mid‐19th century. The modern discipline, however, really began after World War II and evolved in two distinct phases.

Gut microbiota as a trigger of accelerated directional adaptive evolution. Acquisition of herbivory in the context of extracellular vesicles, microRNAs and inter-kingdom crosstalk [PDF]
, 2017 According to a traditional view, the specific diet in vertebrates is one of the key factors structuring the composition of the gut microbiota. In this interpretation, the microbiota assumes a subordinate position, where the larger host shapes, through ...
