The study outlines the tectono‐sedimentary evolution of the İnegöl Basin in north‐western Anatolia. Basin formation was controlled by interacting extensional and strike‐slip fault systems linked to uplift of the Uludağ Massif. Terrestrial sedimentation from the Miocene to Pleistocene is reconstructed using abundant fossil mammal assemblages that ...

Geoheritage meaning of past humidity in the central Western Desert of Egypt
The central part of the Western Desert of Egypt, where the Bahariya and Farafra oases are situated, possesses many notable geological features. However, to date the related geoheritage information remains incomplete. Field investigation has permitted the

We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

Wetlands are dynamic landscapes and their spatial extent and types can change over time. Mapping wetland locations, types, and monitoring wetland typological changes have important ecological significance. The National Wetlands Inventory data suffer from

The Megalopolis Basin is located in the central Peloponnese (Greece), a region that is situated along one of the primary Pleistocene biogeographical corridors for intracontinental hominin migration. The basin comprises several hundred metres of Plio‐Pleistocene sediments alternating between clastics and lignites.

Glacially overdeepened valleys in the northern Alpine Foreland preserve Middle to Late Pleistocene sedimentary sequences that may serve as valuable archives for reconstructing past environmental changes in response to shifts in climate. This study presents a multidisciplinary analysis of two sediment cores from the overdeepened Wehntal Valley at ...

A New and Minuscule Annual Species of Montia (Montiaceae) From Alpine Fens in Otago, New Zealand
Montia minuscula Heenan is recognised as a new species from alpine habitats in Otago, South Island, New Zealand. It is currently known from only two locations, one in the Old Man Range (Kopuwai Conservation Area) and another in The Remarkables. It grows in palustrine fens that are associated with groundwater seepage such as from snowmelt and snowbanks.

Abstract To expose the pollution of marshes and swamps, whether by hydrocarbons or other contaminants, the French or Francophone author of the twentieth century must first confront a literary tradition that equates stagnant water with a volatile poison and, more broadly, wetlands with toxic environments. In his article “Wetland Gloom and Wetland Glory,”

The Deccan infra- and intertrappeans volcano-sedimentary sequences have been considered as terrestrial to fluvio-lacustrine deposits. Presence of planktonic foraminifera and brackish water ostracods in the Jhilmili basal Danian intertrappean beds ...
