Assessing the intensity of Late Quaternary humid phases in the Nefud Desert, northern Arabia

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 207-218, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The climate history of the major dryland zones of the world, such as the Saharo–Arabian Desert belt, plays a key role in the dispersal of early humans through these intermittently inhospitable regions. Here, we assess the relative intensity of Late Quaternary humid phases in northern Arabia through lithological, geochemical, palaeoecological ...

Ferromagnesian Clay Diversity Across Mars' Crustal Dichotomy: A Window Into Early Aqueous Environments

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Extensive research over the past two decades has shown that early Mars likely had a warmer, wetter climate with widespread water activity. Ferromagnesian (Fe,Mg‐rich) clay deposits are compelling markers of these ancient environments, helping reconstruct Mars' hydrologic evolution, assess past habitability, and guide future exploration.
