Change in South Asian Summer Monsoon During MIS7, an Interglacial Complex of the Middle Pleistocene With High Obliquity Forcing

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The South Asian summer monsoon is a major component of the global climate system, yet its response to varying boundary conditions remains debated. We present pollen data from IODP Site U1446 (Bay of Bengal), recording vegetation changes in India's Core Monsoon Zone (CMZ) between 260 and 190 ka, spanning Marine Isotopic Stage (MIS) 7.

A revised stratigraphy for the Palaeocene Agatdalen flora (Nuussuaq Peninsula, western Greenland): correlating fossiliferous outcrops, macrofossils, and palynological samples from phosphoritic nodules

open access: yesActa Palaeobotanica, 2016
The Cretaceous and Palaeogene floras of western Greenland that were initially described as part of the classical work “Flora fossilis arctica” by Oswald Heer in the 19th century are currently under revision.

Long‐Term Biodiversity–Stability Relationship in Temperate Mountain Forests

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Theories on ecological stability lack the long‐term observational data necessary to comprehend the dynamics of durable and complex ecosystems like forests; consequently, the influence of biodiversity on ecosystem stability remains predominantly unexplained.

Lower Devonian faunas and palynomorphs from the Dornes Syncline (Central Iberian Zone, Portugal): stratigraphical and paleogeographical implications

open access: yesCarnets de Géologie, 2010
In the Dornes syncline, southern Central Iberian Zone, Portugal, the uppermost levels of the Serra do Luação Formation up to now have been considered to be of Pridoli-Lochkovian?

Trimerous magnoliid flowers with a unique set of floral and pollen traits from the Late Cretaceous of Southern Bohemia (Czech Republic)

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2266-2283, August 2026.
Morphospace position and phylogenetic placements of Trimeriantha monopolyada. Summary Floral structure is a key aspect of angiosperm diversity. Recent research revealed that significant floral disparity was already present in the Cretaceous. However, our understanding of early floral diversity remains limited, as it is directly dependent on the fossil ...

Spatial distribution of pollen grains and spores in surface sediments of Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2012
Aiming to investigate the deposition of pollen grains and spores in Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro State, 61 surface sediment samples were analyzed. The results showed that the current deposition of palynomorphs in surface sediments of Guanabara Bay ...

Climate conditions on the South‐Iberian Palaeomargin during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian: A mineralogical and geochemical study from hemipelagic deposits

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1631-1663, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The integrated analysis of lithofacies, mineralogy and geochemistry of the hemipelagic marine succession exposed in La Cerradura section (South‐Iberian Palaeomargin) provides new information to characterise the palaeoenvironmental conditions during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian, including the Jenkyns Event.

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 672-685, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

Marine Isotope Stage 4 glaciation in northern England, UK: Evidence from Victoria Cave, North Yorkshire

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 770-783, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Victoria Cave, north Yorkshire, England, contains a long sequence of Pleistocene clastic sediments and calcite flowstones. Earlier work, using U–Th dating, established that the flowstone units formed in interglacial stages corresponding to Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 13, 11, 9, 7 and 5.

Digitizing collections to unlock the full potential of palynology: A case study with the Smithsonian palynology collection

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1116-1131, July 2026.
Large palynological collections have been built over decades and contain vital information. However, they are often difficult to access and use effectively. What is the point of having such collections if they are not fully utilizable? To solve this problem, we digitized the Smithsonian palynological collection using both light and confocal microscopy.
