Long‐Distance Aeolian Dust Deposited on the Island of Crete (Greece): Detection, Characterization, and Provenance

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Long‐distance aeolian dust transport represents one of the largest sediment fluxes on Earth, with North Africa being a dominant source. The island of Crete in the Eastern Mediterranean lies within major transport pathways but remains underexplored regarding multi‐proxy fingerprinting of deposited dust.

Genesis of Soils Formed from Mafic Igneous Rock in the Atlantic Forest Environment

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2016
Different parent materials participate in the formation of soils in the hilly landscape of “Mar de Morros” in the Atlantic Forest environment. Those derived from mafic igneous rock (gabbro) frequently show erosion problems because of land use, which is ...

Beyond temperature: The environmental constraints of high‐mountain microrefugia

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
Cold spots in an alpine landscape often sit on poor, rocky, carbon‐low soils rather than well‐developed ground. As climate warms, alpine plants may find these cold refuges too harsh to colonize, since many depend on richer soils than nival and subnival species do.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Gênese de solos derivados de rochas ultramáficas serpentinizadas no sudoeste de Minas Gerais Genesis of soils formed from ultramafic serpentinized rocks in southwestern Minas Gerais (Brazil)

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2006
Os solos derivados de rochas serpentinizadas ou serpentinitos constituem um grupo especial de solos em toda superfície terrestre. De caráter ultramáfico, ou seja, rochas com mais de 70 % de minerais máficos (ferromagnesianos), os serpentinitos apresentam

Mid‐infrared spectroscopy applied to a multi‐level cave system (Montmaurin, SW France): An innovative method for assessing sediment provenance

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1722-1749, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Deciphering sediment provenance is essential to understand depositional patterns and dynamics. This question is particularly important in archaeological contexts to constrain the sedimentological history of unearthed material—an information critically needed, for example, to estimate the age of the deposits—or to apprehend sediment movement ...

Weathering intensity and trace elements (Ni, Sr, Zn, and Cr) distribution in Vertisols developed on basalt in a semiarid environment: agronomic implications

Frontiers in Soil Science
Chemical weathering, a major geomorphic process, controls soil formation and evolution at the Earth’s surface and is strongly influenced by prevailing environmental conditions.

Source‐to‐sink sediment transport reversals during glacial sea‐level lowstands sustain soil formation on pericoastal carbonate terrains

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1892-1910, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the processes that drive soil formation is crucial for developing sustainable land‐use strategies, as changing land‐use practices and climate change exacerbate soil erosion. The formation of substantial arable soils on carbonate bedrock requires substantial dust accretion as the underlying bedrock lacks siliciclastic material. In
