Kuwae, Epi and Tongoa Islands: Transformations of a volcanic landscape in central Vanuatu

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 60, Issue 1, Page 42-62, April 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a detailed overview of archaeological research undertaken on Epi and Tongoa, in central Vanuatu. These islands were previously connected to one another and respectively formed the western and eastern portions of Kuwae, one of the largest islands in the Vanuatu archipelago, until the catastrophic Tombuk volcanic eruption ...

Twenty‐thousand‐year gap between deglaciation and peat formation on sub‐Antarctic Marion Island attributed to climate and sea level change

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 437-444, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Radiocarbon dating of basal peats has been a key factor in determining minimum ages for deglaciation on sub‐Antarctic islands. On Marion Island, peat bogs dominate the landscape below 300 m a.s.l., and palynological assessments of peat cores have been used to assess the vegetation history and succession rates as well as the sensitivity of the ...

A Habitable Planet around HD 85512? [PDF]

arXiv, 2011
Aims: In this study we assess the habitability of HD85512b, a 3.6M_Earth planet orbiting a K5V star. The radial velocity data and orbital parameters for HD 85512 b have just been published, based on data from the dedicated HARPS-upgrade GTO program. Methods: This paper outlines a simple approach to evaluate habitability of rocky planets from radial ...

Limits on the Efficacy of Wave‐Particle Interaction on the Energization and Transport of Atomic and Molecular Heavy Ionospheric Ions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Ionospheric molecular ions, such as N2+ ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}^{+}$, NO+, and O2+ ${\mathrm{O}}_{2}^{+}$, have been observed in Earth's high‐altitude ionosphere and the magnetosphere by several spacecraft missions. Their presence not only indicates that they obtain sufficient energy through effective energization mechanisms, predominantly during ...

Widespread Diagenesis at Unconformities in Gale Crater as Inferred From the Curiosity Rover and From Orbit

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract NASA's Curiosity rover has found widespread evidence of alteration in sedimentary rocks in Gale crater, Mars driven by interactions with fluids both before and after lithification (early and late diagenesis). Most notably, Curiosity observed distinctive color, chemical, and mineralogical changes interpreted as evidence of diagenesis at the ...

Effects of Planetary Mass Uncertainties on the Interpretation of the Reflectance Spectra of Earth-like Exoplanets

The Astronomical Journal
Atmospheric characterization of Earth-like exoplanets through reflected light spectroscopy is a key goal for upcoming direct imaging missions. A critical challenge in this endeavor is the accurate determination of planetary mass, which may influence the ...
