Plio‐Pleistocene Antarctic Bottom Water Production in the Ross Sea Reconstructed From Hillary Canyon Levee Turbidites

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Dense shelf water (DSW) formed on Antarctica's continental shelves is a significant precursor for Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW), a critical component of global overturning circulation. We hypothesize that DSW cascades off the central Ross Sea shelf generated density currents that entrained sediment as they flowed down Hillary Canyon, resulting

Pliocene–Pleistocene Redox Evolution of the Peruvian Margin: A Multi‐Proxy Approach

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Due to upwelling of nutrient‐rich waters, the Peruvian Margin is one of the most productive regions of the global ocean, hosting one of the most pronounced and shallowest oxygen minimum zones. This combination of high productivity and low oxygen makes the Peruvian margin a critical site for reconstructing past environmental changes.

Detrital Zircon Data Support Stronger, Inland‐Tracking Hurricanes During the Miocene Climatic Optimum, Maryland USA

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Climate models run under warmer‐than‐modern conditions indicate that hurricanes pass closer to the US East Coast and show that a higher proportion of tropical cyclones achieve “major hurricane” strength with winds >209 km/hr. Empirical observations indicate that the dominant southward longshore current direction off the US East Coast is ...

QuickProt: A Fast and Accurate Homology‐Based Protein Annotation Tool for Non‐Model Organisms to Advance Comparative Genomics

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid growth of genome sequencing has outpaced the development of efficient annotation tools, especially for species lacking transcriptome data. To address this challenge, we present QuickProt, a fast, accurate and user‐friendly homology‐based protein annotation tool.

Lake Unloading Drives Fault Slip and Rift Asymmetry in Southern Tibet

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract The extent to which surface processes drive continental deformation remains a pivotal question in geodynamics. Here, we demonstrate that Late Quaternary lake‐water unloading is a primary driver of fault slip and rift asymmetry in southern Tibet.
