New Results From the Pre‐Pottery Neolithic Site of Al Uyaynah, Tabuk, in Northwestern Saudi Arabia
ABSTRACT Al Uyaynah is a low sandstone mound on an alluvial plain, long known for its extensive surface remains of stone‐built circular and rectangular structures. Following test excavations in 2012, more detailed excavation was undertaken in 2016 within one of the largest rectangular stone structures.

ABSTRACT While oasis settlements emerged during the Bronze Age in Eastern and Northern Arabia, the settlement process in Central Arabia was different. Excavations at al‐Yamāma—main ancient settlement of the al‐Kharj oasis (Riyadh Province, KSA)—suggest that the latter did not emerge before the second half of the first millennium BCE.

Sandy Turbidity Current Acts as a Rusty Carbon Pump at the Shelf Edge
Abstract Sandy turbidity currents (STCs) efficiently sequester organic carbon (OC) through rapid burial. Yet our understanding of OC preservation within STC deposits remains far less constrained, especially considering STC deposits as an inferred major sink for iron‐bound OC (Fe‐OC), a long‐term stabilized form of OC.

Abstract Past variability of oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) provides key insights into future ocean deoxygenation. However, California margin OMZ records remain temporally limited, restricting evaluation of mechanisms across full glacial–interglacial cycles.
