Early Implant Placement With Simultaneous Maxillary Sinus Floor Lateral Window Opening in a Patient With Severe Periodontitis: A Case Report With 18‐Month Follow‐Up

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Standardized periodontal treatment followed by modified transcrestal lateral small‐window sinus elevation and simultaneous early implant placement for severe periodontitis with maxillary bone deficiency/edentulism was safe and feasible at 18‐month follow‐up, resolving bone insufficiency, shortening treatment course and yielding good implant ...

The Spectroscopic Impact of Sublimation Under Martian Surface Conditions: Implications for Sample Analysis by the Rosalind Franklin Rover and Biosignature Preservation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The 2028 ESA/NASA Rosalind Franklin Mission (RFM) will search for signs of past and present life in the shallow subsurface of Mars. It is crucial to understand how minerals and any biosignatures uncovered during these sampling activities might change and be identified under today's Martian conditions.

Sourcing carnelian beads from the ancient Mesopotamian site of Kish, Iraq, 2450–2200 BCE: Stylistic, technological and geochemical approaches

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S1, Page S22-S37, April 2026.
Abstract Trade between Mesopotamia and the Indus Civilization is studied through the analysis of Early Dynastic III Period (2600–2350 BCE) carnelian beads from the site of Kish, Iraq. Morphological and technological features of the beads are compared with beads from the Indus region.

Drilling Within the Critical Zone

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
This review synthesises 30 years of critical zone drilling methodologies for studying subsurface weathering, water storage, and biogeochemical processes. We evaluate drilling techniques, sampling strategies, downhole logging, and long‐term monitoring approaches while addressing contamination control and core preservation challenges.

Quantifying Gas and Thermal Energy Emissions in an Active Geothermal Area: Insights From Le Biancane (Larderello Field, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Larderello‐Travale area in the northern Apennines of Italy hosts the world's oldest exploited geothermal field. Its success lies primarily in the presence of an extraordinary geothermal resource housed in a large vapor‐dominated fractured reservoir that produces superheated steam.
