Morphostructural Setting and Tectonic Evolution of the Central Part of the Sicilian Channel (Central Mediterranean) [PDF]

Lithosphere, 2021
Abstract The Plio-Quaternary tectonic evolution of the central sector of the Sicilian Channel and the resulting morphostructural setting have been analyzed using a large geophysical dataset consisting of multichannel seismic profiles, which some of them never published, and available bathymetric data.

Evidence of Genetic Continuity in the Shortfin Mako Shark (<i>Isurus oxyrinchus</i>) Between the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Genomic analyses of shortfin mako sharks from the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea reveal a single genetically mixed population, indicating high connectivity across basins. Demographic reconstruction suggests historical stability, though recent declines may be beyond the resolution of our markers. These results underscore the need for coordinated
