Detrital platinum group minerals (PGM) are rare and distinctive in Pleistocene–Holocene sedimentary systems of the southern South Island, thereby enabling tracking of their long‐distance transport for ∼200 km. The first ∼100 km of transport involved Pleistocene glaciofluvial processes southwards down the Waiau River, where PGM (principally Pt–Fe and Ru–

Reconstructing China's Natural Streamflow at 1‐km Resolution
Abstract Climate change and intensifying human activities are placing unprecedented pressure on China's water resources, necessitating high‐resolution, naturalized streamflow records for effective management. We develop a 1‐km gridded fully coupled land‐surface‐hydrologic‐hydrodynamic modeling system for China based on the CLHMSv2.0 model.

Ellipsis licensing and redundancy reduction: A focus-based approach
The focus of this paper is the characterization of the identity condition on sluicing. While the formulation of this condition remains an open issue, recent work suggests that sluices are anaphoric to an implicit question or issue that the antecedent ...

A new acoustic telemetry tag that identifies carrier mortality by monitoring activity level
Abstract We present a new acoustic telemetry tag capable of detecting whether its carrier stops moving for long enough to presume the organism has died, and of reporting the time elapsed since movement ceased. The tag uses existing environmental sensor technology together with an algorithm with user‐specifiable thresholds, and importantly, can separate

Antecedent Selection for Sluicing: Structure and Content
Sluicing is an elliptical process where the majority of a question can go unpronounced as long as there is a salient antecedent in previous discourse. This paper considers the task of antecedent selection: finding the correct antecedent for a given case ...
