Bio‐mediated cementation of supratidal beach sediments associated with groundwater springs
Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The formation of beachrock, sensu stricto, via carbonate precipitation in the intertidal zone is widespread throughout the tropics and subtropics. While cementation of supratidal beach sediments has also been noted in several locations, it has received much less attention.

Spatial distribution of soda straws growth rates of the Coufin Cave (Vercors, France) [PDF]
International Journal of Speleology, 2010 The Choranche Cave system (Vercors, France) is an excellent locality for measuring the growth rates of large numbers soda straws. This is especially the case for the Coufin Cave, as enlargement of the cave entrance in 1875 led to a change in stalactite ...

Excavating in breccia: new methods developed at the Benzú rockshelter [PDF]
, 2012 Excavators examining breccia deposits are faced with the prospect of extracting finds from a material akin to concrete. Nevertheless such deposits are sometimes the only witness of early Palaeolithic occupation.

Microcodium in Chinese loess as a recorder for the oxygen isotopic composition of monsoonal rainwater [PDF]
, 2018 Records of Asia Summer Monsoon (ASM) from the Chinese loess and the speleothem display distinct features. The very different proxies that were applied to the two archives may be responsible for this discrepancy. A direct comparison between the speleothem

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.Abstract Understanding the mechanisms linking low‐latitude monsoon variability and high‐latitude ice‐sheet discharge is critical for elucidating past atmospheric teleconnections, yet direct evidence for such linkages during the last glacial period remains limited. Here we present a high‐resolution terrigenous input record from the South China Sea (SCS)
