A shallow-water oxygen minimum zone in an oligotrophic Tonian basin [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe Tonian Period (1000–720 Ma) bore witness to the transition from a prokaryote-dominated marine ecosystem to one characterized by the proliferation of eukaryotes.

Seismogenic potential and tsunami threat of the strike-slip Carboneras fault in the western Mediterranean from physics-based earthquake simulations [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 Strike-slip fault ruptures have a limited capacity to generate vertical deformation, and for this reason they are usually dismissed as potential destructive tsunami sources.

Biostratigraphy of large benthic foraminifera from the lower part of the Shahbazan Formation: revision of the age of the carbonate succession from the Tange Lilam section (Chenareh Anticline, Lorestan Basin) [PDF]
Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2022 In this study, the lower part of carbonate successions from the Shahbazan Formation in the Chenareh anticline of the Zagros sedimentary basin (SW of Iran) based on Large Benthic Foraminifera (LBF) was investigated.

Simulation-Based Inference of Surface Accumulation and Basal Melt Rates of an Antarctic Ice Shelf from Isochronal Layers [PDF]
J. Glaciol. 71 (2025) e44, 2023 The ice shelves buttressing the Antarctic ice sheet determine the rate of ice-discharge into the surrounding oceans. The geometry of ice shelves, and hence their buttressing strength, is determined by ice flow as well as by the local surface accumulation and basal melt rates, governed by atmospheric and oceanic conditions.

Darriwilian Saucrorthis Fauna: implications for the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event (GOBE) [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2014 The Saucrorthis Fauna is a brachiopod-dominated shelly fauna developed in relatively deeper-water benthic regimes of a few peri-Gondwana terranes (e.g.

The Llandovery (Silurian) conodont species diversity on the Upper Yangtze Platform, South China [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2014 Conodonts are one of the stratigraphically most important fossil groups in the Silurian Period. We examine the regional diversity dynamics of the Llandovery condonts on the Upper Yangtze Platform.

Stochastic resetting by a random amplitude [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 103, 052123 (2021), 2021 Stochastic resetting, a diffusive process whose amplitude is "reset" to the origin at random times, is a vividly studied strategy to optimize encounter dynamics, e.g., in chemical reactions. We here generalize the resetting step by introducing a random resetting amplitude, such that the diffusing particle may be only partially reset towards the ...
