Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

On Unease and Discomfort About the Anthropocene

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The proposal for a formal inclusion of the Anthropocene as a new unit of the Geologic Time Scale (GTS) was rejected in part on the grounds that it would sit uncomfortably in the GTS. The durations of all GTS units tend to become shorter toward the present. The proposed Anthropocene epoch and Crawfordian age fit that trend comfortably.

The Cenomanian–Turonian boundary interval in the Western Canada Foreland Basin: Stratigraphy, geochemistry, geochronology and sea‐level changes recorded in expanded and condensed clastic successions

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 1200-1258, November 2025.
Shallow‐marine mudstone of the Cretaceous Kaskapau Formation in the British Columbia foredeep preserves a 185 m thick record of OAE2. The organic carbon‐isotope and osmium‐isotope excursions can be correlated in detail with other Cenomanian–Turonian boundary sections around the world.
