Iron‐Bearing Minerals as Potential Indicators of Paleo‐Methane Seepage Evolution
Abstract Methane (CH4) release and consumption in marine cold seeps are key processes influencing seabed ecology, global climate reconstruction, and hydrate resource exploration. Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM), the primary methane consumption mechanism, typically couples with microbial sulfate or metal reduction.

. Modern tephra studies per se began almost 100 years ago (in the late 1920s) but the first collective of tephrochronologists, with a common purpose and nascent global outlook, was not formed until 7 September, 1961, in Warsaw, Poland.

Tephrochronology and the late Holocene volcanic and flood history of Eyjafjallajökull, Iceland [PDF]
The hugely disruptive Eyjafjallajökull eruptions of 2010 AD are well known, but the recent history of the volcano is not, which compromises both Icelandic and international hazard assessments and risk planning.

Climate variability over the last 92 ka in SW Balkans from analysis of sediments from Lake Prespa [PDF]
The transboundary Lake Prespa (Albania/former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia/Greece) has been recognized as a conservation priority wetland. The high biodiversity encountered in the catchment at present points to the refugial character of this ...

Stratigraphy and chronology of the Stent tephra, a c. 4000 year old distal silicic tephra from Taupo Volcanic Centre, New Zealand. [PDF]
Tephrostratigraphic and chronologic studies in two areas of the North Island have identified a previously unrecorded, thin, distal silicic tephra derived from the Taupo Volcanic Centre.

Tephrochronology in faulted Middle Pleistocene tephra layer in the Val dAgri area (Southern Italy)
The High Agri River Valley is a Quaternary Basin located along the hinge of the Southern Apennines fold-andthrust belt. The inner margin of the orogen has been affected by intense transtensional and normal faulting, which accompanied vigorous volcanism ...

Unravelling upbuilding pedogenesis in tephra and loess sequences in New Zealand using tephrochronology [PDF]
The genesis of soils developed in either tephra or loess on stable sites differs markedly from that of soils developed on rock because classical topdown processes operate in conjuction with geological processes whereby material is added to the land ...

Challenges in dating blanket peat and implications for understanding its initiation in Ireland
ABSTRACT Blanket peat is widespread in maritime extra‐tropical environments. Prehistoric land‐use activity was traditionally invoked as the stimulus of blanket peat initiation in the British Isles, but recently, climate has been viewed as the driver of peat formation.

Building an 18 000-year-long paleo-earthquake record from detailed deep-sea turbidite characterisation in Poverty Bay, New Zealand [PDF]
Two ~20 m-long sedimentary cores collected in two neighbouring mid-slope basins of the Paritu Turbidite System in Poverty Bay, east of New Zealand, show a high concentration of turbidites (5 to 6 turbidites per meter), interlaid with hemipelagites ...
