I argue that, for Locke, reasoning is a matter of the subject's construing her mental states as support for a conclusion ...

The edible brown alga Sargassum fusiforme (Fucales) at the southern distributional limit in mainland Japan has declined on coasts facing the open ocean, showing reduced size and density

open access: yesPhycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY The status of the edible brown alga Sargassum fusiforme (Fucales) in Kagoshima in 2025, located at the southern distributional limit in Kyushu, mainland Japan, was investigated to assess whether its populations were stable or declining, based on comparisons with herbarium specimens and records from previous studies conducted between the 1960s ...

Spatial and temporal evolution of a coastal erg margin: the Middle Jurassic Page Sandstone, southern Utah, USA

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aeolian deflationary events are erosive to static stages where sediment supply is insufficient to support bedform migration and preservation in the rock record. In the vicinity of shallow‐marine environments, inland rises of relative water table and associated generation of deflationary super surfaces may be driven by the onset of ...

Rethinking microtidal systems: Tidal signatures in the fluvial deposits of the Po River, Italy

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In microtidally influenced rivers, tides are generally assumed to leave virtually no signatures in the sedimentary record. However, this hypothesis has been surprisingly poorly tested using modern river analogues, which provide an opportunity to assess whether sedimentary signatures of microtidal regimes can develop in rivers that lack ...
