Piacenzian mixed carbonate‐siliciclastic succession (‘Macco’ unit) deposited on the passive margin of the Tyrrhenian back‐arc basin. Sedimentation was controlled by syn‐sedimentary tectonics, with NW–SE first‐order faults (3–4 km) creating accommodation space and NE–SW second‐order faults (~0.5 km) influencing facies distribution and growth structures.

Abstract KNM‐ER 64061 is a partial skeleton from the upper Burgi Member of the Koobi Fora Formation (2.02–2.06 Ma) associated taphonomically and geochemically with a nearly complete mandibular dentition (KNM‐ER 64060) attributed to Homo habilis.

Primary Productivity and Habitat Depth Shape Developmental Mode in European Marine Gastropods
Thorson's rule suggests that marine gastropods in colder, high‐latitude regions tend to have non‐pelagic (non‐drifting) larval development. However, this study on 94 European gastropod species found that the rule disappears when examined at finer spatial scales, with temperature and phylogeny having little influence.

Reconstructing ~200 years of landscape change at the Cancano–San Giacomo hydroelectric system (Central Alps), we integrate historical cartography, archival photographs, multitemporal aerial/satellite imagery and field validation to map pre‐ and post‐impoundment landforms.

ABSTRACT Complex stratigraphic arrangements may be generated through lateral facies transitions from the strata of aeolian depositional systems into bordering peritidal deposits. In such scenarios, sedimentary architectural complexity and associated facies heterogeneities are governed by the interplay between autogenic processes inherent to tidal ...

Biological and biologically‐inspired functional nanostructures with structural, thermal, optical, and sensing applications are reviewed. The role of nanoscale features in biological materials on performance is described, and their blueprints are used for bio‐inspired nanomaterials, synthesized using advanced techniques (i.e., photolithography, bio ...

ABSTRACT Relaxants are used in abalone aquaculture to facilitate handling, transport and grading stock, with minimal injury, stress, immune suppression and mortality. Benzocaine has been commonly used as an abalone relaxant but negative behavioural responses to exposure have been observed, and in some countries it has a withholding period, precluding ...

Abstract Modern technological evolution witnesses a fast‐paced progress in the design, science, and technology of light‐driven micro/nanomachines in the recent past. These micromachines have found enormous applications as micro/nanoscale manipulators, micromachined space exploration components, nano‐sized cell positioning and control, and micro ...

Jurassic jeopardy—life and death on an ancient seafloor
The Lower Jurassic Down Cliff Sand Member of the Dorset coast, southern England, is a rich source of marine invertebrate fossils. Among these are echinoderms and less common arthropods. Despite having multi‐component skeletons that are prone to disarticulation, remains of some of these are remarkably complete.
