Differential Craton Destruction Controlled by Fossil Structures in the Central North China Craton

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Craton evolution plays a fundamental role in stabilizing the continental lithosphere and the long‐term evolution of Earth's surface environment. The Shanxi Rift Zone (SRZ) within the North China Craton marks an ongoing craton destruction. Detailed lithospheric structure is essential to explain craton destruction.

A 500‐kyr Pluvial Interval Triggered Lacustrine Carbon Burial in Late Cretaceous East Asia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The early Late Cretaceous hothouse was featured by intense storms and a prevailing monsoon climate, yet direct evidence for regional extreme precipitation events is rare. Here, we reconstruct local weathering and hydrological processes using magnesium and strontium isotopes (δ26Mg and 87Sr/86Sr) from lacustrine dolostones in the Upper ...

Evaluation of existing knowledge of the tectonic history and lithospheric structure of South America [PDF]

While data is available on the lithospheric and crustal structure of the Andes region of South America, there is limited knowledge of these aspects of the eastern portion of the continent.

An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 3, Page 674-699, March 2026.
Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.

Conserved Gene Order and Adaptive Evolution in Mitochondrial Genomes of Calappa Crabs: Insights Into Ecological Specialization and Phylogenetic Utility

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study presents the first complete mitochondrial genomes of five Calappa species, filling a critical gap in genomic resources for the family Calappidae. Our analyses confirm the monophyly of Calappidae, detect positive selection in key energy metabolism genes (ATP6, ND2, ND5), and reveal conserved gene arrangement patterns.
