Gradational development of slaty cleavage to schistosity -an example from the Iberian Pyrite Belt, Spain- [PDF]

, 1994
The Iberian Pyrite Belt is an Upper Paleozoic succession which has been divided into the Phyllite-Quartzite Group, the Volcanic-Sliceous Complex and the Culm Group in ascending order from base to the top. The contacts among them are conformable.

Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...

Variscan sourcing of Westphalian (Pennsylvanian) sandstones in the Canobie Coalfield, UK [PDF]

, 2010
The zircon age spectrum in a sample from the Canonbie Bridge Sandstone Formation (Asturian) of southern Scotland contains two main peaks. One is Early Carboniferous in age (348– 318 Ma), and corresponds to the age of igneous activity during the ...

Upper Devonian lithostratigraphy of Belgium

Geologica Belgica
The lithostratigraphic scale of Belgium, which is the cradle of several global Devonian stages, has been revised after completion of the update of the Geological Map of Wallonia (Carte géologique de Wallonie) at a scale of 1/25,000 and recent stratigraphic and sedimentological research.

A Bayesian classification model to reconstruct lifetime movement patterns of riverine fish using environmental tracers

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental tracers, including both elemental concentrations and isotope ratios, are widely used to reconstruct the movement patterns of animals throughout landscapes. The methodology involves creating a map that describes the distribution of the environmental tracer across the landscape, an isoscape and then matching the values of the same ...

The dental plate on bichir pectoral fins: A unique dermal skeletal element bearing individual odontodes with tooth‐like replacement

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Pectoral fins of bichirs encompass the so‐called dental plates – unique dermal skeletal elements with individual odontodes identical to the oral teeth. Abstract The dermal skeleton appeared early in vertebrate evolution in the form of mineralized skin denticles composed of tooth‐like units—odontodes.

Petrogenetic processes in the ultramafic, alkaline and carbonatitic magmatism in the Kola Alkaline Province: a review [PDF]

, 2005
Igneous rocks of the Devonian Kola Alkaline Carbonatite Province (KACP) in NW Russia and eastern Finland can be classified into four groups: (a) primitive mantle-derived silica-undersaturated silicate magmas; (b) evolved alkaline and nepheline syenites; (
