The Atlantic coast of NW Spain, where shingle beaches appear today, has suffered an important mobilization of dunes from a sea level about −120 m (bpsl), 20 ky ago. This aeolization caused the collapse of coastal/fluvial ecosystems (as forests) until the Late Holocene.

Four‐Centre, Multielectron Bonding in Rare‐Earth Germole Sandwich Complexes
Stepwise one‐ and two‐electron reduction of the dimeric germole‐ligated sandwich complexes [(η5‐CpGe)M(η5‐Cpttt)]2 (M = Y, Gd, Dy) produces the isostructural complex anions [{(η5‐CpGe)M(η5‐Cpttt)}2]− and [{(η5‐CpGe)M(η5‐Cpttt)}2]2−, respectively. The additional electrons populate bonding molecular orbitals extending across the {M2Ge2} rings, resulting ...

The malleability of uranium: manipulating the charge-density wave in epitaxial films [PDF]
We report x-ray synchrotron experiments on epitaxial films of uranium, deposited on niobium and tungsten seed layers. Despite similar lattice parameters for these refractory metals, the uranium epitaxial arrangements are different and the strains propagated along the a-axis of the uranium layers are of opposite sign.

The local health impacts of natural resource booms
Abstract This paper uses novel micro‐data on natural resources and administrative health data in Brazil to study how economic booms in minerals affect health at birth. By implementing a reduced‐form estimation of shift‐share research designs, the identification strategy relies on the exogeneity of global commodity prices to municipality‐specific health

Ultraslow Wave Nuclear Burning of Uranium-Plutonium Fissile Medium on Epithermal Neutrons [PDF]
For a fissile medium, originally consisting of uranium-238, the investigation of fulfillment of the wave burning criterion in a wide range of neutron energies is conducted for the first time, and a possibility of wave nuclear burning not only in the region of fast neutrons, but also for cold, epithermal and resonance ones is discovered for the first ...

Nanohybrid of Silver‐MXene: A Promising Sorbent for Iodine Gas Capture from Nuclear Waste
Silver‐MXene (Ag‐Ti3C2Tx) nanohybrids effectively captured iodine gas at 150 °C, with Ag nanoparticles loaded onto MXene via silver nitrate reduction. Upon exposure to iodine gas, silver iodide forms, confirming successful adsorption. Ag‐Ti3C2Tx shows superior iodine uptake (946 mg g−1) compared to conventional sorbents, demonstrating its potential as ...
