Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Basement Geometry and Cover‐Basement Relationships in the Central‐Western Jaca‐Pamplona Basin (Southern Pyrenees): Along‐Strike Variations and Role of Structural Inheritance

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract This study presents a detailed, geometrical characterization of the central‐western domain of the Jaca‐Pamplona Basin based on a combined interpretation of seismic and surface data and the construction of four serial cross‐sections. For the studied portion of the basin, our results highlight that the basement is notably folded and faulted and ...

Early Upper Palaeolithic occupation at Gelimgoush cave, Kermanshah; West-Central Zagros mountains of Iran

, 2021
The timing and dispersal routes of Homo sapiens (H. sapiens) into the Iranian Plateau have always been a matter of debate in the recent years. Current studies on the Upper Palaeolithic period of the Zagros mountains demonstrated the later colonisation of

What can lithics tell us about food production during the transition to farming? Exploring harvesting practices and cultural changes during the neolithic in Southwest Asia: a view from Qminas (north‐western Syria)

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S3, Page S126-S153, June 2026.
Abstract This study examines the continuity and change in harvesting practices between the Late Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B (LPPNB) and the Early Pottery Neolithic at Qminas, north‐western Levant, through a traceological analysis of flint sickles. By combining qualitative traceological analysis with quantitative functional approaches, we demonstrate that ...

From The Zagros Mountains

, 2019
Some broad inferences have been drawn by the authors : “In South Asia, our dataset provides insight into the sources of Ancestral North Indians … However, it can be modelled as a mix of ancestry related to both early farmers of western Iran and to people of the Bronze Age Eurasian steppe.” [Lazaridis et al, 2016 : Genomic insights into the origin of ...

The Geographical Distribution of Lactose Tolerance‐Associated Alleles 13910*T and 13915*G Is Strongly Linked to Male Founder Events in Eurasia

American Journal of Human Biology, Volume 38, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Lactose tolerance (lactase persistence) represents a very progressive human adaptation, the origins of which remain incompletely understood. This study aims to examine the geographical distribution of the two alleles associated with lactose tolerance in Eurasia (13910*T and 13915*G) in relation to the main Y haplogroups and autosomal ancestry ...

Pre-pottery clay innovation in the Zagros foothills [PDF]

, 2019
Neolithic material engagements transformed the ways in which communities interacted with the physical world and one another. Based on evidence from the flanks of the Zagros Mountains, in western Iran and north‐eastern Iraq, Robert Braidwood initially ...

Phylogenetic Diversity and Community Assembly of Vascular Plants Along Environmental Gradients in the Western Pamir–Alay: A Case Study From Surkhandarya Province, Southern Uzbekistan

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Using extensive field, herbarium, and database records, we examine patterns of species richness, phylogenetic diversity, and community assembly along elevational and climatic gradients in an understudied region of Central Asia. ABSTRACT Biodiversity plays a fundamental role in ecosystem structure, function, and stability, but its response to ...
