in an attempt to reconstruct the paleoenvironments of deposition for the middle jurassic baghamshah formation, samples collected from six outcrop sections along the shotori swell were subjected to detailed geochemical analyses. bulk geochemical and biological marker data indicate a logical trend of the variation of organic input, salinity, and oxicity within baghamshah paleoenvironments across ...

Abstract During the middle Miocene, forearc alkaline magmatism occurred in Outer Zone of Southwest Japan and northern Ryukyu Arc, resulting formation basaltic rocks with ocean island basalt (OIB)-like chemical signatures. In contrast, subduction-related was present central Arc. However, southwestern margin poorly constrained We examined two dikes Chichibu accretionary complex Amami-Oshima Islan...

Recent shifts in water quality and food web characteristics driven by anthropogenic impacts on the Laurentian Great Lakes warranted an examination of pelagic primary producers as tracers of environmental change. The distributions of the 263 common phytoplankton taxa were related to water quality variables to determine taxon-specific responses that may be useful in indicator models. A detailed c...

The regularized expectation maximization (RegEM) method has been used in recent studies to derive climate field reconstructions of Northern Hemisphere temperatures during the last millennium. Original pseudoproxy experiments that tested RegEM [with ridge regression regularization (RegEM-Ridge)] standardized the input data in a way that improved the performance of the reconstruction method, but ...

Historical tropical cyclone (TC) and storm surge records are often too limited to quantify the risk to local populations. Paleohurricane sediment records uncover long-term TC activity, but interpreting these records can be difficult and can introduce significant uncertainties. Here we compare and combine climatological-hydrodynamic modeling (including a method to account for storm size uncertai...
