Abstract:
... Numerous submarine plateaus form highstanding bathymetric highs at continent to ocean transitions. Due to their proximity to continents, they have been frequently labelled “marginal plateaus”, although this term has not been clearly defined or associated with a specific geology or geodynamic process. Until now, these elevations have been interpreted as submerged thinned continental fragments detac ...

Abstract:
... The Las Cañadas caldera is one of the best exposed volcanic calderas in the world and one of the few known evolved alkaline volcanoes. It truncates the pre-Teide-Pico Viejo central volcanic edifice, the Las Cañadas edifice, which started to take shape at the end of the formation of a large basaltic shield that forms the main part of island of Tenerife. Historically, the origin of the Las Cañadas c ...

Abstract:
... The Paleolithic period in central Italy is currently undergoing an extensive revision due to a significant chronological re-examination of many archaeological sites. Recently, several lower Palaeolithic sites 20 km NW of Rome previously dated within MIS 9 (335–300 ka) (i.e. La Polledrara di Cecanibbio, Torre in Pietra, Castel di Guido, Malagrotta and four sites along Via Aurelia) have been geochro ...

Abstract:
... The Acambay Graben, within the central part of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt, is one of the major sources of continental earthquakes in Mexico. To date, the activity and paleoseismological history of the axial faults of the graben are not well constrained. We provide morphological, structural and sedimentological evidence of the seismogenic nature of two of the axial structures, the Temascalcing ...

A review of key concepts useful for structuring research on social responses to volcanic eruptions among pre-industrial societies is presented as a framework for contextualising research on the Avellino volcanic event. Beginning with vulnerability, the importance for archaeological research of a temporal viewpoint that effectively incorporates studies of resilience, change, and adaptation is appra ...

Abstract:
... The Meso-Neoproterozoic period, sometimes referred to as as the ‘boring billion’ or ‘Earth's middle age’, spans the interval between the formation of the Columbia and Rodina supercontinents. It is regarded as a stable era of the Earth. However, from a global perspective, there are many intensive events of mafic volcanism, dyke intrusions and formation of rift basins recorded in different cratons d ...

The horizon has yielded numerous remains of rhino-size dicynodonts and other reptiles. However, the depositional age of the bone-bearing horizon is still controversial and proposed ages range from the early Norian to early Rhae ...

Abstract:
... Different lines of evidence suggest that the main trigger mechanism for the end-Triassic mass extinction was the release of volcanic and thermogenic gases during the emplacement of the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (CAMP). However, the short duration of the biotic and environmental crisis and the magmatic activity hinders precise control on the relative timing between these events, especially ...

Abstract:
... The very largest glacier outburst floods have been termed ‘megafloods’ given their volume and peak discharge. That definition might be revised because those floods have become understood due to their distinctive and pervasive landscape impacts. At least three floods in Iceland can be categorized as megafloods since they produced impressive bedrock canyons and giant fluvially-transported boulders. ...

Still, to characterize and measure wood elements in the field, a large investment in terms of time and cost is normally required. These activities are often carried out in complex and potentially dangerous environments. In this contex ...

Oceanic environments and biotas were in a state of near-continuous perturbation during the Early Triassic, the ~5-million-year interval following the latest Permian mass extinction (LPME), but the underlying cause(s) remain uncertain. The role of episodic volcanic or intrusive magmatic activity in triggering global-scale perturbations during this interval is suspected but has not been strongly evi ...
