Published in 2017 at "Tectonics"

DOI: 10.1002/2017tc004571

Abstract: In the Central Mediterranean the Africa-Eurasia convergence led to the development of complex orogenic systems and backarc basins. Throughout Pliocene-Quaternary times the Southern Apennines accretionary prism migrated towards the Apulia foreland and, contemporaneously, the Tyrrhenian… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of Quaternary Science"

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.2966

Abstract: Diversified deep-water corals and associated communities occur in early Pleistocene (early Calabrian; ∼1.7–1.6 Ma) calcareous crusts discovered on the south-western coast of Karpathos Island (eastern Greece). Apart from abundant and conspicuous solitary and colonial corals… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Quaternary Science"

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.3414

Abstract: The Middle Pleistocene archaeological record of the southern Levant has proven key to understanding human evolution and intercontinental faunal biogeography. Knowledge of archaeological sites of that period in the southern Levant is biased, with most… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Journal of Quaternary Science"

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.3727

Abstract: Middle to Late Pleistocene glacial – interglacial cycles appear to closely follow Milankovich cyclicity. This cyclicity has been observed to exert a discernible influence on both marine and terrestrial environments (EPICA community members, 2004; Lisiecki… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of Mammalian Evolution"

DOI: 10.1007/s10914-017-9385-x

Abstract: Felidae is represented in South America by approximately ten species, belonging to three main phylogenetic lineages: the Ocelot lineage, the Puma lineage, and the Panthera lineage. Pumas (Puma concolor) and jaguarundis (Puma yagouaroundi), together with… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Arabian Journal of Geosciences"

DOI: 10.1007/s12517-018-4101-6

Abstract: Numerical modeling of groundwater flow and particle tracking have been applied to assess whether deep pumping in a part of western Bengal Basin will transport arsenic (As) from the shallow paleo-channel (SPC) Holocene aquifer to… read more here.
