Quantitative wood anatomy (QWA) provides a morphometric alternative. We compared X-ray and QWA-derived density measurements from recent and five-millennia-old relict wood from Siberia's Yamal region. We measured bulk density and holo-cellulose-to-wood ratio and employed spectroscopic analyses to identify chemical factors affecting density loss. The findings indicate likely abiotic degradation in relict wood, evidenced by significantly lower bulk density, holo-cellulose content, and MXD than recent samples, while anatomical density and maximum radial cell wall thickness appeared unchanged. MXD-based estimates suggested 1.7°C colder June-August (JJA) temperatures 4,700 years ago, while QWA-based estimates indicated 0.4°C warmer JJA temperatures than the 20th-century mean.

For example, the most common form of nitrogenase (the enzyme that mediates nitrogen fixation by prokaryotes) requires molybdenum and iron as structural components. It has been proposed, however, that ‘alternative nitrogenase’ enzymes may have been important under conditions of expanded euxinia and Mo drawdown that may have characterized parts of the Proterozoic oceans. Furthermore, it has been proposed that bioavailable nitrate was scarce in the Mesoproterozoic oceans, inhibiting the evolution of eukaryotes that lack the ability to fix their own nitrogen. To test these hypotheses, we examined nitrogen isotopes (δ<sup>15</sup>N) in black and grey shale of the ∼1.1 Ga Atar and El Mreiti groups, Taoudeni Basin, Mauritania as a proxy for nitrogen cycling in the Mesoproterozoic oceans. These strata were previously investigated for iron speciation and trace metal content, and they record a period of substantial Mo drawdown in a redox-stratified epeiric sea. In the Atar and El Mreiti groups, both shallow epicratonic and deeper pericratonic environments record strongly positive δ<sup>15</sup>N values (median = +4.6‰), indicative of an aerobic nitrogen cycle characterized by nitrification and partial denitrification, and thus surface waters that were replete in bioavailable nitrate. Even in the most Mo-limited euxinic environments, positive δ<sup>15</sup>N values suggest nitrate-replete surface waters. These results are consistent with a large compilation of δ<sup>15</sup>N data from other Mesoproterozoic basins, which collectively do not support the presence of a metal-nitrogen co-limited biosphere in the Mesoproterozoic oceans. Instead, we suggest that nitrogen fixation likely proceeded via Mo-Fe-nitrogenase and nitrate was readily available in the oceans during much of the Mesoproterozoic, with phosphorus acting as the limiting macronutrient on the marine biosphere.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11481,"journal":{"name":"Earth and Planetary Science Letters","volume":"661 ","pages":"Article 119369"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143875055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Radon monitoring is widely recognized as an effective method for earthquake precursor detection. However, the underlying physical mechanisms responsible for these anomalies have not been investigated quantitatively. Thus, in this study, changes in radon concentration were systematically analyzed by integrating flow rates and water temperature data from the Banglazhang #1 hot spring in Yunnan, China, following the 1996 Lijiang Mw 7.0 earthquake and the 2004 Sumatra Mw 9.1 earthquake, both of which induced significant hydrological responses. Our analysis demonstrated that meteorological factors were not the primary drivers of radon concentration changes. The change in the mixing ratio from different depths of water was identified as the primary mechanism driving radon concentration changes following the Lijiang earthquake. Furthermore, the release of radon from particle movement, along with the change in the mixing ratio after the earthquake, might explain the co-seismic response following the Sumatra earthquake. The water–rock interaction surface area increased from about 7 × 10<sup>4</sup> m<sup>2</sup> to 1.85 × 10<sup>5</sup> m<sup>2</sup> following the Sumatra earthquake.

Model runs initialized with two independent reanalyses show significant and systematic differences in MJO circulation amplitude that emerge rapidly and persist over the 15-day forecast period. Additional analysis suggests the reason is due to differences in the initial atmospheric static stability. Specifically, the reanalysis that is initially less stable is associated with enhanced large-scale vertical motion and divergent winds throughout the forecast.

However, there are few examples where large pumice fragments are mentioned in distal fluvial deposits. In this work, the Miocene synorogenic deposits of the Northern Patagonian Foreland (Chichinales and El Palo Formations) were studied. The deposits of the latter unit include pumice fragments with diameters of up to 30 cm that were accumulated in a fluvial environment more than 200 km from the Andean volcanic arc. Although previous works mention the presence of pumice in this unit, an analysis of the origin, the transport and depositional processes of these fragments was not carried out. Based on the study of stratigraphic sections along the extra-Andean zone, it was determined that the sediments of the Lower Miocene (Chichinales Formation) were deposited in a low-to-medium energy fluvial environment with development of wide floodplains and palaeosol formation during stability periods. The Middle Miocene?—Lower Pliocene deposits (El Palo Formation) correspond to a moderate-to-high energy braided fluvial system with occasional high discharge periods. The pumice fragments present in this unit were derived from the reworking of primary pyroclastic deposits outcropping at the foot of the Andes, associated with important explosive volcanic activity during the Miocene. These fragments were transported and deposited by both dilute flows and sediment gravity flows with high concentrations of pumice. Petrographic analysis of El Palo Formation sandstones showed a provenance mostly related to the erosion of pyroclastic, arc-related deposits. The main source areas would have been the Andean arc and the North Patagonian Massif. A maximum depositional age of 14.6 ± 1 Ma was obtained in a sample from the El Palo Formation, which constitutes the first U–Pb dating of detrital zircons from this unit in the study area.
