Meandering rivers have broadly predictable patterns of channel-planform evolution, providing an opportunity to assess floodplain OC budgets in relation to characteristic migration paces and floodplain ages. However, due to geomorphic complexities in individual meandering rivers, assessments of relationships between channel and OC dynamics have thus far remained limited. We illustrate evolving OC budgets in relation to channel migration in the Vermilion River (Ontario) located in the boreal forest of eastern North America. We combine photogrammetric analyses and dynamic time warping of channel centrelines with analysis of top-soil bulk density and OC. We found that variations of OC stock per unit surface area and soil development are modulated by meander migration through the development of typical boreal-forest vegetation successions. Our results support the hypothesis that meander migration controls soil development, forest age, and floodplain OC budgets. We anticipate our study to inform wider applications to rivers in different bioclimates - an approach that may in turn help carbon assessment in the context of changing climate or land use.\u0000","PeriodicalId":281618,"journal":{"name":"Geological Society, London, Special Publications","volume":" 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140687014","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the relationship between the topological development of the region and the onset of diversification is yet to be confirmed. Here, we apply Bayesian phylodynamic methods to a large phylogeny of angiosperm species from the Sino-Himalayas, to infer changes in their evolutionary rates through time. We find strong evidence for high diversification rates in the Paleocene, late Miocene and Pliocene, and for negative diversification rates in the Quaternary, driven by an increase in extinction rates. Our analyses suggest that changes in global palaeotemperatures are unlikely to be a driving force for these rate shifts. Instead, the collision of the Indian continent with Eurasia and coeval topographic change in the Sino-Himalayas, the Miocene Grassland Expansion, and the impact of Pleistocene glaciations on this altitudinally-variable region may have driven these rates. We also demonstrate the strong influence of change time choice on the shape of inferred piecewise-constant trajectories in Bayesian phylodynamics, and advocate for the use of prior information when making this decision.\u0000 \u0000 Supplementary material at\u0000 https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.c.7179254\u0000","PeriodicalId":281618,"journal":{"name":"Geological Society, London, Special Publications","volume":"25 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140694261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The geological highlights of Morocco's fascinating landscape include records of Lower Cretaceous Tethyan marginal and deep water clastic sequences in the Rif mountain chain (submarine fan systems of the Massylian and Mauretanian flysch units), as well as siliciclastic sedimentary sequences in subsiding coastal basins (TanTan Delta), which extend offshore along the Northwest African Atlantic margin. Vestiges of the Aptian to Turonian greenhouse climate, sea-level highstands and oceanic anoxic events are exceptionally well-preserved in Tethyan marginal and deep water sedimentary successions of the Rif, in Atlantic coastal basins and as transgressive pulses on the Moroccan Meseta, Sahara platform and High Atlas rift system. Furthermore, sedimentary expressions of the tectonic movements between the African and European plates associated with the end Cretaceous climate and sea-level changes are documented in the Rif mountain chain, in coastal basins, and in the massive marginal marine phosphorite sedimentation in the Middle and High Atlas, on the Moroccan Meseta and Sahara platform. In this review we provide a brief history of geological investigations and an overview of Cretaceous sedimentary archives, as well as a selection of research highlights and outstanding questions concerning the Cretaceous system in Morocco.

This perspectives paper summarizes developments in characterizing stress orientations and (relative) magnitudes, including new seismic and borehole methods, as well as progress in identifying the causes of stress variations.

It exhibits patterns of coastal extension, which contrasts with the first-order regional stress pattern that reflects compression aligned with the North Atlantic ridge-push. The regional stress field has been considered to emanate from the interaction of ridge push and glacial isostatic adjustment; while the local stress pattern can be additionally influenced by gravitational, topographic stresses, as well as the flexural effects of erosion and sediment deposition.\u0000 We employ finite element numerical models at a crustal scale to study the 3D stress field, using existing geometric constraints from previous geophysical studies. Internal body forces, induced by variations in density, topography or Moho depth, already yield significant deviatoric stresses. In the models tested, these can strongly influence the near-surface stress regime, in particular for the continental margin setting we are investigating.\u0000 In addition, redistribution of rock mass, which occurred mainly under Pleistocene glaciation, can modify the stress field significantly on a semi-regional scale. We consider this process to be the main driver for the coastal extension, in particular in areas where erosion has been high.\u0000 The northern Atlantic coast of Norway is an area of neotectonic activity and anomalous patterns in seismicity and land uplift. This study aims to improve our understanding of the present-day stress regime in this area. In addition, our study sheds light on the importance of stresses due to redistribution of sediments, a stress driver that is often neglected in stress studies.
