• Temperature-related body size change of marine benthic macroinvertebrates across the Early Toarcian Anoxic Event 

  Piazza, V; Ullmann, CV; Aberhan, M (Nature Research, 13 March 2020)

  The Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (TOAE, Early Jurassic, ~182 Ma ago) was characterised by severe environmental perturbations which led to habitat degradation and extinction of marine species. Warming-induced anoxia is ...

• Building rugged equipment for use in caves 

  Gibson, A (British Cave Research Association, 1 March 2020)

  In another of our 'Fundamentals' series, David Gibson describes the problems of building equipment for use in caves. Waterproofing is a big issue, but he also considers the choice of battery and some problems associated ...

• The origin(s) and geodynamic significance of Archaean ultramafic-mafic bodies in the mainland Lewisian Gneiss Complex, North Atlantic Craton 

  Guice, G; McDonald, I; Hughes, H; et al. (Geological Society, 9 March 2020)

  The geodynamic regime(s) that predominated during the Archaean remains controversial, with the plethora of competing models largely informed by felsic lithologies. Ultramafic-mafic rocks displaying distinctive geochemical ...

• The consequences of climate change in the Arctic and implications for natural resource utilisation 

  Schlatter, D; Hughes, H; Schenkel, R; et al. (SGA (Society for Geology Applied to Mineral Deposits), 27 February 2020)

  History of the Northwest Passage sea route, recent climate change, global warming and the opening of the Northwest Passage

• Microplastic ingestion by pelagic and demersal fish species from the Eastern Central Atlantic Ocean, off the Coast of Ghana 

  Adika, SA; Mahu, E; Crane, R; et al. (Elsevier BV, 22 February 2020)

  We present data on the occurrence of microplastics in fish from the Guinea current region off Ghana's Coast. Frequency of occurrence of microplastics in the fish species followed the order: Sardinella maderensis (41%) > ...
