Chloride-bearing deposits on Mars record high-elevation lakes during the waning stages of Mars' wet era (mid-Noachian to late Hesperian). The water source pathways, seasonality, salinity, depth, lifetime, and paleoclimatic drivers of... more
Based on the data from scholars papers but principally in (1), I've made a GIS data set for the late Pleistocene lake cycles on the southern Bolivian Altiplano. I've prepared three different data sets: two to work with, and another... more
For the first time, the study of the fossil record present in laminated bituminous dolostones from the San Chils locality, lower Miocene in age (ca. 19 Ma), located at the Ribesalbes-Alcora Basin, is addressed. The identification of 11... more
Liquid water was flowing on the surface of Mars in the past, leaving behind a wide range of geomorphic features. The ancient major Martian water fluxes vanished about 3.5 Ga. Meteoritic impacts, wind-erosion, gravity-related phenomena,... more
ABSTRACTThe Old Copper Complex (OCC) refers to the production of heavy copper-tool technology by Archaic Native American societies in the Lake Superior region. To better define the timing of the OCC, we evaluated 53 (eight new and 45... more

The Arabian Peninsula is a key region for understanding climate change and human occupation history in a marginal environment. The Mundafan paleolake is situated in the Empty Quarter of Saudi Arabia. Here we report the first discoveries... more
