Evaluation of Paleo-climate for the Boise Area, Idaho, from the last Glacial Maximum to the Present Based on delta 2H and delta 18O Groundwater Composition
<p>There are four distinguishable groundwater systems in the Boise area, Idaho, U.S.A., identified as modern batholith, thermal batholith, Boise frontal fault, and Nampa-Caldwell systems (Figure 1). Modern batholith and thermal batholith groundwaters are located in Tertiary to Cretaceous aged …

Seasonal rainfall regime modulates genetic variation in the moss Pseudocrossidium crinitum
… variation, resulting from Pliocene-Pleistocene climate shifts have been largely documented for species from Europe. However, little is known from Africa and especially South Africa, where climate shifts have often been invoked to explain the amazingly high diversity of the Cape Floristic Region. …

High resolution sequence stratigraphy of late Mississippian carbonates in the Appalachian Basin
The late Mississippian carbonates in the Appalachian Basin, U.S.A., were deposited on a huge, south-facing ramp during long-term Mississippian transgression that formed the Mississippian supersequence. The St. Louis- to Glen Dean interval consists of up to twelve fourth-order depositional sequences …
