Abstract:
The Villány Hills in SW Hungary have the richest archive of Pliocene–Quaternary vertebrate faunas in the Pannonian Basin, mostly in karstic cavities. Here we present three new sites that extend the list of Pleistocene vertebrate locations for the area and add information to the evolution history of the region. In the northern part of the Siklós quarry, bone breccia was found coming from fissures in Jurassic or Cretaceous limestones. Its lithofacies and fossil content are similar to those of other well-known Plio-Pleistocene karst infills of the region. As it contained mostly snake vertebrae, i

Abstract:
The Igue du Gral, as a largely vertical cavity, has functioned as a natural trap during several periods, and the distribution of the filling is linked to the opening and to the closing of entrance vents over time. The prolonged periods when it was closed allowed the good conservation of paleontological material, while the episodic karst functioning of the cavity was determined by the morpho-dynamic and climatic factors, both on the surface of the plateau and underground. The alternation of overture and closure controls the conditions of deposition, alteration, or degradation, particularly when

Abstract In Mediterranean karsts, the Messinian salinity crisis induced first a deepening of the karst systems, then a flooding after the Pliocene transgression, and finally a reorganization of the drains after this base level rise. This reorganization mainly corresponds to the development of phreatic lifts: the chimney-shafts and the vauclusian springs. Such a per ascensum speleogenesis appears with a base level rise, which is caused by eustatism, by fluvial aggradation or valley infilling, or by continental subsidence. Consequently, we explain the origin of most of the deep phreatic cave sys

AbstractProterozoic limestones at several localities in southwestern Spitsbergen contain karst-related features (layered clastic infillings, collapse breccias, deeply weathered depressions) which overprint the Caledonian deformational fabric in the rocks.

Recognition of these karst features may shed light on depositional and tectonic events in post-Caledonian Spitsbergen.

Abstract:
The Mesoproterozoic Dismal Lakes Group, arctic Canada, contains a relatively thin, yet regionally extensive stromatolitic reef complex that developed subtidally during a major transgression, shoaled to sea level, and was overlain by intertidal to supratidal carbonate and evaporite strata. The September Lake reef complex exhibits a complex internal architecture that records the interaction between stromatolite growth and changes in accommodation space derived from both higher order (4th- or 5th-order, parasequence-scale) changes in sea level and the variable bathymetry of the sea floor.

AbstractThe extreme rareness of Sardinian fossil sites older than Middle and Late Pleistocene makes the Monte Tuttavista karst complex (E Sardinia, Italy) very important. Remarkable lagomorph material, recovered from several fissure infillings of Monte Tuttavista referable to the Capo Figari/Orosei 1 and Orosei 2 faunal sub-complexes (early Pleistocene, ~2.1/1.9–1.1 Ma), allowed us to describe a new endemic insular leporid, Sardolagus obscurus n. gen. n. sp. The new taxon is characterized by a peculiar combination of an advanced p3 (Lepus-type) and a primitive P2 lacking deep flexa. The origin

Abstract:
The most important findings of the study of sandstone rockshelter and their infillings can be summarised as follows: 1. Genesis of rockshelters: The race of rockshelter formation under Holocene climatic conditions is low, because Mesolithic artefacts are often found in undisturbed layer 2-15 cm from the sandstone wall, thus che shape of many rockshelters has not changed much during last at least 9000 radiocarbon years. The destructive action of frost during ice ages seems to be responsible for the origin of majority rockshelters. The reservoir of capillary water is located either in more perme

The accumulation primarily consists of sediment washed in from the slope through gravitational processes and surface dynamics. The coarse fraction derives from weathering of the cave’s limestone bedrock. Tectonic activity and structural instability caused the erosional retreat of the scarp face, explaining

Of all the remaining natural habitats of Benghazi’s urban area (NE Libya), perhaps the most threatened are its karst lakes and coastal salt marshes (locally known as Sebkha). Juliana Lake stands out as one example of a fragile ecosystem that is steadily shrinking and exposed to dredging, infilling and, consequently, possible damage to its aquatic organisms, and the inevitable loss of its renowned biodiversity.

AbstractThe combined sedimentological and palaeoecological analysis of charophyte-rich carbonate microfacies is proven to be a useful methodology for the palaeoenvironmental reconstruction of continental settings. However, the integration of these charophyte assemblages with geochemical proxies has not been explored, yet. In the present work, the charophyte-rich muddy carbonates of the Barremian La Pedrera de Meià Konservat-Lagerstätte (Southern Pyrenees, Spain) were studied from a taxonomic, taphonomic, and palaeoecological viewpoint, and the results were later integrated with previously publ

AbstractPaleokarst and paleokarst aquifers are not as well-documented as shallow karst, and studies of pores and pore networks are rare. Paleokarst lacks the open conduits typical of karst due to compaction, infilling, and diagenetic recrystallization by deep burial, so groundwater movement is through matrix porosity. In this case study, porosity networks in two saline aquifers in carbonate paleokarst of the Silurian Guelph Formation and Salina A-1 Carbonate Unit in southern Ontario (Canada) have been studied in drill cores at microscopic to macroscopic scales, utilizing medical computed tomog

Abstract The origin of Quaternary dolomites in continental environments (e.g. karst and lakes) is barely constrained compared to marine dolomites in sedimentary records. Here we present a study of dolomite and aragonite formations infilling young fractures of the ‘Erzberg’ iron ore deposit, Austria, under continental-meteoric and low temperature conditions. Two dolomite generations formed shortly after the Last Glacial Maximum (~20 kyr BP): dolomite spheroids and matrix dolomite. Clumped isotope measurements and U/Th disequilibrium ages reveal formation temperatures of 0–3 °C (±6 °C) and 3–20

Pickering et al. (Nature 2018;565:226–229) utilised calcium carbonate flowstone deposits (i.e. speleothems) from eight Pliocene and Pleistocene South African Cradle of Humankind cave sites to propose that biases were created within the fossil record due to absent clastic sedimentation phases during wet periods, when caves were closed and only speleothems accumulated. Such a scenario has significant implications for our understanding of variability in hominin mobility, resource exploitation, functional repertoires and interactions with competitors in changing environmental and ecological contex
