Playa systems are driven by evaporation processes, yet the mechanisms by which evaporation occurs through playa salt crusts are still poorly understood. In this study we examine playa evaporation as it relates to land ...

The environment of the Andean Puna Plateau is mostly characterized by the dominance of evaporative processes due to aridity. Since the intermittent runoff lacks the morphodynamic competence to generate the present day ...

Microbial carbonates provide an invaluable tool to understand biogeochemical processes in aqueous systems, especially in lacustrine and marine environments. Lakes are strongly sensitive to climatically driven environmental ...

Lake deposystems are commonly associated with retroarc mountain belts in the geological record. These deposystems are poorly characterized in modern retroarcs, placing limits on our ability to interpret environmental signals ...

Reconciling interpretations of geochemical, sedimentologic, and stratigraphic observations is a common challenge with many datasets, especially those from paleolake systems. The Triassic Cerro de las Cabras and Cerro Puntudo ...

The objective of this study was to identify and describe the nesting habitat of Podocnemis sextuberculata at Erepecu Lake, Trombetas River Biological Reserve, (REBIO-Trombetas; Pará-Brazil). Initially, the main features ...

The shoreline carbonate lagoon deposits of the Yacoraite Formation in the Maimará locality, Quebrada de Humahuaca (Jujuy, northwestern Argentina) reveal invertebrate and vertebrate trace fossils that are distributed in two ...
