TytułLong‐distance fluid migration defines the diagenetic history of unique Ediacaran sediments in the East European Craton
CzasopismoBasin Research, 2020; 00: 1– 24.
DOIdoi.org/10.1111/bre.12485

The diagenetic history of the Ediacaran sedimentary rocks in the East European Craton (EEC) over the area extending from Arkhangelsk (Russia) in the north to Podolia (Ukraine) in the south was revealed by means of the XRD characterization and K–Ar dating of clay fractions, mudstone porosity measurements and organic geochemistry investigations.

TytułThe structural versus textural control on the methane sorption capacity of clay minerals
CzasopismoInternational Journal of Coal Geology, Volume 224
DOIdoi.org/10.1007/s00531-019-01814-7

 

Highlights

•High-pressure CH4 adsorption was studied using pure illites and smectites.

•CH4 adsorption occurs in nitrogen-accessible micropore volume.

•CH4 adsorption sites are located mainly outside of the interlayer galleries.

•Organic and divalent cations allow limited adsorption in the interlayers.

•Textural factors are the main control on CH4 adsorption capacity in clay minerals.

TytułLate Palaeozoic strike‑slip tectonics versus oroclinal bending at the SW outskirts of Baltica: case of the Variscan belt’s eastern end in Poland
CzasopismoInternational Journal of Earth Sciences (2020) 109:1133–1160
DOIdoi.org/10.1007/s00531-019-01814-7

Geophysical and geological data from the eastern sector of the Central European Variscan belt are presented and reviewed in the regional tectonic context. Matched filtering of isostatic gravity, guided by results of spectral analysis, along with other derivatives of gravity and magnetic fields reveal a dominant WNW–ESE-trending pre-Permian structural grain in the external zones of the Variscan belt in Poland.

TytułAncestors of domestic cats in Neolithic Central Europe: Isotopic evidence of a synanthropic diet
CzasopismoProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Jul 2020, 201918884
DOIdoi.org/10.1073/pnas.1918884117

Most of today’s domesticates began as farm animals, but cat domestication took a different path. Cats became commensal of humans somewhere in the Fertile Crescent, attracted to early farmers’ settlements by rodent pests. Cat remains from Poland dated to 4,200 to 2,300 y BCE are currently the earliest evidence for the migration of the Near Eastern wildcat to Central Europe. Tracking the possible synanthropic origin of that migration, we used stable isotopes to investigate the paleodiet. We found that the ecological balance was already changed due to the expansion of Neolithic farmlands. We conclude that among the Late Neolithic Near Eastern wildcats from Poland were free-living individuals, who preyed on rodent pests and shared ecological niches with native European wildcats.

TytułChlorine Isotope Composition of Apatite from the >3.7 Ga Isua Supracrustal Belt, SW Greenland
CzasopismoMinerals 2020; 10(1):27.
DOIdoi.org/10.3390/min10010027

The study of the oldest surviving rock suites is crucial for understanding the processes that shaped the early Earth and formed an environment suitable for life. The metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks of the early Archean Isua supracrustal belt contain abundant apatite, the geochemical signatures of which may help decipher ancient environmental conditions.

Tytuł Seismic Characteristics and Development of the Upper Jurassic Carbonate Buildups from the Miechów Trough (Southern Poland)
CzasopismoGeosciences 2020, 10(6), 239
DOIdoi.org/10.3390/geosciences10060239

The presented study is devoted to the subsurface Upper Jurassic carbonate buildups and surrounding stratified inter-buildup deposits in the hitherto less recognized area, in comparison with other parts of the northern Tethyan shelf in Poland and Europe. The study area is located within the present-day Miechów Trough, almost entirely covered by thick Cretaceous and younger deposits.

TytułMarine transgression(s) to evaporite basin: The case of middle Miocene (Badenian) gypsum in the Central Paratethys, SE Poland
CzasopismoJournal of Palaeogeography 9, 16 (2020)
DOIdoi.org/10.1186/s42501-020-00062-0

The middle Miocene Badenian evaporite basin of the Carpathian Foredeep Basin was a saline lake, separated by a barrier from the sea and supplied with seawater seeping through the barrier or overflowing it occasionally in the form of short-lived marine transgressions. Such transgressions could leave behind marine microfossils in marly clay intercalations.

TytułPedogenic siderites fossilizing Ediacaran soil microorganisms on the Baltica paleocontinent
CzasopismoGeology (2020) 48 (1): 62–66.
DOIdoi.org/10.1130/G46746.1

Ediacaran siderite-bearing sedimentary rocks from the western part of the East European craton exhibit features typical of redoximorphic paleosols, including pedogenic siderite (e.g., sphaerosiderite) with uniform and negative δ18O and highly variable δ13C values. The siderite precipitated in water-logged soils in a hot and humid climate, and represents a rare example of pedogenic siderite formed before the rise of vascular plants.

TytułArchaean phosphates: a case study of transformation processes in apatite from the Barberton greenstone belt
CzasopismoContributions to Mineralogy and Petrology 174, 25 (2019)
DOIhttps://doi.org/10.1007/s00410-019-1560-z

Multiple tools have been used to determine the sensitivity of phosphates from the early Archaean Barberton greenstone belt to transformation. The assessment of the degree of transformation is crucial for verifying data about the parameters of the paleo-environment.

TytułAtmospheric circulation and the differentiation of precipitation sources during the Holocene inferred from five stalagmite records from Demänová Cave System (Central Europe)
CzasopismoThe Holocene, Volume: 30 issue: 6, page(s): 834-846
DOIdoi.org/10.1177/0959683620902224

Five stalagmites from the Demänová Cave System (DCS, Western Carpathians, Slovakia), spanning the period from 13,000 to 500 a BP, were analyzed for their oxygen and carbon stable isotopic composition of the calcite. The isotopic data obtained from several stalagmites located in one cave system allow us to separate the changes of regional/global importance from the local changes. Oxygen isotope ratios point to dynamic changes in the environment at the onset of the Holocene.

TytułPost-Variscan thermal history of the Intra-Sudetic Basin (Sudetes, Bohemian Massif) based on apatite fission track analysis
CzasopismoInternational Journal of Earth Sciences, 2019, Volume 108, Number 8, Page 2561
DOIdoi.org/10.1007/s00531-019-01777-9

The Intra-Sudetic Basin, a ~ 12 km deep Variscan intramontane basin, has the best preserved post-orogenic sedimentary record available at the NE margin of the Bohemian Massif. Apatite fission track (AFT) analyses have been performed on 16 sedimentary and volcanic samples of Carboniferous to Cretaceous age from the Intra-Sudetic Basin to improve understanding of the post-Variscan thermal evolution.

TytułHirnantian icebergs in the subtropical shelf of Baltica: Evidence from sedimentology and detrital zircon provenance
CzasopismoGeology (2019) 47 (3): 284–288.
DOIdoi.org/10.1130/G45777.1

The widespread glaciomarine record of the Hirnantian (end-Ordovician) glaciation is confined to peri-Gondwanan terranes in Variscan Europe and, hence, is of little use for assessing the equatorward range of icebergs that calved from the North Gondwana ice sheet into the Rheic Ocean. New sedimentological investigations aided by laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry detrital zircon dating of Hirnantian diamictites from the East European craton in Poland demonstrate that the iceberg pathways extended to subtropical Baltica.
