Holocene Bythocytheridae (Ostracoda: Podocopida) from Southwestern Atlantic deep-sea sediments off Brazil. Part 1: tribes Bythocytherini Sars, 1926 and Jonesini Schornikov, 1981 by Cristianini Trescastro Bergue, Marie-Béatrice Forel, Geise de Santana dos Anjos-Zerfass, Simone Nunes Brandão

“…ABSTRACT The Bythocytheridae Sars, 1866 is one of the oldest families of cytheroidean Ostracoda, with a fossil record dating back to the Silurian. During the Cenozoic this family became one of the main constituents of the deep-sea ostracod faunas, with some taxa reaching wide geographic distribution. …”

Tectonic stress of the southeastern part of the Gorny Altai by @Marinin, Anton V., Sim, Lydia A.

“…The deviation from the submeridional direction of tectonic stress, which is general for the Gorny Altai, and the increased number of stress regimes of horizontal extension compared to other parts of the region are associated, in our opinion, with WSW regional dextral strike-slip structures and a change in the type of stress regime within the superimposed Cenozoic depressions. Such variations in the stress field characteristics are noted not only for paleostress inversion but also for the changes occurring as a result of the development of modern seismic processes and related earthquakes in this seismically active region of the Gorny Altai.…”

Convergent evolution of type I antifreeze proteins from four different progenitors in response to global cooling by Laurie A. Graham, Peter L. Davies

“…All four known instances of type I AFPs occurring in fishes are independent evolutionary events that occurred soon after the onset of Northern Hemisphere Cenozoic glaciation events. Collectively, these results provide a remarkable example of convergent evolution to one AFP type.…”

The Western Alpine arc: a review and new kinematic model by Brunsmann, Quentin, Rosenberg, Claudio Luca, Bellahsen, Nicolas

“…The radial pattern (${\approx }$180°) of collisional transport directions is difficult to explain, especially in the southern WNW–ESE to E–W striking arc segments. A mid-Cenozoic change, from NW- to W-directed indentation is often proposed, but poorly constrained. …”

Landslide hazard assessment of an urban agglomeration in central Guizhou Province based on an information value method and SVM, bagging, DNN algorithm by Junhua Luo, Zulun Zhao, Wei Li, Liang Huang, Weiquan Zhao

“…Abstract The urban agglomeration in central Guizhou is located in a crustal deformation area caused by tectonic uplift between the Mesozoic orogenic belt of East Asia and the Alpine-Tethys Cenozoic orogenic belt, with high mountains, steep slopes, fractured rock masses and a fragile ecological environment; this area is the most affected by landslides in Guizhou Province, China. …”

Some features of geological structure of the Shikotan Island (Lesser Kuril Arc)—A view from 'Space' by Evgeny P Terekhov, Anatoly V Mozherovsky

“…Together with the Notoro Volcano, they mark the rim of an interpreted caldera of a paleovolcano, which could have been the main unknown source of tuffaceous material for the Mesozoic-Cenozoic deposits of the Matakotanskaya, Malokuril'skaya, and Zelenovskaya Suites. …”

Geotouristic Coastal Itinerary in the South Coast of Paraíba (Northeast of Brazil) by Luciano Pereira, Arilde Alves

“…The South coast of the State of Paraíba belongs to the geomorphologic unit of Plains and Coastal Tablelands, having direct relation with ancient tectonic movements, generated during the drift of the South American and African Plates, added to Cenozoic tectonic events. This article proposes a geotouristic itinerary that includes seven places of geotouristic interest. …”

The Iriba alkaline basalts, an expression of mantle-derived Cretaceous magmatism of the Cameroon-Chad volcanic line along the Central Africa Rift System by Djerossem, Félix Nenadji, Mbassa, Benoît Joseph, Vanderhaeghe, Olivier,  Gregoire, Michel

“…These features, similar to basanites exposed in southern Cameroon, reflect the partial melting of a metasomatized subcontinental lithospheric root reworked during the formation of the Cenozoic Central Africa Rift System. We propose to define by Cameroon-Chad Volcanic Line this continental scale structure controlling the emplacement of alkaline magmas.…”

First in situ calcite U–Pb dating revealing the past episodes of the 2019 Le Teil Earthquake (France) by Gébelin, Aude, Matonti, Christophe, Larroque, Christophe, Carr, Patrick, Ampuero, Jean-Paul

“…In agreement with relative chronology data based on microstructural observations, our results allow us to define four main tectonic events: A first event from ~90 to 75 interpreted to reflect a thermal subsidence at the regional scale (Ardèche—South-East basin of France), a second event bracketed between ~60 to 50 Ma related to the N–S trending shortening of the South-East basin, a third tectonic event dated from ~40 to 37 Ma that we interpret to reflect the opening of the Gulf of Lion and European Cenozoic Rift System (ECRIS), and a fourth and final event at ~25 Ma that very likely represents a middle to late stage of the ECRIS. …”
