Ancylotherium pentelicum (Mammalia, Chalicotheriidae) from the late Miocene of Kerassia (Greece) and remarks on its intraspecific variability
; ; ; ; ; (Palaeobiodiversity and Palaeoenvironments, 2021-07-13)
The first detailed description of Ancylotherium pentelicum (Gaudry and Lartet, 1856) from the late Miocene (Turolian) of Kerassia (Greece) is provided based on three metapodial elements. Potential intraspecific variability ... -
Characterization of Late Cretaceous to Miocene source rocks in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea: An integrated numerical approach of stratigraphic forward modelling and petroleum system modelling
; ; ; ; ; (Basin Research, 2020)
Stratigraphic forward modelling was used to simulate the deposition of Upper Cretaceous, Eocene and Oligo-Miocene source rocks in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea and, thus, obtain a process-based 3D prediction of the quantity ... -
Climate Change and Weather Extremes in the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East
; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; (Reviews of Geophysics, 2022-07-11)
Observation‐based and modeling studies have identified the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East (EMME) region as a prominent climate change hotspot. While several initiatives have addressed the impacts of climate change ... -
Early Holocene aeolian sediments in southwestern Crete−preliminary results
; ; ; ; (Mediterranean Geoscience Reviews, 2021-07-27)
The soilscapes along the southern and western coast of Crete (Greece) are dominated by coarse-grained reddish-brown slope sediments whose natural (pre-anthropogenic) configuration and properties are difficult to reconstruct ... -
On the geoarchaeology of Limyra (SW Anatolia)—new insights into the famous Lycian city and its environs
; ; ; ; (Geoarchaeology, 2020)
Geoarchives in ancient settlement sites and their environs bear valuable information about Holocene landscape evolution and human–environment interactions. During the last six millennia, sea-level and coastline changes ... -
Twenty-First-Century Changes in the Eastern Mediterranean Etesians and Associated Midlatitude Atmospheric Circulation
; ; Zanis, Prodromos; ; (Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2019)
The Etesians are the dominant synoptically driven winds observed in the Eastern Mediterranean, usually from late spring to late summer. Due to the complex topography, the Etesians can be very strong and pose significant ... -
Weather regimes and analogues downscaling of seasonal precipitation for the 21st century: A case study over Israel
; Kunin, Pavel; Alpert, Pinhas; Harpaz, Tzvi; ; (International Journal of Climatology, 2019)
Abstract Global climate models provide only partial information on local-scale phenomenon, such as precipitation, primarily due to their coarse resolution. In this study, statistical downscaling algorithms, based on both ...
