#5. Information from PEPS

(1) Featured Articles
We will introduce the featured articles selected by the editor-in-chief
from the papers published in the past every month.

@ Nien-Sheng Hsu et al.: Identification of hydrogeological evolution
using hydrogeology-seismology analysis of groundwater head fluctuation
related to the 1999 MW = 7.5 Chi-Chi earthquake.
https://doi.org/10.1186/s40645-020-00346-y
This study established the stochastic experimental optimization model
for identifying the change in the groundwater head under the leaking/
injecting effect caused by earthquakes. The authors applied this model
to the Chi-Chi earthquake occurred in Taiwan in 1999. They identified
the change due to the earthquake in some regions caused by crustal
compression and permeability change.

@ Oguchi, C.T., Yu, S.: A review of theoretical salt weathering
studies for stone heritage.
https://doi.org/10.1186/s40645-021-00414-x
Salt weathering of natural rocks and building stones is comprehensively
reviewed, with theoretical approaches to the most cited mechanisms
of salt weathering, including crystallization, hydration and thermal
expansion of crystalline salts.

@ Dyuti Prakash Sarkar et al.: Carbonate clumped isotope thermometry
of fault rocks and its possibilities: tectonic implications from
calcites within Himalayan Frontal Fold-Thrust Belt.
https://doi.org/10.1186/s40645-021-00435-6
The authors demonstrated the applicability of the carbonate clumped
isotope thermometer in low-grade carbonate-bearing fault rocks from
the Himalayan frontal wedge (northwest India). Coalescing carbonate
clumped isotope thermometry and calcite e-twin morphology allowed
them to constrain the temperature and depth of formation of the two
main thrusts of the Himalayan frontal wedge.

(2). Latest Articles
The following articles were published. You can download and read
interesting articles from the PEPS web site at:

transition at ~ 36 Ma in southeastern Tibetan Plateau.

@Tahar Hammouda et al.: The message of oldhamites from enstatite
chondrites.
https://doi.org/10.1186/s40645-022-00471-w

@Betelhem Mekonnen et al.: Climate, vegetation and fire history during
the past 18,000 years, recorded in high altitude lacustrine sediments
on the Sanetti Plateau, Bale Mountains (Ethiopia).
