Fig. 4 in The largest arthropod in Earth history: insights from newly discovered Arthropleura remains (Serpukhovian Stainmore Formation, Northumberland, England)

Fig. 4. Context of the specimen prior to extraction. (a) Slab A of the fossil (facing stratigraphically upwards). Note convex-down doming of the host sediment. Scale bar 20 cm. (b) Slab B of the fossil (facing stratigraphically downwards). (c) Fallen block in which the fossil was discovered in January 2018 (white circle), showing split in rock where fossil was exposed (white triangle). Black circle denotes position in cliff profile from where the block fell. Listric faults in hanging wall of Howick Fault are highlighted, showing hanging wall thickening of mudrock (HT), attesting to synsedimentary origin (red arrows indicate sense of fault movement). Scale bar 2 m. (d) View of the fallen block (white circle) and original position (black circle) in the context of the Howick Fault damage zone and master fault separating the Alston and Stainmore formations; HT is at same position as in part (c). Host bed is immediately adjacent to one of two synsedimentary (Mississippian) normal faults that were later reactivated as strike-slip faults during the latest Carboniferous to Permian emplacement of the Whin Sill dolerite intrusion (De Paola et al. 2005). This structural context attests to strain in the fossil-bearing sandstone bed prior to full lithification and may explain certain features of the fossil (see main text). Blue dashed line show approximate stratigraphic position of the Lickar Limestone, marking the onset of the late Serpukhovian (Cózar and Somerville 2021). Scale bar 5 m.

Fig. 2 in The largest arthropod in Earth history: insights from newly discovered Arthropleura remains (Serpukhovian Stainmore Formation, Northumberland, England)

Fig. 2. Interpreted sketch of the fossil, as preserved in slab A, while still intact in fallen block of host sandstone prior to excavation. The overlap pattern of the paratergites on the left indicates that this is the ventral site of the dorsal exoskeleton. The typical ornamentation of the dorsal site of Arthropleura tergites and paratergites is therefore not visible.

Data of Self-Weight Consolidation Process of Water-Saturated Deltas on Mars and Earth

Data of the paper "Self-Weight Consolidation Process of Water-Saturated Deltas on Mars and Earth". This dataset includes five tables. Table S1 is the original data of the measurements of the moisture content w0, Table S2 is the original data of the pycnometer test, which was conducted to obtain the specific gravity Gs of our samples, Table S3 is the original data of the consolidation experiments, Table S4 is the original data of the permeability experiments, and Table S5 is the martian global delta relief obtained by us based on MOLA data, which is used as the maximum thickness of a delta. Table S1. The original data of the measurements of the moisture content w0. The initial void ratio is calculated by equation (1).  A' is the inner area of the consolidation container. Table S2. The original data of the pycnometer test, which was conducted to obtain the specific gravity Gs of our samples. The specific gravity Gs can be derived from mdGwT /(mbw+md+mbws), where md is the samples’ dry mass, mbw is the total mass of the pycnometer and water, mbws is the total mass of the pycnometer, water and samples, and GwT is the specific gravity of pure water at T ℃. Table S3. The original data of consolidation experiments of our samples. The void ratio is calculated by equation (2). Table S4. The original data of permeability experiments of our samples. The hydraulic conductivity K was calculated by equations (3) and (4). The inner area of the consolidation container is 30 cm2, the cross-sectional area a' of the water pipe is 0.89286 cm2, and the seepage path length L equals the sample initial height h0 minus the accumulated height ΣΔhi. t1 and t2 are the first and the second test results of time-taken for water dropping from H1 to H2, respectively. t is the average of t1 and t2. T’ is the temperature during the experiments. Note: we only test the T’ of the third group and here we used the average of T’ (=12.5℃) to represent the temperature of all three parallel groups during the experiments. It’s acceptable because T’ varies slightly throughout the experiments, whose fluctuations hardly affect the order of magnitude of the hydraulic conductivity K. The seepage velocity v=Q/A’t, in which Q is the volume of water that seeps out of the samples. Table S5. The delta relief of a delta. The locations of martian deltas are based on the database of Wilson et al. (2021)

GPS time series of solid Earth deformation for the southern Antarctic Peninsula

This dataset contains vertical GPS time series observed from selected sites in the southern Antarctic Peninsula. The time series were processed using GAMIT-GLOBK software (Herring et al., 2016) in combination with a globally distributed network that includes all available data from the International GNSS Service (IGS), US POLENET-ANET and UKANET networks. The provided archive contains raw and corrected time series for the effect of elastic deformation-induced from the RACMO surface mass balance (SMB) model with a 5.5 km horizontal resolution (van Wessem et al. 2016). This data is used in the manuscript "GPS-observed elastic deformation due to surface mass balance variability in the Southern Antarctic Peninsula" to study how modelled elastic deformation due to SMB variation can explain vertical land motion observed derived from GPS signals.

Dataset of steady magnetospheric convection events in Earth's magnetosphere from 1997 to 2013

This dataset is a list of steady magnetospheric convection (SMC) events occurring in Earth's magnetosphere between 1997 and 2013.  The criteria and method of SMC selection are documented in the following two papers: Kissinger et al. (2011), "Steady magnetospheric convection and stream interfaces: Relationship over a solar cycle", JGR, doi:10.1029/2010JA015763. Kissinger et al. (2012), "Diversion of plasma due to high pressure in the inner magnetosphere during steady magnetospheric convection", JGR, doi:10.1029/2012JA017579. The filename "smc_list_1997_2013.csv" is a list of every SMC selected during this time period. This is a comma-separated file with two columns: the first column is the timestamp indicating the start of the SMC event, and the second column is the timestamp indicating the end of the SMC event.  The filename "smc_list_1997_2013_longerthan5hrs.csv" is a subset of the first list, filtered to only SMCs with a duration longer than 5 hours. The schema of this file matches the first one, with an additional third column showing the duration of the SMC in hours.

Analyses of the redlegged earth mite mitogenome (Halotydeus destructor: Tucker)

Data and analyses for the paper: Thia et al. (accepted) The mitogenome of Halotydeus destructor (Tucker) and its relationships with other trombidiform mites as inferred from nucleotide sequences and gene arrangements. Ecology and Evolution. In this work, Thia et al. described the first complete mitogenomic sequence of the redlegged earth mite (RLEM). Phylogenetic analyses were used to contextualise the evolutionary relationships of the RLEM mitogenome with those of other mites from the order Trombidiformes. Phylogenies were inferred through Bayesian inference using a combination of nucleotide sequences and gene order arrangements of protein-coding and rRNA genes.
