Controls on erosional retreat of the uplifted rift flanks at the Gulf of Suez and northern Red Sea
TL;DR: In this article, the authors find that the amount and timing of erosion vary systematically along the strike of the margin and have been controlled by variations in the perift stratigraphy, which is explained by a model in which erosion along the Gulf of Suez is initiated as rift flank uplift becomes sufficiently large to expose the friable sandstones.

Geomorphology of the central Red Sea Rift: Determining spreading processes
Nico Augustin,Froukje M. van der Zwan,Froukje M. van der Zwan,Colin W. Devey,Marco Ligi,Tom Kwasnitschka,Peter Feldens,Rashad A. R. Bantan,Ali S. Basaham +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used ship-based, high-resolution multibeam bathymetry of the central RSR between 16.5°N and 23°N to compare their morphologies to those observed along slow and ultra-slow spreading ridges elsewhere.

Cooling and drying in northeast Africa across the Pliocene
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used marine sediments from Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) Site 231 in the Gulf of Aden to generate a multi-proxy organic geochemical record of northeast African climate spanning 5.3-2 Ma.

Earliest human remains in Eurasia: New 40Ar/39Ar dating of the Dmanisi hominid-bearing levels, Georgia
Tristan Garcia,Gilbert Féraud,Christophe Falguères,Henry de Lumley,Christian Perrenoud,David Lordkipanidze +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, direct dating of the lower hominid-bearing level on volcanic glass and minerals using the 40Ar/39Ar method was carried out on two different sampled locations to determine the age of the earliest human presence in Eurasia.
