Generalized graphical mixed models connect ecological theory with widely used statistical models
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Ecological dynamics are often analysed across multiple sites, times, and variables. Ecologists typically represent interactions across space, time, and variables using generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs), generalized additive models (GAM), and structural equation models (SEM).

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Extension services are designed to facilitate the flow of information from researchers to farmers. However, information failures continue to impede the diffusion of soil‐improving and water conservation technologies in Sub‐Saharan African countries. We use a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to examine the impact of an extension‐based campaign

Growth and Variation in Fallow Deer (Dama dama L.) From Two Contrasting Habitats in Southern Britain
Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We have compiled a unique data set on the age, sex, body weight and dimensions of over 500 European fallow deer from two contrasting areas of habitat in southern England: a high‐density managed parkland population and a lower‐density feral woodland one.

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Weapons are morphological structures used by animals in various contexts, especially in intra‐specific contests and visual displays. In snapping shrimps of the genus Alpheus, particularly the monogamous species Alpheus brasileiro, both sexes bear enlarged chelipeds, potentially conferring advantages in mate competition or territorial defence ...
