Old Bones in New Databases: Historical Insights Into Race, Statistics, and Ancestry Estimation in Anthropology

American Anthropologist, Volume 127, Issue 3, Page 566-580, September 2025.
ABSTRACT This article explores the persistence of race in biological anthropology, particularly in the context of ancestry estimation using the Fordisc software. Despite efforts to move away from race‐based typologies since the mid‐20th century, historical notions of race continue to shape scientific methods and technologies in anthropology. By tracing

Spatially nested species distribution models (N‐SDM): An effective tool to overcome niche truncation for more robust inference and projections

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 7, Page 1588-1605, July 2025.
N‐SDMs are key tools to develop untruncated regional climate change forecasts of species distributions at fine resolution over restricted extents. While several N‐SDM approaches were proposed, there is currently no universal solution suggesting that further developments and testing are crucial if we are to derive robust future projections of species ...

Macroclimatic niche similarity and species relatedness shift their influence on species co‐occurrence in bryophyte forest communities across scales

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 6, Page 1546-1559, June 2025.
The relationship between epiphytic bryophyte species associations changes with scale. Macroclimatic niche similarity strongly influences co‐occurrence globally but less so at smaller scales. Most species interactions are positive or neutral across scales, though ~7% shift from positive at microhabitat to negative at regional scales, highlighting scale ...

PhyBaSE: A Bayesian structural equation model approach to causal inference in phylogenetic comparative analyses

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 1136-1148, June 2025.
Abstract One of the main limitations of phylogenetic comparative analyses is that associations between traits can only be interpreted as correlations. Here, we present a novel Bayesian structural equation model (PhyBaSE) which allows us to disentangle direct from indirect relationships among variables to propose potential causal hypotheses while ...

On a class of embedded cubature formulae on the simplex

ACI Avances en Ciencias e Ingenierías, 2014
In this paper we investigate a class of embedded cubature formulae on the simplex announced in [1]. Here we recall the class of formulae, we introduce the remainder and we give an estimation of this, we also investigate the convergence.

Neoliberalism and the Contradictions of Centralized State Planning in Colombia: Development, Democracy, Peace, and Rural Transformations

Latin American Policy, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2025.
ABSTRACT This article examines the academic literature and reports on Colombia's National Development Plans over the past 50 years. It aims to identify the central debates regarding Colombia's development model, addressing a series of contradictions, path‐dependent outcomes, salient variations, and issue framing.
