Using MALDI‐FTICR Mass Spectrometry to Enhance ZooMS Identifications of Pleistocene Bone Fragments Showing Variable Collagen Preservation

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Recent advances in high‐throughput molecular analyses of collagen peptides, especially ZooMS (Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry), have permitted breakthroughs in the analysis of archaeological material that is highly fragmented, a factor that hinders morphological identification.

Social Science and the Naturalization of Social Metaphysics

Journal of Social Ontology
Some philosophers challenge the advisability of naturalizing social metaphysics by appeal to social science. They argue that social science fails to meet criteria for realist commitment, such as unity and novel predictive power, and that social science ...

Historical remote sensing highlights long‐term persistence of Emperor Penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) colonies

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Remote sensing can reveal population dynamics of Antarctic penguin colonies. In this study, we analyze emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) guano stains in remote sensing imagery and discover colony presence predating known records for 18 colonies across Antarctica.

Moral Economies of Debt Forgiveness and Enforcement in Postcrisis Iceland

Economic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Who deserves financial relief in times of crisis, and on what grounds? The 2008 collapse of Iceland's banking system prompted state intervention to mitigate household indebtedness, including forbearance, pension withdrawals, repayment adjustments, and debt reductions.

Seeing Heritage Management through Systems Science

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heritage is influenced by a range of multifaceted factors, such as global issues, power dynamics, entangled legal frameworks and multilayered needs. The interplay of these elements creates a challenging environment for heritage managers, who must navigate a web of stakeholders with diverse interests and values. This paper suggests that systems

Identity Entanglement: Rethinking Marginality through the Intersectional, Liminal, and Antithetical

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
While identity research has given sustained attention to marginality, intersectionality, and the effects of power on identity, the formal interactional dynamics through which identities are constituted remain limited. I present identity entanglement as a useful framework for better understanding and articulating the relational complexities of identity.

Integration of Micro‐CT and XRF Mapping for Multimodal 3D Analysis of Polychrome Wooden Artifacts

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past 5 years, computer applications have become crucial to archeological research. Since the 1990s, the focus has transitioned from data management tools to the development of virtual models. Recently, digital documentation of cultural heritage has gained considerable focus, with 3D modeling of objects.

Distributed computing for the reconstruction of multi‐terabyte tomographic X‐ray imaging datasets

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
As tomographic datasets from synchrotrons continue to increase in volume, so rises the challenge of reconstructing said data. Here we present a solution utilizing high‐performance computing capabilities to split the process into multiple smaller tasks, which can be solved without overwhelming a single compute node.

Synchrotron X‐ray tomography and spectroscopy in numismatics: disclosing counterfeit practices in medieval silver coins

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
Advanced synchrotron‐radiation‐based imaging and spectroscopic techniques were used to investigate the distribution and nature of mercury in numismatic artifacts, with a particular focus on its role in historical counterfeiting practices.This study explores the use of advanced synchrotron radiation (SR)‐based imaging and spectroscopic techniques to ...
