Record phenological responses to climate change in three sympatric penguin species
This paper is impressive because we managed to monitor extensively a really difficult place to reach and operate in. We deployed 77 cameras across Antarctica and the Sub Antarctic islands to monitor three different species of penguins. We found that they are the fastest advancing vertebrates with respect to their timing of breeding.

Changes to mean early‐life phenotypes are fundamentally driven by joint dynamics of plasticity and selection, but such effects are rarely quantified. We show that cross‐cohort stasis in the degree of partial migration is underpinned by substantial within‐ and among‐cohort variation in plasticity and selection on migration, indicating high environmental

This original research piece demonstrates, through empirical and theoretical modelling approaches, that the epibionts of striped dolphins indicate dolphin abundance shifts caused by epidemics of dolphin morbillivirus (DMV). In addition, we provide the first SIR model to investigate the epidemiology of DMV in western Mediterranean striped dolphins ...

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems
Ecological paradigms suggest that the environmentally stressful edge of a habitat is determined by physical factors. The work finds that, counter to these paradigms, an environmentally stressful edge can also be impacted by biotic interactions and are more complex than suggested.

Why Should we Worry about Nigeria's Fragile Security?
Abstract This paper explores the multifaceted implications of Nigeria's persistent security crisis, highlighting its domestic, regional and global consequences. It examines the humanitarian toll, economic disruption, poverty, food insecurity and the erosion of social cohesion within Nigeria. Regionally, it analyses how Nigeria's instability exacerbates

Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.

Recent years have seen landmark progress in our understanding of early Homo sapiens occupation of Europe, owing to new excavations and the application of new analytical methods. Research on British sites, however, continues to lag. This is because of limitations inherent in existing cave collections, and limited options for new fieldwork at known sites.
