Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
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.

Contrasting associations between parental coordination and breeding success in albatrosses across differing environmental contexts

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrates that the benefits of parental coordination in albatrosses are context‐dependent rather than universal. Coordinated parental care enhanced reproductive success in stable environments, but had little effect in variable environments, where individual flexibility may be more valuable.

Why don't all birds lay early? Causes and consequences of breeding timing for a long‐lived migratory seabird

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Why don't all birds lay early? Our 16‐year study of Manx shearwater behaviour shows that selection on breeding timing fluctuates among years. We also find that lay dates are influenced by persistent individual differences, variation in non‐breeding duration, and pair synchrony, potentially constraining breeding phenological advancement under ongoing ...

Floral Biology, Breeding System and Conservation Implications for the Azorean Endemic Azorina vidalii (Campanulaceae)

Plants
This study investigates the seasonal and floral phenology, breeding strategies, and floral morphology of Azorina vidalii, an Azorean endemic Campanulaceae with hermaphroditic, protandrous flowers, dichogamy and secondary pollen presentation.

Host‐mediated filtering and interspecific associations structure strongyle parasite communities in Sable Island horses

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using individual‐level nemabiome metabarcoding of 3147 samples from 916 horses on Sable Island over 10 years, we generate the largest dataset of its kind to date. This unprecedented scale enables a rare test of the processes structuring parasite communities in a natural system, revealing dominant host‐mediated filtering and predominantly positive ...

The Early Upper Palaeolithic in British caves: problems and potential Le Paléolithique supérieur ancien dans les grottes de Grande‐Bretagne : problèmes et potentiels

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
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.

State Choices, Unequal Access: Policies Shaping Reproductive Health Care Across the United States

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points State policies and programs play an outsized role in shaping availability and access to sexual and reproductive health services across the nation. This has a major impact on women's access to contraception, abortion, and maternity services.

“Women of the Happy Life”: Prostitution, Public Morality, and Venereal Disease in US‐Occupied Nicaragua, 1912–33

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the years of the US occupation (1912–33), Nicaragua's government legally regulated prostitution. Convinced of their objectives to protect society's moral and public health, politicians embarked on a long struggle to apprehend, quarantine, and segregate female prostitutes nationwide.

Intellectual Property Restitution

The Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
In Europe, open GLAM movements and cultural restitution reforms are overlooking a crucial aspect that should not be underestimated: what should happen to the archival materials, digital collections and intellectual property that are indelibly linked to cultural property.

Consideration Without Economic Duress: Reframing the Analysis of Contractual Modifications

The Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
Prevailing approaches to the contractual enforceability of modifications revise or dispense with the requirement of consideration and invoke economic duress to rule out unfair, inequitable, or bad faith modifications. Enforceability turns effectively on the absence of economic duress. But economic duress is a doctrine of avoidance.
