Contrasting effects of temperature across trophic levels in geothermally warmed soil food webs
Oikos, EarlyView.Global warming is altering the structure and dynamics of ecological communities, with significant consequences for soil food webs. Rising temperatures are expected to accelerate metabolic rates in organisms, potentially altering species interactions, and the structure and energetics of food webs.

The Development of a Theory of Rational Intertemporal Choice
Papers, 2006 The aim of this article is to describe the evolution of a very dynamic theory: the theory of intertemporal choice. I present the first economic thinking on intertemporal decision-making, and expose how it resulted in Samuelson’s famous discounted utility

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today. By analyzing four Asian species, we identified a shift from dry, dehiscent fruits that release seeds into the air to fleshy, berry‐like fruits adapted for animal dispersal.

An objective Bayesian method for including parameter uncertainty in ensemble model output statistics
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Conventional model output statistics and ensemble model output statistics methods for calibrating ensemble forecasts lead to severe underestimation of the probabilities of ensemble extremes (in blue). This is because they ignore statistical parameter uncertainty.

Entanglement Swapping for Partially Entangled Qudits and the Role of Quantum Complementarity
Advanced Quantum Technologies, EarlyView.The entanglement swapping protocol is extended to partially entangled qudit states and analyzed through complete complementarity relations. Analytical bounds on the average distributed entanglement are established, showing how the initial local predictability and entanglement constrain the operational distribution.
