Habitat imprinting in breeding territory selection of a long‐lived bird of prey

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
A unique long‐term dataset has allowed this study of an important habitat selection mechanism, habitat imprinting, in a species which is typically extremely challenging to study. It gives us better understanding of the role of early experience in selection of breeding sites in long‐lived species with high breeding site fidelity.

Loanwords and Linguistic Phylogenetics: *pelek̑u‐ ‘axe’ and *(H)a(i̯)g̑‐ ‘goat’1

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 116-136, March 2025.
Abstract This paper assesses the role of borrowings in two different approaches to linguistic phylogenetics: Traditional qualitative analyses of lexemes, and quantitative computational analysis of cognacy. It problematises the assumption that loanwords can be excluded altogether from datasets of lexical cognacy.
