Making Waves: The Effects of Whitewater Parks on Fish Passage in Colorado

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Instream structures have fragmented riverine habitats throughout much of the world, including the Western USA. Whitewater parks (WWPs) are relatively new instream structures designed to create hydraulic waves for recreational boating and surfing by constricting flows into a steep chute or drop.

IDLB: An SDN‐Based Load‐Balancing Routing Protocol for Autonomous Satellite Constellation Networks

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Routing in satellite constellation networks with intersatellite links has become an important aspect to enable broadband Internet access and to integrate into terrestrial networks. However, their dynamic characteristics and large physical size require specifically tailored solutions.

Lightweight Hybrid Wafer Defect Pattern Network Based on Feedforward Efficient Attention

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the increase of semiconductor integration density, in order to cope with the increase of wafer defect complexity and types, especially the low recognition accuracy of overlapping mixed defects and unknown wafer defects, this study proposes a lightweight model for wafer defect detection called LightWMNet.

Apex predators exploit advantageous snow conditions across hunting modes

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Advantageous snow conditions—in terms of snow depth and density—are among the most important features of the winter landscape for two apex predators, regardless of hunting strategy. In a warming climate, the knock‐on effects of a diminishing snowpack may reduce the hunting success of multiple large carnivore species.

A reappraisal of the Middle to Later Stone Age prehistory of Morocco Réévaluer la préhistoire du Maroc, du Middle Stone Age au Later Stone Age

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
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.

Fluctuating futures: coming of age in the biggest social housing neighbourhood in Milan Futurs fluctuants : passage à l’âge adulte dans le plus grand quartier de logements sociaux de Milan

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article – part of a six‐year ethnographic research project – aims to deconstruct and ‘decolonize’ essentialized notions of adolescence and youth, primarily through the application of the category of intersectionality. The research focuses on a series of educational initiatives implemented in San Siro, one of Milan's largest public housing ...

Unnatural Wills: Inheritance Disputes and Inequality

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Within the conceptual frame of relational economic sociology, inheritance disputes are a canonical form of relational mismatch. But the social patterning of relational mismatches, and their various ties to inequality, remain murky. In this paper, I examine all known inheritance disputes in Dallas from 1895–1945 within their social context to ...

Towards scalable insect monitoring: Ultra‐lightweight CNNs as on‐device triggers for insect camera traps

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Camera traps, combined with AI, have emerged to achieve automated, scalable biodiversity monitoring. However, passive infrared (PIR) sensors that typically trigger camera traps are poorly suited for detecting small, fast‐moving ectotherms such as insects. Insects comprise over half of all animal species and are key components of ecosystems and

A review of autonomous reef monitoring structures (ARMS) for monitoring hard‐bottom benthic biodiversity

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Amid increasing anthropogenic pressures on ecosystems, standardised biodiversity monitoring is critical for assessing biodiversity change. Marine hard‐bottom habitats, though ubiquitous and biodiverse, present challenges for biodiversity monitoring due to their complex structure and limited accessibility. Autonomous reef monitoring structures (

«Différant des Autres», Espacements et Temporalités Spectrales

Anthropology of Consciousness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT That night that he agreed to our suggestion that we accompany him outside, for the whole night or until the overflow has passed, M seemed to be in direct contact with all the layers of astronomy, inhabiting all temporalities simultaneously. Outside, lying/sitting on the picnic table, in the pitch‐black darkness of the night in the woods, under
