ABSTRACT Toxins for vertebrate pest control in bait material degrade under field conditions but there are limited data available on the degradation of toxins used in canid pest ejectors (hereafter ejectors). Re‐use of non‐activated capsules would be practical for end‐users and support the optimal and cost‐efficient use of vertebrate toxins.

Recursive and Cyclic Constructions for Double‐Change Covering Designs
ABSTRACT A double‐change covering design (DCCD) is a v‐set V and an ordered list L of b blocks of size k where every pair from V must occur in at least one block and each pair of consecutive blocks differs by exactly two elements. It is minimal if it has the fewest blocks possible and circular when the first and last blocks also differ by two elements.

ABSTRACT This study presents multifaceted analyses of metal artefacts from the Jodłowno Hoard (Northern Poland), revealing that the metal originated from Iberian polymetallic ore deposits. Transported as raw ingots via Atlantic maritime routes, this copper was reworked locally into regionally distinctive forms.

Perspectives on Time and Personality: Philip G. Zimbardo (1934–2024) in Memoriam
ABSTRACT The present paper aims to honor the memory of one of the most notable figures in psychological science over the past five decades, Philip G. Zimbardo, who sadly passed away in late 2024. To this end, we provide a multi‐perspective view on psychological time—a topic that deeply engaged Phil Zimbardo during the later stages of his prolific ...

ABSTRACT This paper proposes a novel extension of the classical cobweb price model by incorporating behavioral inventory responses through an anticipatory mini‐storage mechanism. In many real‐world commodity markets, persistent price oscillations occur even when classical stability conditions are theoretically satisfied, an inconsistency traditional ...

Preservation biases in the fossil record distort species ecological niche and distribution models
Ecological niche models (ENMs) increasingly leverage the fossil record to understand species' environmental associations and predict their geographic distributions. However, fossils do not occur uniformly through time and space, which can compromise the robustness of ENMs and thus affect ecological conclusions. Here, we assessed how preservation biases

Abstract Grasslands are an imperiled ecosystem, and grassland bird abundance is declining across North America. One of the strongest drivers for these declines is woody plant encroachment of grasslands. In the Great Plains and Sagebrush biomes of North America, spatial covariance—a remote‐sensing metric for tracking boundaries between vegetation types ...

Abstract Mesocarnivores navigate a complex risk–reward continuum in ecosystems shared with their apex counterparts, balancing scavenging opportunities with risks of mortality. However, the risks to mesocarnivores in multi‐carnivore systems are not uniform; they can vary with specific apex–meso pairings.
