2. The Postwar Scene

, 1958
Turning now from the immediate diplomatic aftermath of World War I, let us examine some major features of Western Civilization during what has been called the long weekend, the two decades between that war and World War II (1919-1939). We will note first

Mountainous vegetation succession and land use during the last millennium in the Peloponnese (southern Greece): Environmental change and economic development in an isolated periphery

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mediterranean mountainous areas and their valuable natural resources have long been attractive to human societies. The Peloponnese (southern Greece), with its complex topographic and climatic variability, has been the scenery for the development of numerous human communities.

Non‐invasive Analyses of an Etruscan Fibula From Vulci (Italy): The Benefits of a Combination of Micro‐Raman Spectroscopy, 3D Reconstruction Through X‐Ray Microscopy and ED‐XRF With Monte Carlo Simulation

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
This study analyzed an Etruscan bronze fibula through non‐destructive techniques. The patina and alloy were examined using micro‐Raman spectroscopy and ED‐XRF with Monte Carlo simulations, revealing the formation of corrosion products such as brochantite and sampleite and a binary Cu‐Sn alloy composition.

Study of Garnets in Hellenistic–Roman Jewellery From the Collections of the Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki, Greece

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
This study presents the gemological analysis of 25 garnets from Hellenistic and Roman jewellery in the Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki using mobile Raman spectroscopy and micro‐EDXRF. The garnets are classified into three geochemical clusters, with notable differences in distribution between Thessaloniki and Pydna, suggesting distinct trading ...

Occurrence of natural tree cavities suitable for nesting wood ducks across South Carolina forest types

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Although evidence suggests >90% of the North American wood duck population nests in natural tree cavities, few studies have investigated the occurrence of these cavities across their southern breeding range. We aimed to determine forest and tree characteristics associated with the presence of cavities and cavities suitable for wood duck nesting and our

Understanding stoichiometric adjustments in a freshwater plant: Responses to sediment and water nutrient dynamics across lake trophic gradients

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite ongoing efforts to reduce nutrient inputs, eutrophication continues to disrupt biogeochemical cycles and destabilize freshwater food webs. In this study, we examine the stoichiometric responses of the freshwater plant Myriophyllum spicatum under varied environmental conditions across lakes of differing trophic status.
