Moral certainty and the wrongness of killing: A non‐propositional view

Philosophical Investigations, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 170-194, April 2026.
Abstract In 2008 I published a paper making the case that Wittgenstein's On Certainty reflections can be fruitfully extended to cast light on the foundations of our moral lives and practices. My primary example was that the wrongness of killing is a basic moral certainty.

Understanding the 2024 Summer Riots in the UK: Three Case Studies

Journal of Community &Applied Social Psychology, Volume 36, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT The wave of riots in England in summer 2024 constituted the biggest wave of disorder in the country for more than a decade. These were followed by swift policy responses, based on assumptions about the events and the participants, before any detailed empirical investigation had been carried out.

Precipitation and tree biomass correlate with the diversity and functional composition of tropical rainforest cricket assemblages across climate and disturbance gradients

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
Disturbance‐driven changes in rainforest structure and environmental conditions can alter ecosystem functioning, yet the consequences for invertebrate communities – key contributors to decomposition, herbivory, and trophic interactions – are not fully understood, particularly in relation to structural changes in vegetation.

Remote sensing and geospatial analysis for the study of plant community regeneration in human‐modified landscapes

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Natural regeneration is essential for maintaining functionally diverse and resilient plant communities in human‐modified landscapes. To design and implement successful conservation and restoration initiatives in these landscapes, research on the environmental and anthropogenic drivers of natural regeneration must be scaled up beyond ...

Drilling Within the Critical Zone

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
This review synthesises 30 years of critical zone drilling methodologies for studying subsurface weathering, water storage, and biogeochemical processes. We evaluate drilling techniques, sampling strategies, downhole logging, and long‐term monitoring approaches while addressing contamination control and core preservation challenges.

Territorial birds of prey adjust their flight behaviour over the course of the breeding season depending on their breeding success

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 2, March 2026.
Flight plays a central role in the life histories of birds but is extremely energy demanding. Reproduction is also associated with high energy demands. We might thus expect to see differences in movement behaviour between individuals that breed successfully, those that breed unsuccessfully, and those that do not breed, assuming that individuals adapt ...

Landslide Character and Hydrological Thresholds for Slope Failure Initiation on Volcanic Scoria Slopes: Case Study From Mt Hobson/Ōhinerau, Auckland, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Rainfall‐induced landslides involving on Auckland Volcanic Field scoria cones are highly unusual, compared with widespread landsliding in the surrounding Auckland clay‐rich residual soils. Indeed, while Auckland can suffer from thousands of rainfall‐induced shallow landslides from severe storms at subdecadal timescales, these are usually limited to ...

Five New Species of New Zealand Hemiandrus Ander 1938 Ground wētā (Orthoptera: Anostostomatidae)

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.
Five new species of ground wētā endemic to Aotearoa New Zealand are described based on morphological traits and informed by phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial DNA sequences. Hemiandrus briarae sp. nov. is a robust species living on mountains in northeast South Island, and H. dryadis sp. nov. is a gracile denizen of forests in northwest South Island.
