Ontogeny of foraging behaviour in an opportunistic gull inhabiting urban marine ecosystems
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urbanization affects ecosystems by reducing biodiversity and displacing species from native habitats. While some suffer, others, like urban wildlife, adapt through innovative feeding and behaviours that improve their fitness in human‐altered settings. Despite research on wildlife in urban areas, the development of foraging behaviour in urban species is

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.We are convinced that this paper can contribute to a better comprehension of the impact of climate change on marine ecosystems. We describe how Marine Heat Waves, which have been increasing in frequency, extent and intensity during the last decades, can negatively affect habitat‐forming species over time. Abstract Climate change is impacting ecosystems

Mediterranean octocoral populations exposed to marine heatwaves are less resilient to disturbances
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.We demonstrate that marine heat waves decrease the resilience of Mediterranean octocorals to further disturbances. Abstract The effects of climate change are now more pervasive than ever. Marine ecosystems have been particularly impacted by climate change, with marine heatwaves (MHWs) being a strong driver of mass mortality events.

Young radicals, moderates and aligned: Ideological congruence and incongruence in party youth wings
European Journal of Political Research, EarlyView.Abstract The ideological fit between party grassroots and leaderships has long been a concern for political science, with members in general, and young members in particular, thought to be more radical. However, we do not know, first, whether this is still the case and, if it is, what drives members in different ideological directions.

European Journal of Political Research, EarlyView.Abstract Growing evidence exists about the importance of dark personality traits – narcissism, psychopathy and Machiavellianism – in political leaders, broadly leading to heightened political aggressiveness and partisan conflict. Building on this expanding research agenda, we study the possible association between dark personality in politicians and ...

The value of liberal democracy: Assessing citizens' commitment to democratic principles
European Journal of Political Research, EarlyView.Abstract Recent studies suggest that citizens are unlikely to trade off free elections for other desirable outcomes, such as economic growth. However, while free elections are central to democracies, today democracy is not often undermined by abolishing elections.

Insect Science, EarlyView.• We explored intraspecific variation of thermal tolerance among populations of a widespread diving beetle across an elevational gradient.• We found no evidence of local adaption of thermal tolerance along the elevational gradient and limited plasticity of thermal limits.• Our results suggest thermal niche conservatism as a result of gene flow or ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.To monitor populations of an endangered species such as Galemys pyrenaicus in the Extremadura area, qPCR techniques have been used to determine sex, using non‐invasive sampling techniques. ABSTRACT Desmans belong to the subfamily Desmaninae, which are members of the family Talpidae.
