Human resource management strategies for small territories : an alternative proposition [PDF]
, 2001 This paper tackles the issue of educational development from a somewhat different, and still under-explored, perspective: that of human resource management (HRM).

Indirect Interactions Driven by Soil Effects Enable Coexistence Among Competing Plant Species
Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.We show that soil‐mediated indirect interactions can stabilize coexistence between competing plant species. Soil conditioned by a mediating species alters the microbial communities, metabolites and nutrients, boosting the growth of the weak competitor while reducing the germination of the dominant competing species.

Limited contribution by non‐volant small mammals to regeneration in ironstone rocky outcrops
Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.Abstract Introduction Animal‐mediated seed dispersal contributes substantially to natural regeneration in degraded areas. However, the role of seed dispersal by non‐volant small mammals (NVSM), mainly marsupials and rodents, in contributing to regeneration remains underexplored, especially in mountaintop, open‐canopy ecosystems.

Island Demography: A Review of Selected Caribbean Contributions [PDF]
, 2011 This article traces the demographic contributions of island studies scholarship in four sections. First, demographic transition theory is applied to the population history of the region. The second highlights the impact of this demographic scholarship on

Allelochemical and soil fungi co‐determine conspecific density dependence in a temperate forest
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Ecological theory predicts that the high local diversity observed in plant communities can be maintained by soilborne pathogens and allelopathic autotoxicity, both of which trigger negative conspecific density dependence (CDD). In contrast, mutualistic fungi and allelopathic promotion may counteract these biotic processes.

Wing and Pappus Appendages Decrease Seed Terminal Velocity: A Meta‐Analysis
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.This meta‐analysis integrated terminal velocity records for 1479 species from various sources and explored descriptive patterns by taxonomic group, seed dispersal vector, and seed appendage type. This study revealed that wing and pappus appendage decrease seed terminal velocity with a robust analysis using regression models to predict terminal velocity.

(Conflict) principles of European (consumer) contract law : an update [PDF]
, 2004 In April 2003 I commented on the European Commission’s Action Plan on a More Coherent European Contract Law [COM(2003) 68 final] and the Green Paper on the Modernisation of the 1980 Rome Convention [COM(2002) 654 final].1 While the main argument of that ...

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract About half of all plant species rely on animals such as scatter‐hoarding small mammals for seed dispersal. These plants include many keystone species for which small mammals are key primary and secondary dispersal agents as well as seed predators.

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Herbivores are important drivers of plant community composition and dominance in grassy ecosystems, yet few studies have attempted to understand how different types of herbivores impact plant dominance and function. This study examined the biomass of dominant grass species and other plant functional groups after 3 years of nested herbivore ...
