Multi-Species Canopy Latrines in Costa Rican Cloud Forests: A Mammal Interactions Hub in a Single Tree Species. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe documented arboreal, multi‐species mammal latrines in montane cloud forests of Costa Rica by surveying 169 trees across 29 species. Latrines were found exclusively on Ficus tuerckheimii, with 11 occurrences across two mountain ranges and an additional observation in Honduras.

The bread of Toledo: Prices and political economy, 1535–1800
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract We study the market for common white bread in the city of Toledo through a new 266‐year‐long series of bread prices, obtained from the cash purchases and wholesale bread‐for‐wheat contracts of large institutions. Our data are strongly consistent with fragmentary evidence on retail price regulation, as well as with shorter series from other ...

External structures at the nest‐site predict asymmetric architecture of nests in a mud‐building bird
Ibis, EarlyView.In the animal kingdom, nests are essential structures and textbook examples of extended phenotypes. However, the relationship between builders, nest traits and the nest‐site remains poorly understood. We indirectly examine whether structures in the nest‐site influence nest‐building behaviour, specifically focusing on their effect on nest architecture ...

Risks of concealing environmental degradation
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.Abstract Current practice seeks to conceal the visual impact of land‐use change (i.e., development). Six percent of development impact assessments in Australia and 14% of the World Bank's assessments recommend visual impact mitigation. This mitigation results in, for example, vegetated buffer strips alongside cleared agricultural areas and earthen ...

Child and Adolescent Mental Health, Volume 31, Issue 3, Page 186-197, September 2026.Background While numerous studies have explored factors contributing to poor mental health, few have examined the combined influence of multiple health and social factors and their cumulative effect. This study specifically aimed to analyze the cumulative effect of multiple health and social factors associated with poor mental well‐being in school‐aged

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.Our findings show that Eurasian jay dispersal activity depends on specific understorey structures when selecting caching microsites—particularly shrub cover and standing pines. These features could be directly shaped by management to promote assisted natural oak regeneration.

The Evolution of UAE's Africa Foreign Policy: Motivations, Strategies and Challenges
Politics &Policy, Volume 54, Issue 4, August 2026.ABSTRACT Recent studies on the foreign policies of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries attribute their increasing involvement in Africa to security and economic considerations. However, only a few studies have investigated the foreign policies of the individual GCC countries in more detail for confirmation. Hence, using a neorealist perspective on

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.We evaluated whether citizen science–derived camera‐trap records can be used to characterize large‐scale activity patterns of a widely distributed mesocarnivore across heterogeneous landscapes. Using 821 independent iNaturalist records, we quantified activity across six major vegetation types in Mexico with kernel density estimation, circular ...

Survival and Behavior of Amphibians in a Seasonally Flooded Tropical Forest
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.How do tropical amphibians survive seasonal flooding? A three‐year capture–mark–recapture study in Costa Rica revealed species‐specific responses to flood events, with flooding reducing apparent survival in some species while others persisted through behavioral adaptations and use of arboreal refugia.
