Petitions and the Material Culture of Political Organisation*

open access: yesParliamentary History, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 16-32, February 2026.
Abstract This article examines surviving manuscript petitions to reveal the material culture of political organisation. Conceptually, the article frames the material culture of petitions and the practices associated with petitioning as a technology that enabled political activity.

Shared Pain, Common Purpose: How Shared Problem Status Drives Congressional Collaboration on Opioid Legislation

open access: yesLegislative Studies Quarterly, Volume 51, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Why do members of Congress collaborate on legislation in an era of intense partisan polarization? This paper argues that shared exposure to pressing, district‐level policy problems can motivate cross‐party collaboration, particularly in a policy area that cuts across traditional ideological divides. Focusing on the case of the opioid crisis, I

Quantifying the Influence of Vegetation on Net Snow Accumulation Across Elevations, Aspects and During Years With High and Low Snowfall

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January‐February 2026.
ABSTRACT Seasonal snowmelt from forested mountain catchments is the primary water source for both people and ecosystems in the western United States. As changes in climate and vegetation alter relationships between snow accumulation and water availability, quantifying the influence of ecosystem structure on snow water resources is a critical challenge.

Disentangling complex relationships and disjunctions in western Camassia: Integrating multiple criteria to resolve taxonomic boundaries

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 112, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Premise Understanding genetic and morphological variability helps efforts to sustain landscapes and develop effective species concepts for resolving difficult groups. To unravel puzzling relationships and range disjunctions, we applied morphometrics, phenology, phylogenetics and population genetics in Camassia species with cultural, ecological,

Trends and Disparities in Fall‐Related Head Injury Mortality Among Middle‐Aged and Older Adults (>55 Years) in the United States: A 21‐Year National Analysis (1999–2020)

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
From 1999 to 2020, fall‐related head‐injury mortality among US adults ≥55 rose markedly, with the highest rates in men, the oldest ages, Midwestern states, and nonmetropolitan areas, underscoring widening disparities and the urgent need for targeted fall prevention and timely, equitable access to trauma care.

Object detection‐assisted workflow facilitates cryptic snake monitoring

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 606-617, October 2025.
Camera traps are powerful tools used to study animals. However, camera trap studies often produce large datasets requiring labor‐intensive classification. While many object detection models have been developed to facilitate image analysis, their efficacy when presented with novel species and systems is poorly understood.

Oviposition Response to Light With Different Spectra in the Crepuscular Moth Grapholita molesta

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
The crepuscular moth Grapholita molesta can discriminate differences in light wavelength, exhibiting a strong preference to lay eggs in UV light. ABSTRACT The light spectrum is a critical visual feature influencing insect behavior. The crepuscular moth Grapholita molesta (Busck), a significant pest of stone and pome fruits worldwide, has been shown to ...

Focused aquifer regeneration produced outsized gains for a threatened fish in a populated, dryland watershed

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract A combination of groundwater pumping and shifting precipitation patterns is drawing down aquifer levels in many of the world's drylands and is predicted to generate widespread loss of perennial streamflows over the next few decades. This process broadly threatens freshwater biota, especially in arid and semiarid regions.

Stationary steam power in the United Kingdom, 1800–70: An empirical reassessment

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 825-848, August 2025.
Abstract The conventional view that the industrial revolution was premised on the unprecedented supply of mechanical power delivered via steam engines has been undermined by econometric work, purporting to show that their adoption outside the cotton and mining sectors was extremely limited until at least 1870.

Recruitment of Captive‐Reared Florida Grasshopper Sparrows After Translocation: Age of Release Matters

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
We found that a non‐migratory passerine raised in a conservation breeding facility demonstrated higher recruitment when translocated soon after fledging than when translocated as second‐year birds after spending their first winter in captivity. Despite being translocated only a few weeks before the onset of breeding, second‐year birds failed to settle ...
