Little is known about how anthropogenic processes have affected the evolution of tree species with a long‐time‐scale history of human utilization such as common walnut (Juglans regia L.) and sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.). In this study, we evaluated the impact of isolation by distance processes, landscape heterogeneity, and cultural boundaries

A Survey of Visual Analytics for Public Health
We describe visual analytics solutions aiming to support public health professionals, and thus, preventive measures. Prevention aims at advocating behaviour and policy changes likely to improve human health. Public health strives to limit the outbreak of acute diseases as well as the reduction of chronic diseases and injuries.

The Mechanisms of Neolithisation of Western Europe: Beyond a South/North Approach
Up until now, the neolithisation of Western Europe during the sixth millennium BCE has mainly been approached through the characterisation of its diffusion vectors (cultural vs demic diffusion) and the emergence of technoeconomic innovations (rhythms ...

Paleogenomics of the prehistory of Europe: human migrations, domestication and disease
A substantial portion of ancient DNA research has been centred on understanding European populations’ origin and evolution. A rchaeological evidence has already shown that the peopling of Europe involved an intricate pattern of demic and/or cultural ...

Assessing the importance of cultural diffusion in the Bantu spread into southeastern Africa.
The subsistence of Neolithic populations is based on agriculture, whereas that of previous populations was based on hunting and gathering. Neolithic spreads due to dispersal of populations are called demic, and those due to the incorporation of hunter ...

Transition to farming – transition to milk culture: a case study from Mala Triglavca, Slovenia
In this paper, we discuss the transition to milk culture. While archaeological and biochemical data suggest that dairying was adopted in the Neolithic in Europe, archaeogenetic data show the absence of the allelic variant –13 910*T and very low lactase ...
