The Insistence of Blackness and the Persistence of Antiblackness in Ireland

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper positions Ireland as a critical site for examining the insistence of blackness and an antiblackness created and sustained through Irish ethnonationalist imaginaries and exclusionary processes. Drawing on connected sociologies and Irish Black Studies, this enquiry argues that antiblackness in Ireland operates as a generational force,

Australian Activists as Storytellers in Digital Spaces: Acquiring Skills, Producing Content and Getting the Message Out

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As modes of activism rapidly evolve, activists—both seasoned and emerging—must increasingly navigate a hybrid terrain of both digital and non‐digital engagement. This paper draws on the personal narratives of 16 nascent activists based in Australia to explore how they develop competencies related to digital storytelling, which is critical to ...

Garryanalyzer: A morphometric workflow and open‐source ImageJ plug‐in for quantitative morphological analysis of Pacific Northwest Quercus leaves

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Accurate species identification is crucial for ecological restoration and can be especially challenging for understudied non‐model species. Quercus garryana is the only native oak species in the Pacific Northwest and is an important component of the endangered oak savanna ecosystem.

Molecular methods for differentiating Phragmites australis subspecies and identification of hybrid stands in the Upper Midwestern United States

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise In North America, Phragmites australis (common reed) has drawn a great deal of research attention. Non‐native P. australis subsp. australis is a noxious weed that has locally displaced native P. australis subsp. americanus in some areas.

Osteological correlates of the respiratory and vascular systems in the neural canals of Mesozoic ornithurines Ichthyornis and Janavis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract In birds, the neural canal houses a variety of anatomical structures including the spinal cord, meninges, spinal vasculature, and respiratory diverticula. Among these, paramedullary diverticula and the extradural dorsal spinal vein may leave behind osteological correlates in the form of pneumatic foramina and fossae, and a bilobed geometry of ...

A spatial risk map of gray wolf livestock depredations across the Great Lakes Region

Global Ecology and Conservation
Livestock depredations by gray wolves are a source of human-wildlife conflict across their recolonizing range in the midwestern United States of America (USA) which may hinder recovery efforts.

Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.
