Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Wildlife reintroductions are socioecological processes entailing the intentional movement of organisms by people. In animal reintroductions, there is growing recognition of the importance of human dimensions and efforts to integrate these into reintroduction projects. To conceptually reframe reintroductions as processes of renewed coexistence (

Cross‐border reciprocal bartering in public–private tetradic networks
Decision Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract Under the background of semiconductor and vaccine shortages during COVID‐19‐driven supply chain disruptions, this article adopts a multimethodological approach to investigate strategic solutions for cross‐border scarce goods bartering in a public–private (P–P) tetradic reciprocal network, which involves two pairs of P–P collaborative dyads ...

How Does the NSFR Regulatory Constraint Affect Profitability and Lending? Evidence From EU Banks
European Financial Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the relationship between long‐term liquidity regulatory constraints, profitability, and lending activities in the EU banking sector. In particular, we examine how Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) liquidity requirements impact the profitability and the core banking activities of 187 banks. Our findings reveal that higher NSFR

Ibis, EarlyView.The detrimental effects of conventional farming on bird biodiversity are increasingly documented. Despite this, the specific impacts of both organic and conventional farming practices on bird coloration and sperm quality in natural settings remain unexplored. This study aimed to determine whether these farming practices differentially affect body mass,

Ibis, EarlyView.Birds may use their singing behaviours and song structure as agonistic signals in territorial encounters. We conducted an observational study to test this hypothesis in male Adelaide's Warblers Setophaga adelaidae, a tropical songbird that defends a territory year‐round.

An automated workflow that combines sound‐based bird identification and localization
Ibis, EarlyView.Field studies of bird communities typically require the fine‐scale mapping of individuals. Passive acoustic monitoring combined with localization of individuals is a promising approach to gather such data. Various approaches for the identification of species and localization of individuals have been proposed, but there is so far no fully automated ...

Urban birds' detectability is affected by inter‐ and intraspecific variation in shyness
Ibis, EarlyView.Detection probabilities differ between bird species as a function of their life history and ecological and behavioural traits, inevitably introducing bias in their abundance and occupancy estimates. However, the effects of behavioural traits such as species shyness and vigilance on detectability remain poorly understood.

Pan‐Europe Revisited: Inter‐War Debates and the EU's Pursuit of Geopolitical Power
JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The European Union's (EU) transformation from a peace project to an assertive geopolitical actor reflects enduring tensions in integration theory dating back to the inter‐war period. This paper develops a comparative framework distinguishing territorial integration logic, which emphasises bounded political communities and collective defence ...
