Cumulative heatwave stress disrupts thermal homeostasis and plumage structure in a Mediterranean passerine

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Heatwaves are becoming increasingly frequent across the Mediterranean and pose critical challenges for small passerines, yet the physiological and morphological limits to their resilience remain poorly understood.

Flexible parental care in a songbird correlates with sex‐specific responses to seasonal phenology, mating opportunity and reproductive success

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This population‐comparative study reveals that male and female parents respond differently to social and ecological conditions. This sex‐specific responsive strategy is related to the incongruent parental care systems across populations in Chinese penduline tits.

Beyond first clutches: Second broods reshape selection on breeding timing in forest and urban great tits

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Most studies of selection on breeding timing consider only first clutches. Using a 13‐year dataset of urban and forest great tits, we show that including second broods reshapes estimates of natural selection, revealing that early breeding is favoured through increased probability of multiple brooding and higher annual reproductive output.

Amidst (waste) abundance: world‐making and struggles in hosting a municipal landfill in the Bolivian lowlands Au milieu de l'abondance (de déchets) : fabrication du monde et luttes liées à la gestion d'une décharge municipale dans les basses terres de Bolivie

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
In recent decades, solid waste has proliferated worldwide, becoming a pressing global issue. This article explores the role of Indigenous people dwelling within and upon emerging waste scenarios, with a specific focus on involved forms of sociality and ontological contestation. Drawing on the case of a municipal landfill sited on a Guarani community in

Islam at the monastery: on infinity as subtractive truth L'islam au monastère : de l'infini comme vérité soustractive

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Based on ethnographic research at Rūm Orthodox Christian monasteries in Lebanon, the article studies scenes of Islam at the monastery as they intersect with anxious public debates on, and anthropological theorizations of, sectarianism and ‘Muslim–Christian’ relations in the Mashriq.
