Extreme weather and economic crisis in the 1430s in England, and the implications for tenurial change

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The 1430s were characterized by extreme weather conditions, food and fodder shortages, and high mortalities among animals and humans, although the severity of events and their consequences in England have received limited attention. The economic downturn and the depressed customary land market in this decade marked the beginning of the Great ...

Broussonetia papyrifera (L.) L’Hér. ex Vent., Microstegium vimineum (Trin.) A.Camus and Parthenium hysterophorus L. imported into the Netherlands via potted ornamentals or their coco peat substrate

open access: yesEPPO Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract While the presence of invasive plants as contaminants in potted plants is a well‐known phenomenon, its significance as a potential phytosanitary risk remains frequently underestimated. Coco peat, often used as a growing medium for potted plants, is also imported as a standalone commodity, creating an additional pathway for introduction.

A systematic review and meta‐analysis of variation in nest predation of ground‐nesting birds

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Predation and communities of predators of ground‐nesting bird nests and fledglings have been studied across multiple groups of ground‐nesting birds, such as waders, waterbirds, gamebirds and passerines, and habitats, but differences and similarities between groups are less studied.

Not all crickets are equal: selective shrike predation highlights the conservation value of diverse arthropod communities to grassland birds

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Understanding dietary preferences and prey selection is pivotal for interpreting the ecology and conservation needs of threatened species. We investigated the diet composition and prey selection of the Red‐backed Shrike Lanius collurio in a montane grassland of the central Italian Apennines, with special regard to sex‐related differences and the ...

Theorizing Waste as a Technique of Power in Capitalistic Stakeholder Relations

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Waste is an important socio‐ecological challenge of contemporary capitalism, contributing to climate change and environmental degradation. Despite its pervasiveness and its impacts on diverse stakeholders, it yet remains largely underexplored in management and organization studies.

Genetic, phenotypic, and ecological differentiation indicate a new cryptic and threatened species in the orchid genus Epidendrum from Alcatrazes Island, southeastern Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Epidendrum insularis occurs on the remote Alcatrazes Island in the southeastern Brazilian coast. The description of this new cryptic species was only possible by the joint use of molecular markers, reproductive experiments, flower morphometry, functional traits, and community analysis.

Molecular phylogenetic analysis sheds light on the diversity and evolutionary history of the Neotropical and African Triplophyllum (Tectariaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We used a molecular approach to resolve the evolutionary lineages of Neotropical Triplophyllum, uncovering that current species circumscriptions are hindered by high morphological homoplasy in indument characters. Our results support the recognition of three new species and provide a necessary neotypification for T.

Symphonic Gift: Wagner's Siegfried Idyll and the Hermeneutics of Sonata Form

open access: yesMusic Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article reimagines the place of programmatic interpretation within the New Formenlehre through the case study of Richard Wagner's Siegfried Idyll. To theorise the interaction between form and programme, I reconcile ‘separation’ and ‘conflation’ views – as represented by Julian Horton (2020) and Lawrence Kramer (2004a) – by deploying ...
