Why don't all birds lay early? Causes and consequences of breeding timing for a long‐lived migratory seabird

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Why don't all birds lay early? Our 16‐year study of Manx shearwater behaviour shows that selection on breeding timing fluctuates among years. We also find that lay dates are influenced by persistent individual differences, variation in non‐breeding duration, and pair synchrony, potentially constraining breeding phenological advancement under ongoing ...

125 years of exploration and research at Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK) 125 ans d'exploration et de recherches à Gough's Cave (Somerset, Royaume‐Uni)

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Our understanding of the recolonization of northwest Europe in the period leading up to the Lateglacial Interstadial relies heavily on discoveries from Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK).

Why Bulk Discount for Multiple Offenders? A Lexical Local Justification

The Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
This paper offers an original non‐consequentialist justification for the ‘bulk discount’ given to offenders who are sentenced for multiple counts in a single proceeding, a discount that is available in most jurisdictions. Existing justifications for this practice face serious objections. I propose a new account, ‘Lexical Local Justification’.
