Challenges of Monitoring Endangered Bryde's Whales During a Period of Rapid Environmental Change
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Estimating population size is challenging for rare and elusive species that occur at low densities and are difficult to detect during sampling. We estimated the abundance of a Nationally critical whale species—Aotearoa New Zealand Bryde's whales—using a custom‐formulated POPAN model which incorporated transience to account for their complex residency ...

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.We used pattern recognition software to correct misidentifications in a 15‐year photographic database of the last, vulnerable West African giraffe population in Niger. After revealing substantial methodological errors that had inflated population estimates by nearly 19%, we corrected individual encounter histories and applied capture‐mark‐recapture ...

Survival Remains High in Griffon Vultures 40 Years After Reintroduction
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.The reintroduction of the Griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus) in French Grands Causses in 1981 is largely regarded as a significant translocation success. 40 years of quality data from intensive monitoring allows us to investigate the survival rates in this long‐lived population on the long term, but also to reflect on the crucial role of adaptive management

Trajectories of genetic risk across dimensions of alcohol use behaviors
Addiction, EarlyView.Abstract Background and aims Alcohol use behaviors (AUBs) manifest in a variety of normative and problematic ways across the life course, all of which are heritable. Twin studies show that genetic influences on AUBs change across development, but this is usually not considered in research identifying and investigating the genes linked to AUBs ...

Evaluating the efficacy of tagging adhesives for insect tracking
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Two‐part epoxy resin delivered the strongest RFID tag adhesion on carabid beetles, exceeding polyvinyl acetate, cosmetic latex and cyanoacrylate adhesives. Adhesive performance was consistent across Harpalus, Leistus and Poecilus; species effects were non‐significant, supporting a broadly applicable protocol for carabid RFID tagging studies.

An anatomy of worldmaking: Sukarno and anticolonialism from post‐Bandung Indonesia
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract This article analyzes the anticolonial worldmaking of postcolonial Indonesia's first president Sukarno, during Guided Democracy (1959–1965). Using worldmaking as a conceptual interface, the article offers three interconnected interventions.
