We demonstrate that environmental filtering is the primary mechanism shaping bat communities across the Cerrado–Atlantic Forest ecotone. By integrating phylogenetic diversity, environmental gradients, and coevolutionary assembly models, our study provides new insights into the processes maintaining biodiversity in a globally important transition zone ...

Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.

And then there was us Et puis nous sommes apparus
In 1987, the academic conference ‘Origins and Dispersals of Modern Humans: Behavioural and Biological Perspectives’ was held in Cambridge, UK. Subsequently referred to as the ‘Human Revolution’ conference, this meeting brought together the most prominent academics working in the field of human origins, including archaeologists and palaeoanthropologists,

Effect of dust event timing on glacier runoff: sensitivity analysis for a Tibetan glacier [PDF]
The impact of the timing of dust deposition on glacier runoff was evaluated using a glacier mass-balance model with a newly improved scheme to track a dusted layer in a snow layer of a glacier.

Periglacial Environments as Failed Objects of Governance in Argentina’s National Glacier Inventory
What happens when scientists, dedicated to basic scientific research, are called forth to participate in politically fraught scenarios? We explore this question through a qualitative study of the intimate experiences of scientists who developed the first
