UNIQAT: An open‐source toolkit for reproducible image quality assessment in marine surveys

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Modern marine surveys generate tens of thousands of underwater images per expedition, yet many are unusable due to image quality deterioration. Manual quality screening is labour‐intensive, subjective and inconsistent across observers and teams, hindering reproducible science, creating large backlogs of unprocessed imagery, and limiting real ...

Bridging the Late Antique Gap in Northwest Arabia: New Archaeological Evidence on the Occupation of Wādī al‐Qurā (al‐ʿUlā [AlUla], Saudi Arabia) Between the Third and Seventh Centuries CE

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2019, the Dadan Archaeological Project (CNRS/RCU/AFALULA) identified a Late Antique village 1 km south of ancient Dadan in the al‐ʿUlā valley (northwest Saudi Arabia). Three excavation seasons at this site (2021–2023) have uncovered a massive building constructed in the late third or early fourth cent.

Conservation Priority Areas for Endemic and Threatened Bird Species in the Brazilian Amazon Under Climate Change: A Multifaceted Approach

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Climate change is projected to substantially erode taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional diversity of endemic and threatened birds in the Brazilian Amazon by 2100. Integrating these dimensions with climate refugia revealed priority conservation areas, particularly in the eastern Amazon, highlighting where conservation efforts can best safeguard ...

A theory of political divergence and gradual institutional change

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Why do some societies succeed in breaking away from historical traditions while others remain trapped? This paper proposes a formal theory to investigate the interaction between short‐run and long‐run political dynamics, highlighting a co‐evolution of political institutions and social structures.

The Construction of an Environmental Villain: A Discourse Analysis of Upland Maize Farming in Thailand

Asia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the mid‐2010s, Thai public discourse has villainised upland maize cultivation in northern Thailand for deforestation and environmental degradation through the popular imagery of bald mountains. The attention has prompted a new wave of land‐use interventions urging upland smallholders to replace maize with trees and perennials.

Modelling Patterns of Past Inundation Processes Combining Geoarchaeology and Morphometric Hydrological Analysis in the Shashe‐Limpopo Basin, South Africa

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riverine and valley systems across the globe have been central to the development of past urban centres. By AD 900, the Shashe and Limpopo Rivers seem to have facilitated the interaction and integration of early farming communities in southern Africa. This paper focuses on the application of geoarchaeological perspectives made available by the
