An Introduction to the Rock Art of Khaybar

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Between 2020 and 2024, the Khaybar Longue Durée Archaeological Project recorded 2333 rock art panels around the oasis of Khaybar in northwest Arabia. This dataset documents changing visual expression in a previously under‐researched region. The rock art broadly follows chronological and stylistic patterns observed elsewhere in northern Arabia.

Information flow and the adoption of soil‐improving and water conservation measures, and household welfare: Insights from a randomized controlled trial in Uganda

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Extension services are designed to facilitate the flow of information from researchers to farmers. However, information failures continue to impede the diffusion of soil‐improving and water conservation technologies in Sub‐Saharan African countries. We use a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to examine the impact of an extension‐based campaign

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

Predator cues from jumping spiders modulate herbivore behaviour and reduce plant damage

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Jumping spider cues increase immobility and delay first reproduction in the aphid Myzus persicae. Spider cues reduce leaf consumption by chewing herbivores, indicating reduced herbivore pressure on plants. Jumping spider cues may mediate indirect effects across trophic levels by altering herbivore behaviour and plant–herbivore interactions.

Optimizing Larval Density for Efficient Bioconversion of Swine Manure Using Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens; Diptera: Stratiomyidae) Larvae

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Swine manure management poses significant environmental challenges, and black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens L. (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) larvae, offer a sustainable alternative by converting manure into insect biomass while reducing waste volume.

Local Solutions to Structural Issues: The Fetishization of Custom in Rural Development Interventions in Côte d'Ivoire

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the paradox of seeking local solutions in rural development when conflicts result from structural transformations of the agrarian economy driven by national political choices. Since the 1990s, participatory approaches inspired by neo‐institutionalist theories of local governance have encouraged development actors to view ...
