Evidence of glass bead‐making in the early Islamic Iberian Peninsula
Abstract Glass beads from two Islamic archaeological sites in the Tagus valley in central Spain were selected and analysed by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS), and a subset of samples (n = 6) was analysed for Pb isotopes by multicollector thermal ionization mass spectrometry (MC‐TIMS).

The shrew Crocidura iculisma has a fragmented distribution limited to southwestern Europe. This study analyzes changes in its geographic distribution including palaeontological and modern data, revealing a significant reduction its range during the Holocene due to competitive exclusion by Crocidura russula and climatic changes.

Abstract Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX) enables the determination of the composition and structure of tiny calcified remains occasionally recovered during burial excavations. To deepen the practical application of this technique, we performed SEM/EDX analysis on three different tiny ...

The main drivers influencing the passive increase in tree species diversity suggest a primary role of diminishing forest exploitation in this recovery process, fine‐tuned by climatic changes. This ecological scenario has particularly favoured animal‐dispersed tree species with higher drought tolerance, which mostly led the diversity increase.

Plant phylogenetic diversity influences arthropod communities in tropical forest restoration plots
We assessed the impact of plant phylogenetic diversity on arthropod communities in 12 experimental restoration plots with either high or low plant phylogenetic diversity. Arthropods with different feeding habits (herbivores, predators, pollinators, and detritivores) were collected after 1 and 3 years and were identified as morphospecies or operational ...
