Hunting in the Ghaznavid State: Courtly Culture, Military Practices and Political Power

History, EarlyView.

Graduated Involution Under Compressed Modernity: Differences in the Summer Holidays as a Phase in the Public Life‐Course in Shanghai, China

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper develops the concept of graduated involution to explain how summer holidays have been reconstituted from leisure time into an educational arena for Chinese families under conditions of compressed modernity. Based on qualitative data from 32 households in Shanghai, including interviews and child self‐recordings, we analyze how ...

Extinction Debt Paid Off: The Demise of the European Polecat (Mustela putorius) in NE Iberia

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We studied a vanishing polecat population for a decade, until its ultimate demise, using camera trap and roadkill data, landscape descriptors and dietary and toxicological analyses.Polecat favoured farmland and avoided forests and water bodies occupied by the invasive American mink.

Water Use Behavior of Individual Birds: Ring Ouzels in an Arid High‐Mountain Ecosystem

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Water is a limiting resource for birds in arid ecosystems. Individual birds differ strongly in how they use shared water sources, with drinking behavior increasing with temperature. Behavioral differences, hierarchy, and social context ultimately shape unequal access to water within the population. ABSTRACT Water availability strongly constrains animal

Comparative Efficiency of eDNA, Camera Traps and Scat Surveys to Detect a Semi‐Aquatic Mammal Across Multiple Catchments

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Monitoring semi‐aquatic mammals is essential for their conservation, but it is made difficult by their elusive lifestyle and generally low abundance. Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) monitoring has traditionally relied on scat surveys, but eDNA and camera‐trapping are emerging as promising alternatives.
