Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Most studies of selection on breeding timing consider only first clutches. Using a 13‐year dataset of urban and forest great tits, we show that including second broods reshapes estimates of natural selection, revealing that early breeding is favoured through increased probability of multiple brooding and higher annual reproductive output.

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.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.

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.Recent years have seen landmark progress in our understanding of early Homo sapiens occupation of Europe, owing to new excavations and the application of new analytical methods. Research on British sites, however, continues to lag. This is because of limitations inherent in existing cave collections, and limited options for new fieldwork at known sites.
