Contrastive ecoacoustic indices: Large‐scale global soundscape characterization with contrastive inference

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecoacoustics mainly aims at monitoring soundscapes by means of non‐invasive protocols. Despite the widespread adoption of machine and deep learning techniques, existing ecoacoustic models predominantly rely on supervised learning and, consequently, face two primary limitations: (1) the necessity of annotated data; and (2) the restriction to ...

Beyond Groups? Consociational Culture and the Representation of Cross‐Segmental Interests

Tree canopy shapes the survival of oak and beech saplings during the regeneration stage along an elevation‐driven temperature gradient

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 7, July 2026.
Forests are complex, multilayered systems in which canopy cover strongly influences understorey microclimates. Here, we show that the temperature‐buffering effect of the forest canopy affects tree regeneration differently among species along an elevation gradient in the French Pyrenees.

On the problem of continuity: a theory of culture beyond invention Le problème de la continuité : une théorie de la culture au‐delà de l'invention

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 365-383, June 2026.
Anthropologists, in common with social theorists more generally, have often understood social life as an emergent phenomenon grounded in practices of creativity and improvisation. Where stasis and continuity feature, these are often presented as illusory manifestations of underlying processes of ‘invention’, or as external impositions upon otherwise ...

Debt Concentration and the Tax Sensitivity of Leverage Concentration de la dette et sensibilité fiscale du levier financier

Contemporary Accounting Research, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 923-954, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT A concentrated debt structure can facilitate creditor coordination, which reduces the financial distress cost in a liquidity default but also increases the risk of a strategic default. Debt concentration affects the sensitivity of leverage to tax through these two forces.

Passive environmental DNA sampling: A review of current practices, limitations and future directions for biodiversity monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1535-1555, May 2026.
Abstract Passive environmental DNA (eDNA) sampling is rapidly emerging as a powerful alternative to active sampling methods (e.g. direct water sampling), with a rapidly growing diversity of tested approaches but little methodological convergence.
