Using Aerial Photogrammetry to Estimate Body Condition and Assess Sexual Dimorphism in Narwhals
ABSTRACT The Arctic is warming rapidly, impacting ice‐dependent species and communities that rely on them for resources. Body condition indices (BCI) are widely used to assess individual health within populations. We adapted the methodology to improve accessibility for estimating narwhal body condition from drone footage, using body length, body width,

Protein Decoys, Alcohol, and Energy Intake: Testing a Mechanistic‐Ecological Model
ABSTRACT Ultra‐processed diets are associated with excessive energy intake, but studies examining the role of alcohol have produced conflicting results, despite the high energy density of ethanol. We constructed a mechanistic‐ecological model to explain this inconsistency and tested its predictions using population dietary data.

ABSTRACT First Nations in Canada are exercising inherent sovereignty through cannabis entrepreneurship, enacting community‐based regulatory frameworks and asserting jurisdictional authority over economic activities within their territories. Through analyzing 71 Canadian media articles, this study examines how First Nations governance innovation and ...

Long‐term chronologies constructed from individual bowhead baleen plates reveal stable isotope declines consistent with regional Arctic food web or productivity changes superimposed on global anthropogenic C and N inputs, while relatively stable hormone concentrations over the same period provide no evidence of a concomitant increase in physiological ...

Abstract Background Victimisation has been associated with self‐harm (with or without suicidal intent), but little is known about this association during young adulthood—a distinct developmental period. Further, not all individuals who experience victimisation will later engage in self‐harm, suggesting the influence of other factors.

The Inuit and Sovereignty: The Case of the Inuit Circumpolar Conference and Greenland
This paper addresses the positioning of the Inuit with regard to the institution of sovereignty within the broader context of an Arctic region that is becoming increasingly territorialized. First, the paper considers the Inuit Circumpolar Conference (ICC) and its emphasis on the need to think past a strict Westphalian conception of bounded state ...

Abstract Behavioral economic theory posits that the relative reinforcing value of alcohol (i.e., demand) prospectively predicts alcohol use behaviors, although this has rarely been examined longitudinally. This study examined bidirectional associations of alcohol demand with alcohol use and problems over time. Community adults (N = 1,395; Mage = 34.32,

Physiological changes during pregnancy can trigger or worsen dermatological conditions, yet evidence‐based guidance for safe management remains limited. In a cross‐sectional survey of 273 pregnant women, 33.7% reported having a skin disease, and 56% experienced worsening of symptoms.
