Phenological responses to climate change: advancing mating and calving in wild and semi‐captive Caspian red deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Species respond to climate change through phenological and spatial shifts. Herbivorous mammals, in particular, are vulnerable due to their direct dependence on seasonal vegetation and the potential misalignment between their reproductive cycles and shifting food availability.

Variation in food availability affects the population age structure of Atlantic puffins Fratercula arctica in the Faroe Islands

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Across their entire Atlantic breeding range, Atlantic puffins Fratercula arctica have experienced decreases in food availability, often leading to population declines. The species is one of the most numerous seabirds in Føroyar (the Faroe Islands, in English) but has faced apparent, unquantified population declines.

Tradeoffs between brain and digestive tissues across elevations in Typhlomys daloushanensis: evidence for sexual dimorphism

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
To cope with highly stochastic and/or heterogeneous environmental conditions, animals must balance energy resource allocation across physiological processes. The digestive tract and brain exhibit structural variations under strong developmental and selective pressures that vary across environmental gradients both between and within species.

Diet, phenology and body size shape nutrient release by songbirds

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animals can dramatically alter ecosystem structure and function through the cycling and transport of nutrients in their waste. While birds are particularly capable of influencing nutrient cycles due to their high mobility, abundance, metabolism and functional diversity,

125 years of exploration and research at Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK) 125 ans d'exploration et de recherches à Gough's Cave (Somerset, Royaume‐Uni)

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Our understanding of the recolonization of northwest Europe in the period leading up to the Lateglacial Interstadial relies heavily on discoveries from Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK). Gough's Cave is the richest Late Upper Palaeolithic site in the British Isles, yielding an exceptional array of human remains, stone and organic artefacts, and butchered ...

The Gender of Fossil Fuels: Oil and Domestic Perils in Mandate Palestine

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explores the gender dynamics behind the rise of kerosene – an oil derivative – as the main domestic fuel in Mandate Palestine. It argues that these dynamics were constitutive in determining who began to use oil, where and for what purposes, in turn demonstrating that women in Palestine were the promoters and targets of a campaign ...
