Greater sage‐grouse dynamics are influenced by winter temperature rather than indices of grazing, drought, and breeding season weather in a northern Great Plains population

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We evaluated the impacts of grazing, climatic variability, and vegetation productivity on the population dynamics of a northern Great Plains greater sage‐grouse population. We found winter temperature influenced annual population growth rates, but did not detect influences of drought, breeding season weather, vegetation productivity or short‐term ...

A High‐Resolution Method Using Individual Females to Assess the Competitiveness of Sterile Drosophila suzukii Males Under Semi‐Controlled Conditions

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
A high‐resolution, novel method to assess the sexual competitiveness of sterile mass‐reared Drosophila suzukii males is calibrated and illustrated using different laboratory and wild type strains. Isolation of individual females after semi‐controlled cage competition tests and subsequent observation of their progeny showed that sterile males from two ...

Aristocratic identification in Felix’s Life of Guthlac

open access: yesEarly Medieval Europe, EarlyView.
Recent scholarship often sees high‐born monastics and clerics in early Christian England as part of the aristocratic class.

Fine‐scale genetic structure in co‐operatively breeding Palmchats (Dulus dominicus) suggests mixed kinship in compound nests

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Fine‐scale genetic structure in animal populations can create opportunities for both kin‐directed co‐operation and kin competition. Knowledge of kinship is therefore key to understanding the selective pressures shaping sociality as well as the effects of social behaviour on local genetic structure.

Belief in a Norm‐Consistent Climate Policy Conspiracy Theory and Non‐Normative Collective Action

open access: yesJournal of Applied Social Psychology, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 343-358, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Believing in conspiracy theories is connected to support for non‐normative collective action. One explanation might be that this is due to both being non‐normative. Alternatively, it might be the case that non‐normative action appears justified based on what conspiracy theories alleging harm to a personally relevant group due to powerholders ...

An investigation into the diet of elephant fish (Callorhinchus milii) in the waters of Aotearoa/New Zealand

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chondrichthyans (sharks, rays and chimaeras) are increasingly understood to be an important part of ocean ecosystems, but their ecological role is unclear. Callorhinchus milii (elephant fish) is a chimaera species endemic to Aotearoa/New Zealand and southern Australian waters.
