Variable social organization and breeding system of a social parrot revealed by genetic analysis

Ibis, EarlyView.
Social organization and contributions to reproduction vary widely within and between species that breed in groups. Such variation often arises from the process of group formation, which drives patterns of relatedness and hence the degree of social conflict and co‐operation between group members.

The role of local ecological knowledge in sustainable urban planning: perspectives from Finland

Sustainability: Science, Practice, & Policy, 2005
This paper is a study of the role of local ecological knowledge (LEK) as lay-expert knowledge in the urban land use planning process in Finland . The research addresses the importance of LEK, and the ways LEK is obtained and used.

On the correllation effect in Peierls-Hubbard chains

, 2002
We reexamine the dimerization, the charge and the spin gaps of a half-filled Peierls-Hubbard chain by means of the incremental expansion technique.

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

Ibis, 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.

Critical Casimir forces along the iso-fields

, 2013
Using quasi-exact numerical density-matrix renormalization-group techniques we calculate the critical Casimir force for a two-dimensional (2D) Ising strip with equal strong surface fields, along the thermodynamic paths corresponding to the fixed nonzero ...

Genome and transcriptome‐based identification and expression profiling of chemosensory gene families across developmental stages and tissues in Sirex noctilio (Hymenoptera: Siricidae)

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
The first draft genome of Sirex noctilio was produced. Fifteen S. noctilio transcriptomes were sequenced to study chemosensory gene expression patterns. SnocOR16 and SnocSNMP1 displayed tissue‐ and sex‐specific expression patterns. Abstract The Sirex woodwasp (Sirex noctilio; Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is among the most destructive invasive pests ...

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

Journal 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 ...
