Beyond Manoeuvre Theory for European Defence
Global Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article contributes to the debate about European defence in the light of the Russo‐Ukraine war and growing doubts about US commitment to Europe. It argues that Europeans need to fundamentally relearn the ability to imagine military strategy from a European viewpoint.

Elevating the importance of Risk of Bias assessment for ecology and evolutionary biology
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Systematic reviews and meta‐analyses are key evidence synthesis methods for informing future research, interventions and policy. As the validity of their conclusions depends on the primary studies they synthesise, assessing the internal validity of the included studies is essential.

Spatial signatures of group cohesion
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Wildlife populations are undergoing unprecedented changes to their spatial distributions as a result of human activities. Innovative approaches are needed to document these changes, especially in cases where sampling is sparse. Here, we contribute to the tools available in spatial ecology by developing novel metrics based on the coefficient of

Spatially realistic dynamic N‐mixture models
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Dispersal is a complex ecological process that can be driven by the abiotic environment, density‐dependent processes and species mobility. Traditionally, dispersal has been studied with capture‐based data that are often limited in space and time. More recently, spatial dynamic N‐mixture models (i.e.

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.We compared genetic diversity and spatial genetic structure in the snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina; left panel), Blanding's turtle (Emydoidea blandingii; bottom right), and spotted turtle (Clemmys guttata; top right) sampled in areas of co‐occurrence across ~49,160 km2.

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.In an unfenced mixed‐use savanna landscape in Namibia, we compared realized densities of leopards and cheetahs estimated using spatial capture–recapture models with prey‐based carrying capacity predictions. Leopard densities exceeded predictions based on wild prey alone but closely matched livestock‐supplemented models, suggesting that vulnerable ...

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.We used a comparative study design to quantify population densities, structure, survival, cause‐specific mortality and female productivity in four West‐European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) populations, and to forecast the impact of road mortality on population viability.

Running towards: Labour market incentives for runaway slaves in the British Cape Colony, 1830–1838
Asia‐Pacific Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract Recent scholarship on slave escapes has increasingly emphasised economic motivation, but few studies have empirically investigated how market incentives influenced the decision‐making of enslaved individuals during transitions from coerced to wage labour.
