Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1976 The composition and density of meteoroids has been the subject of a number of investigations in recent years. Analysis of photographic meteor data have been presented by Jacchia et al (1967). Verniani (1964, 1967, 1969), Benyuch (1968, 1973, 1974), McCrosky and Ceplecha (1969) and others.

Stable Isotope Analysis as a Tool to Prevent Illicit Wildlife Trade of Songbirds in Brazil
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Feather isotopes provide clear differences between wild and captive songbirds in Brazil. Combining multiple isotopes improved classification accuracy and revealed individuals falsely declared as captive‐bred. These results demonstrate the potential of isotope analysis to detect wildlife laundering in the bird trade.

Large meteoroids belonging to the α-Capricornid meteoroid stream
, 2012 Several objects have been proposed as the parent body of the α-Capricornid meteoroidstream. Among them we can find the short period comets 141P/Machholz and 45P/Honda-Mrkos- Pajdusakova, but also asteroids such as (2101) Adonis, 2002 EX12(=169P/NEAT) and (9162) 1987 OA [1-5]. The debris produced by the fragmentation of the

Investigating relationships among strontium, barium, and seasonality in wild baboons
Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract Geochemical profiles of Australopithecus africanus and baboon teeth show fluctuating trace elements, possibly reflecting seasonal diets. Here we use laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometric measurements of calcium‐normalized strontium and barium ratios (Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca) and ion microprobe analyses of oxygen isotopes (δ18O ...

Provider Perceptions of Perinatal Mental Healthcare Access
Birth, EarlyView.Study methodology and conclusions: Primary barriers to care and action items for providers. ABSTRACT Background The consequences of untreated perinatal mental health conditions are well‐established, yet fewer than one in five women experiencing perinatal mental health distress receive treatment. Although recommendations for evidence‐based treatment are
