A synthetic eco‐evolutionary proposal for the conservation of wild relatives of the olive tree
Societal Impact Statement Crop wild relatives (CWR) are valuable sources of genetic diversity for plant breeding. However, the identification of wild untapped genetic resources (i.e., unexploited in crops) is not always straightforward. We propose a methodology to guide the identification and conservation of these resources that integrates both genetic

Global meta‐analysis reveals urban‐associated behavioural differences among wild populations
Urbanization drives rapid phenotypic change, yet broad patterns of behavioural responses remain unclear. Using a global phylogenetic meta‐analysis, we show urban populations exhibit increased boldness, aggression, exploration and activity—especially in birds—highlighting consistent behavioural shifts and revealing major taxonomic gaps that limit our ...

Quantifying 3D hair volume on a human head remains highly subjective. We present a robust automated image analysis methodology based on comprehensive consumer perception. This approach translates multidimensional attributes into objective measurements, highly predictive of sensory and consumer evaluations. We now have a rigorous and accurate metric for

Diving Into Language Teacher Beliefs: Experience and Contexts in Plurilingual Classrooms
ABSTRACT This study investigates the pedagogical beliefs of French and English language teachers in a diverse, plurilingual context. Drawing on data from 57 pre‐service and in‐service teachers, it examines how beliefs vary according to teaching experience and target language (TL) taught in diverse educational settings.

Introduction to the Special Issue “The 2023 Swiss National Elections”
Abstract The 2023 Swiss federal elections took place in a multi‐issue context. Various international crises caused global uncertainty, which dominated media and social discourse during the election year. Ultimately, the election results strengthened the right wing, but not exclusively.

Abstract In the field of evolutionary biology, the selection of a phylogenetically representative sample is a crucial step to have a complete and accurate understanding of the studied group and the evolution of its traits. However, this step is often overlooked, and there is currently no objective way to assess the relevance of a sample for a given ...

Tri‐stereoscopic PeruSat‐1 imagery enables the simultaneous generation of 0.70 m‐resolution topography and spatially distributed Manning roughness maps, achieving 0.434 m vertical accuracy. Integrated into HEC‐RAS, these products provide consistent, high‐resolution inputs that improve hydraulic modelling and flood risk assessment in data‐scarce river ...

Rank‐based estimation of propensity score weights via subclassification
Abstract Propensity score (PS) weighting estimators are widely used for causal effect estimation and enjoy desirable theoretical properties, such as consistency and potential efficiency under correct model specification. However, their performance can degrade in practice due to sensitivity to PS model misspecification.
