Fragment Edges Benefit a Common Predator of Pollinators via Bottom‐Up Effects
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study investigated the hypotheses regarding the effects of habitat fragmentation on spider biomass and causing bottom‐up or top‐down effects on multi‐trophic relationships.

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 ...
