Embedded Interactions and Selective Disclosure: Network Effects on Conversations aboard Skylab
How do absent others influence our interactions? We argue in this paper that interactions are embedded within networks formed by chains of specific relationships between known third parties. The anticipation of future interactions with external others conditions our interpretation of the current situation and affects our behavior in the interaction. We

Evaluating the network structure of different Neotropical plant-plant interactions [PDF]
Plant species can be used as hosts by other plant species, both in antagonistic interactions (e.g., parasitism), and in commensal interactions (e.g., epiphytism).

Asiatic black bears in Russia face conservation threats such as habitat destruction and fragmentation, which exacerbate food shortages caused by crop failures. This study explores an innovative approach to rehabilitating bears that abandon hibernation in mid‐winter due to extreme exhaustion by providing supplemental food near their den sites.
