Do cultural taboos regulate hunting in transitioning Indigenous communities? The case of the Idu Mishmi of Northeast India

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract There is rising recognition of resource‐use rights of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs) within wildlife conservation. Historically, sociocultural institutions ensured wildlife sustainability in many IPLC areas. However, the future viability of such institutions is uncertain as IPLCs change in response to external pressures and ...

Detecting the 21 cm Signal from the Cosmic Dark Ages

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The cosmic “dark ages” is the period between the last scattering of the cosmic microwave background and the appearance of the first luminous sources, spanning redshifts 1100 ≳  z  ≳ 30.

Anthropic reasoning in multiverse cosmology and string theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Anthropic arguments in multiverse cosmology and string theory rely on the weak anthropic principle (WAP). We show that the principle, though ultimately a tautology, is nevertheless ambiguous.

Participatory mapping and Nature's Contributions to People: Insights from the Amazon Delta

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding how traditional and coastal communities perceive and interact with nature is key to promoting inclusive conservation. This article examines human–nature interaction in the fishing village of Jubim, located in the Marajó Archipelago, delta of the Amazon River, Brazil.

The ΛCDM-NG Cosmological Model: A Possible Resolution of the Hubble Tension

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We offer a cosmological model based on conventional general relativity (no speculative physics) that may resolve the Hubble tension. A reanalysis of the foundation of the Lambda-CDM model shows that general relativity alone does not specify what fraction

Generalized holographic cosmology: low-redshift observational constraint

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
Four-dimensional cosmological models are studied on a boundary of a five-dimensional Anti-de Sitter (AdS 5) black hole with AdS Reissner-Nordström and scalar charged Reissner-Nordström black hole solutions, where we call the former a “Hairless” black ...

Was Newtonian Cosmology Really Inconsistent? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This paper follows up a debate as to the consistency of Newtonian cosmology. Whereas Malament (1995) has shown that Newtonian cosmology *is* not inconsistent, to date there has been no analysis of Norton’s claim (1995) that Newtonian cosmology *was ...

Caring with forests: Human and more‐than‐human care in forest occupations in Germany

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing on ongoing ethnographic and participatory action research within forest occupations in Germany, this paper develops the concept of ‘caring with forests’ to theorise the mutual, multidimensional relationships of care that emerge between humans and more‐than‐human beings in environmental protest settings.

Looking at Infrared Background Radiation Anisotropies with Spitzer. II. Small Scale Anisotropies and their Implications for New and Upcoming Space Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Spitzer-based source-subtracted cosmic infrared background (CIB) fluctuations at arcminute-to-degree scales indicate the presence of new populations, whereas subarcminute power arises from known z  ≲ 6 galaxies.
