Insights into Red Deer Ecology during the Late Epigravettian: New isotopic evidence from Riparo Tagliente (Italian Prealps)

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Late Glacial marked a shift from the cold conditions of Greenland Stadial‐2 (GS‐2) to the warmer phases of Greenland Interstadial‐1 (GI‐1), enabling the reoccupation of Alpine regions by Late Palaeolithic hunter‐gatherers.

Effects of climate on size structure and functioning of aquatic food webs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In aquatic food webs, the role of body size is notoriously strong. It is also well known that temperature has an effect on body size. For instance, Bergmann’s rule states that body size increases from warm to cold climates.

Late Quaternary climatic variability in the Eastern Mediterranean recorded in Hermes Cave, Corinth Rift, Greece

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Greek peninsula lies at the intersection of major atmospheric circulation systems, making it a key location for reconstructing past climate variability in the Eastern Mediterranean. In this study, we present a new high‐resolution multi‐proxy speleothem record from Hermes Cave, located on the shoulder of the Corinth Rift in southern Greece.

Impact of Nitrogen Deposition on Carbon and Nitrogen Cycling in Peatlands Under Land‐Use Change

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increasing nitrogen (N) deposition significantly alters carbon and N dynamics in peatlands by affecting microbial processes, enhancing greenhouse gas emissions and nutrient leaching into adjacent waters. However, how peatland conversion for agriculture and forestry influences the fate of added N under elevated atmospheric deposition remains ...

Effects of sex and altitude on nutrient, and carbon and nitrogen stable isotope composition of the endangered shrub Baccharis concinna G.M. Barroso (Asteraceae)

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica
Previous ecological studies of dioecious plant species have found that female plants preferentially occur at lower altitudes where there are typically better nutritional conditions, while male plants often occur in less favorable sites.

Applicability of the steady‐state oxygen stable isotope method for estimating metabolism in low‐productivity Arctic lakes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolism is a key property of lake ecosystem functioning, but logistical challenges make it difficult to estimate across remote regions. The steady‐state dissolved oxygen (DO) stable isotope method (18O method) estimates metabolism from discrete water samples and thus enables large‐scale surveys.

Arsonic Acid Functional Polymers Enable Stabilization of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles in Aqueous Solution

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Arsonic acid containing diblock copolymers are developed to incorporate arsonic acid moieties for surface anchoring to IONPs, along with water soluble PEG blocks to impart colloidal stability in aqueous environments. The resulting polymer‐coated IONPs are evaluated for stability in physiological media and cytocompatibility.

Microbially driven organic carbon cycling at the land−sea interface: Advances and an integrated study framework

open access: yesmLife, EarlyView.
Abstract The land−sea interface is a vital component of global biogeochemical cycles, where microorganisms drive the cycling of carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur. This review synthesizes the research progress from representative land−sea interfaces to elucidate how the microbial community structure and metabolic function influence the mobilization ...

The Association of Pregnancy and Scurvy in Indigenous Women and Their Children From the Late Holocene in California (USA)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Limited evidence of nutritional deficiencies has been identified in bioarchaeological studies of Native California populations, although isotopic and ethnohistoric research provides evidence of regional, seasonal, and cultural variability in food shortages.
