AGRICULTURE IN A SOCIALIST CITY: Towards an Alter‐Urban Political Ecology

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban political ecology has developed as a critique of capitalist urbanization. This article develops the concept of alter‐urban political ecology to define urban environments emerging not from capitalist urbanization but from efforts to transform it. Drawing on archival research and ethnographic fieldwork in five urban farms in socialist Cuba,

Geological Substrate Is Related to Tooth Senescence and Population Dynamic: The Case Study of Alpine Chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra L.)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
In Alpine chamois, the complete wear of the first molar coincides with the beginning of senescence and the progress of tooth wear on calcareous substrate is slower than the one on other substrates, increasing life expectancy. Thus, the first molar wear may actually be considered as an effective descriptor of senescence stage.

Small Object Detection Method for Bioimages Based on Improved YOLOv8n Model

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study proposes a small object detection method for bioimages based on an improved YOLOv8n model. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach effectively enhances detection precision, recall, and mAP50, offering a novel solution for the technical challenges in biological microscopy research.

Effects of Vector Density on Blood Parasite Spread and Health Consequences for Avian Hosts: An Experimental Epidemiology Blueprint

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
In an experimental epidemiology setup, groups of pigeons were exposed to different numbers of infective malaria vectors. Vector number explained the speed of transmission, the final prevalence, and changes in host behavior. ABSTRACT Vector density plays a critical role in the transmission dynamics of vector‐borne diseases and thus in their health and ...

On Being Receptive: Listening and Compliance on a University Campus

American Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How should you listen when you hear about harms in interpersonal life, such as sexual harassment or anti‐Black racism? Across a range of sites on a university campus, from bystander intervention workshops to reporting systems for sex‐ and gender‐based misconduct, we spotlight the way “listening” is mobilized to address harms of various kinds ...

Phosphorus Availability and Uptake following a Maize-Pigeon Pea Rotation under Conservation Agriculture

Agronomy
Soils on many smallholder farms in Southern Africa are severely depleted in plant nutrients, in particular phosphorus (P), following years of maize monocropping with little or no fertilizer input.

Archaeometric Characterization of Submerged Sasanian Stucco From Ghaleh Guri, Western Iran

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Ghaleh Guri archaeological site, a late Sasanian site with a building complex dated to 591–628 ce, lies along an ancient road linking the western Zagros to Mesopotamia. Its architectural remains, adorned with stucco, faced annual river floods yet remained stable for centuries.
