‘We all live well together now’: Ethics, ontology, and the face of the other « Nous vivons bien ensemble maintenant » : éthique, ontologie et visage de l'autre

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 31, Issue 3, Page 874-898, September 2025.
Ethics and ontology have become prominent concepts in recent anthropology, informing a variety of research endeavours. Despite their different approaches, agendas, and concerns, they share a central focus on alterity and the relationship between self and other: Who is the other? How should I relate to the other?

Dendroglyphs, Pictographs and Social Identity in the Wet Tropics Rainforest of Northeastern Australia

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, Volume 60, Issue 2, Page 119-131, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This research examines rock art and dendroglyphs in the Wet Tropics of northeast Australia to investigate their relationship to linguistic social identity. The region was selected for its complex socio‐cultural landscape, marked by a diversity of languages in a distinct, relatively small area.

Locating Traces of Arboreal Beings: Connecting the Tree and the Woodblock

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, Volume 60, Issue 2, Page 145-155, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Woodblocks for printmaking are multi‐perspectival communicators inscribed with layered narratives. The artistic process of cutting excavates the surface of a woodblock, making visible lesser‐seen traces of the past, reflective of the practice of archaeology.

A trial of direct control of pine engraver beetles on a small logging unit /

open access: yes, 1960
Laboratory tests and small-scale field trials have shown the insecticide lindane to be highly toxic to pine engraver beetles. On the basis of that information, the insecticide was applied to fresh logging slash heavily infested with pine engraver beetles at Challenge Experimental Forest in 1959. Costs were reasonable and no insurmountable problems were

Regional adaptation of integrated pest management to control invasive forest insects

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 23, Issue 5, June 2025.
Globalization is increasing the threat of invasive forest insects to ecosystems. Control efforts against the same pest species progressively occur across distant jurisdictions as integrated pest management (IPM) programs or tactics developed in one region are adopted by another region.

Restoring Historic Forest Disturbance Frequency Would Partially Mitigate Droughts in the Central Sierra Nevada Mountains

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Forest thinning and prescribed fire are expected to improve the climate resilience and water security of forests in the western U.S., but few studies have directly modeled the hydrological effects of multi‐decadal landscape‐scale forest disturbance.

Dead tree removal after drought mortality increases understory plant diversity in a mixed conifer forest

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Altered disturbance regimes during a time of rapid global change present challenges for decision‐making concerning ecosystem recovery. In the Sierra Nevada of California, USA, 129 million trees died due to severe drought from 2012 to 2017, raising concerns over forest ecosystem health and dead fuel loads available for future wildfires.

Acoustic communication in bark beetles (Scolytinae): 150 years of research

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 281-300, December 2024.
We review publications spanning 153 years of research on bark beetle bioacoustics—we summarize existing knowledge, identify gaps and propose avenues for future research in this field. At least five sound production mechanisms have been reported across 125 examined species of bark beetles, with elytro‐tergal, gular‐prosternal and vertex‐pronotum ...

Lightning Strike Simula tion for Studying Southern Pine Bark and Engraver Beetle Attacks

open access: yes, 1983
Endemic populations of the southern pine beetle (Dendroctonus frontalis Zimm.) and Ips spp. attacked loblolly pilnes (Pinus taeda L.) on which lightning strikes were simulated with detonating cord in the field. Southern pine beetles were reared in successive generations in these trees from fall 1981 through spring 1982; only Ips spp.
