Moving in Cycles: Explaining the Failure of Militarization to Address Illegal Mining in Ghana
ABSTRACT Mining contributes to Ghana's economic growth but also imposes significant social costs—land dispossession and unemployment—which have fueled the rise of illegal mining (galamsey). Galamsey, which intensified during the commodity boom of the 2010s, provides livelihoods while simultaneously worsening environmental degradation and social ...

ABSTRACT Stature estimation of skeletal remains is mostly dependent on the lengths of long bones, but these are often unavailable in fragmented or commingled assemblages. To overcome this obstacle, we present an extension of the unisex stature estimation models for high‐altitude Andean populations presented by Anzellini and Toyne (2020) using femoral ...

Abstract Pastoral practices remain a widespread economic activity across European mountain regions. However, the viability of this activity may be threatened by the recovery of large wild vertebrates associated with passive rewilding, leading to the so‐called human–wildlife conflicts.

By using probabilistic models to predict contacts as a function of spatially and temporally varying environmental conditions, we show that population‐level conditions at the time of disease introduction can structure opportunities for transmission within each population.

Care Without Justice: Moral Obligation and Food Politics in an Authoritarian Moment
ABSTRACT Contemporary food politics is often grounded in a normative alignment of care and justice, in which attentiveness to vulnerability, embodiment, and lived experience is understood to reinforce commitments to equity, redistribution, and institutional responsibility. This synthesis has been central to food justice scholarship.

Three closely linked X‐chromosomal genes potentially control sex determination in Cannabis sativa
Summary Sex determination mechanisms in dioecious plants remain poorly understood yet offer an excellent model system to study genetic changes underlying morphological evolution. We investigated the genetic basis of sex determination in Cannabis sativa, combining quantitative trait locus mapping in a segregating population, comparative transcriptomics ...
