Application of Photogrammetry and Mesh Comparison in the Study of Human Cranial Morphology
International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Photogrammetric methods for generating three‐dimensional (3D) models are becoming increasingly widespread in the fields of archaeology and biological anthropology. In particular, the study of the variability of skull morphology (generated by the ancestry of the individual or by the application of certain cultural practices) using 3D models is ...

People are good at stewardship
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Environmental sciences and policy have long been framed on the premise that environmental harm is an expression of human nature rather than a product of specific historical and political arrangements.

Needle in a haystack: Holocene history of European larch in Central Europe revisited
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Defining nativity of species is crucial for their management. However, this is a complex task, especially for species that have been used and spread by humans for a long time. We combined paleoecological records with extensive genetic data to investigate the Holocene history of European larch—a common and economically important tree species in Central ...

Evolution of photoperiod insensitivity drove the westward expansion of broomcorn millet
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.This research highlights how ancient farming communities adapted crops to challenging environments, enabling the spread of agriculture across Eurasia. By demonstrating that broomcorn millet evolved reduced sensitivity to day‐length, the study explains how this crop could support food production in regions with short growing seasons and long summer days.
