Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract This paper explores the relationship between wetland ecosystems and prehistoric lakeshore settlements within the Lake Ohrid basin (a biodiversity hotspot) by considering plant food systems at Ploča Mičov Grad, North Macedonia. The mid‐fifth millennium (c.4555–4373 to 4437–4241 cal BCE) waterlogged assemblage contained a diverse spectrum of ...

Collagen organisation in the fibrous joint capsules in the digits of the human hand
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.The function of the finger joints is important for daily life. In this review of the literature, we consider the role of collagen and its organization within the fibrous finger joint capsules of the interphalangeal (IP) joints and investigate the relationships between collagen orientation and joint function. Abstract Normal function of the hand and, in

Low-dimensional modelling of flame dynamics in heated microchannels
, 2014 This paper presents simulations of stoichiometric methane/air premixed flames into a microchannel at atmospheric pressure. These simulations result from numerical resolutions of reduced-order models. Indeed, combustion control into microchannels would be

Extracting vitalities: Cuts in Indigenous women's bodies‐territories (Brazil)
Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract In this article, I explore the connections between the medicalization of childbirth and environmental devastation through Guarani‐Mbyá understandings of life and the living. I argue that the cuts made to Guarani‐Mbyá women's vaginas (episiotomies) in Brazilian hospitals are experienced and situated on the same cosmopolitical level as the cuts ...
