Assessing Conflict Potential Between Birds and Small‐Scale Fisheries in Lake Titicaca
ABSTRACT Globally, fisheries bycatch constitutes a threat to aquatic birds. However, while the threat is global, the threat from bycatch in inland fisheries, and from artisanal or small‐scale fishing, is particularly understudied. Here, we present the first attempt to map the vulnerability of birds to fisheries bycatch, and the conflict potential ...

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics
Abstract Improvements in software, parallel computing, global data sets, and laboratory flow‐laws help to develop the global Earth5 thin‐shell finite‐element model of Bird et al. (2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jb005460) into a benchmark study. All experiments confirm that modeled faults (other than megathrusts) have low effective friction of 0.085 ±

When maize is not the first choice: advances in paleodietary studies in the Archaeological Site Río Doncellas (Jujuy, Argentina) [PDF]
In this work we present new values of stable isotopes of carbon (δ13Cco and δ13Cap) and nitrogen (δ15N) measured in a sample of 13 human individuals found in the Río Doncellas Archaeological Site (Late Period or Regional Developments, ca. 1000 AD-1450 AD)

Onko puna-apilassa potentiaalia ?
Puna-apilalla on biologisen typensidontakykynsä ansiosta keskeinen rooli luomutuotannossa. Samasta syystä sen kiinnostavuus tavanomaisena viljelykasvina todennäköisesti lisääntyy tulevaisuudessa typpilannoitteiden kallistuessa energian hinnan nousun myötä. Puna-apilan viljelyvarmuutta pidetään kuitenkin tunnetusti heinäkasveja heikompana.

Giant Porphyry Copper Deposits Caused by a Slab Jamming in the Mantle Transition Zone
ABSTRACT Two giant porphyry copper deposits in the Southern Central Andes formed during the Miocene–Pliocene transition when a bend in the subducting Juan de Fernández hotspot chain jammed in the mantle transition zone, causing mega‐scale slab‐kinking. This geometry implies mechanical resistance that caused East–West compression and eventually a thrust‐
