Changing food availability and its effect on the heritability of offspring size in woodland passerine birds

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Vatka et al. investigated how changing food abundance affects evolutionary potential of offsprings' body size traits in two woodland passerines. Food availability increased over the 25‐year‐long study period, accompanied by increases in body mass.

Dynamic Capabilities for Circular Economy Innovations towards Net Zero: Acqua & Sole Case Study

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Circular economy innovations can support firms’ transition towards the ‘net‐zero target’, one of the key objectives that firms ought to pursue to face climate change. Dynamic capabilities are deemed pivotal to enhance circular economy innovations; however, little is known about which ones – and how – can contribute to reaching such objectives.

Loanwords and Linguistic Phylogenetics: *pelek̑u‐ ‘axe’ and *(H)a(i̯)g̑‐ ‘goat’1

Transactions of the Philological Society, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 116-136, March 2025.
Abstract This paper assesses the role of borrowings in two different approaches to linguistic phylogenetics: Traditional qualitative analyses of lexemes, and quantitative computational analysis of cognacy. It problematises the assumption that loanwords can be excluded altogether from datasets of lexical cognacy.

Linguistic Evidence Suggests that Xiōng‐nú and Huns Spoke the Same Paleo‐Siberian Language

Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract The Xiōng‐nú were a tribal confederation who dominated Inner Asia from the third century BC to the second century AD. Xiōng‐nú descendants later constituted the ethnic core of the European Huns. It has been argued that the Xiōng‐nú spoke an Iranian, Turkic, Mongolic or Yeniseian language, but the linguistic affiliation of the Xiōng‐nú and the ...

Relative Constructions in Classical/Epic Sanskrit

Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract While it is widely recognised that Sanskrit shows two major types of relative construction – one relative–correlative, the other similar to postnominal relative clauses in languages like English – it has not been established what the crucial syntactic distinctions are between these types, given the wide range of syntactic variation found in ...

Predicative Possession in Ukrainian and Intra‐Slavonic Language Contact1

Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract Ukrainian has two inherited syntactic forms for possessive have: a transitive one with a lexical have‐verb, and an intransitive, originally locative be‐construction. On the basis of four corpus studies, the article establishes their relative frequency in Middle Ukrainian writing (17th and 18th c.), Modern Ukrainian dialects (20th c.), and ...

Gateways, Funnels, and Stackers: How People Hide Property Ownership Through Offshore Structures

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How do wealthy individuals use offshore financial structures like shell companies to protect personal assets? And how is such offshore wealth structuring itself variably organized? Moving beyond conceptualizations of offshore as concerning only individual tax havens, this article investigates offshore wealth structuring as a fundamentally ...
