Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.Our work bridges the gap between skyrmion discovery and material design by demonstrating how atomic‐scale control of exchange interactions enables tunable skyrmion phase transitions in centrosymmetric magnetic metals. ABSTRACT Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected spin states that hold promise for shaping the future of electronics.

Kin recognition in rattlesnakes [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2004 Snakes are often regarded as the least social of all vertebrate groups, but this assumption stems from the fact that they are secretive and difficult to observe in nature, rather than direct evidence. Recent studies have revealed a surprising degree of social complexity in snakes.

Estimating actual versus detected road mortality rates for a northern viper
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2018 Mitigation of adverse effects of roads on wildlife benefits from a fundamental understanding of the number of animals killed by traffic. Road surveys are a key part in quantifying this mortality; however, without accounting for scavenging and observer ...

Drivers of tail evolution in squamates and their implications for the fossorial origin of snakes
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The axial skeleton serves as the primary structural support in all vertebrates and is subdivided into five distinct regions: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and caudal. Relaxation of constraints acting on the terminal end of the axial skeleton has led to remarkable variation in caudal vertebrae number across Squamata.
