Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Abstract Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is essential for sustaining neuronal metabolism and cognitive performance; however, the precise relationship between perfusion and cognition remains unclear. Although ageing and disease are associated with progressive declines in CBF and cognitive impairment, the acute effects of altered CBF under environmental ...

Radiolarian cherts and associated siliceous rocks of the Rhenish Massif and Harz Mountains, lower Carboniferous (Mississippian), Germany [PDF]
AbstractSiliceous sedimentary rocks are major constituents of the rock succession in the Central European part of the Kulm Basin (Mississippian) and crop out in the eastern Rhenish Massif and the western Harz Mountains. These rocks occur in five lithostratigraphical units: Oberrödinghausen Formation, subdivided into Kahlenberg Subformation (“Untere ...

Colorectal Cancer in Bhutan: Identifying Health System Gaps and Priorities
ABSTRACT Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is an emerging public health concern in Bhutan, a lower‐middle‐income country with a geographically challenging terrain and limited specialised oncology services. As the country undergoes an epidemiological and economic transition, CRC numbers are steadily increasing.

Two hydrological model configurations with contrasting snow process complexity were evaluated in a high‐alpine, snow‐dominated karst catchment (2014–2025) at Mount Zugspitze (Germany). Despite comparable discharge simulation performance and water balances, the models show substantial differences in internal process representation.

Land cover and elevation are shown to influence the proportion of stream source waters across glacial and non‐glacial streams. Groundwater makes up a large proportion of both early season and late season flow in most glacial and non‐glacial streams, while the timing of snow and ice melt is driven by the presence or absence of a glacier within the ...

Male vervet monkeys were more likely to lead group progressions than females or juveniles, especially during potentially riskier crossing situations, i.e., rivers. Dominant males who had not yet sired offspring were the most likely to lead progressions.

Perceived Social Intelligence and Human Compliance in Incidental Human–Robot Encounters
ABSTRACT This study examines how socially compliant robot behaviours, operationalized as body language and verbal cues, affect human perceptions of social intelligence and compliance with a quadruped robot during incidental human–robot encounters. Extending prior work that primarily focused on direct human–robot interactions, this study addresses the ...

Genetic and Ecological Management of Pacific Salmon Fisheries for the 21st Century
ABSTRACT Based on ecological adaptation theory, tremendous effort is being spent on measures that are eliminating salmon hatcheries and fishing opportunities with the intention of protecting wild runs deemed to be of particular genetic importance to the survival of the species.
