Warming increases trophic cascade strength in an aquatic food chain
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Using experiments and Bayesian dynamical modelling, we demonstrate that warming strengthens trophic cascades in an aquatic food chain through coordinated, temperature‐dependent shifts in predator, prey and resource traits. By tracing indirect effects to underlying mechanisms, our study shows how climate change can amplify predator impacts and ...

Does Inequality Blur Class Lines? Meritocratic Attitudes in Comparative Perspective
The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Scholars of inequality generally find that lower‐class individuals are more skeptical of meritocratic narratives that link economic success to individual work effort. However, past research has yielded inconclusive findings about how economic inequality affects meritocratic attitudes across different class groups.

Generalization of ρ-ideals associated with an m-system and a special radical class
Let ϕ≠S⊆R be an m-system of a ring R, and let ρ be a special radical. This study introduces the concept of S-ρ-ideals in noncommutative rings. This notion extends the previously studied ρ-ideals and can also be seen as a generalization of the right S ...

How much are you willing to pay to avoid lockdowns? Evidence from the real estate market
Real Estate Economics, EarlyView.Abstract In response to the COVID‐19 pandemic, numerous countries implemented lockdowns. In Victoria, Australia, a unique two‐tier system was employed, segregating areas with a Ring of Steel boundary and imposing additional restrictions within. This study focuses on the impact of lockdowns on housing prices and rents, exploring whether people are ...

Assessing the Presence, Pattern, and Environmental Correlates of Seasonal Skin Thickening in Anurans
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Histological sections, like that of the ventral pectoral skin of Lithobates pipiens, were measured to assess variation in skin thickness throughout the year in three North American anuran species. After correcting for individual body size, we test whether skin thickness changes throughout the year and which factors (environment or life history) explain

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.The gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus), a keystone species and ecosystem engineer, has declined by ~80% over the past century due to primarily habitat loss. In a 28‐year resurvey of federally protected Mobile County and state‐protected Baldwin County, we found tortoise populations persisted at ~59% and ~31% of sites, respectively, with significant ...
