A Chance‐Constrained Model for a Production Routing Problem With Uncertain Availability of Vehicles

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Production Routing Problem (PRP) is a complex integrated problem that allows for the achievement of competitive advantages, such as better management of inventory, reduction in operational costs and lead times, improvement in efficiency and customer service, and better response to market changes.

Optimizing Household Waste Recycling Centre Network Reorganization in Hampshire

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Local councils across the UK are facing sustained financial pressures, and Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) are being increasingly considered for closure to reduce expenditure. In 2024, Hampshire County Council, which operates the largest HWRC network in the UK, proposed closing either five or twelve existing sites.

The niche variation hypothesis predicts hunting returns across human cultures

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The niche variation hypothesis (NVH) proposes that a broader population niche arises from greater individual specialization. Despite decades of empirical testing, research remains constrained to non‐human foragers, and the generality of NVH may extend beyond wildlife. The analysis of > 8000 hunting records from 12 human societies across four continents

Ecological significance of fruit displays in Myrtaceae: relationship between fruit colour, maturation stage, attractiveness and seed germination

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Fruit colour has long fascinated scientists and is widely considered an evolutionary adaptation to attract both avian and mammalian frugivores. While fleshy fruits play a key role in plant–animal interactions by promoting seed dispersal, the functional significance of colour variation, particularly multicoloured displays during ripening, remains poorly

Population recovery of an endangered macaw enhances long‐distance seed dispersal via stomatochory

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal by large, mobile vertebrates plays a key role in shaping plant spatial dynamics and community structure. However, how variation in animal population size influences the magnitude and spatial scale of seed dispersal remains poorly understood.
