Characterization of a Portable Computed Tomography System for In Situ Analysis of Wooden Sculptures in Cultural Heritage

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Portable X‐ray computed tomography (portable CT) has become an important tool for the non‐destructive investigation of cultural heritage objects, particularly when in situ analysis is required. This work presents the experimental characterization and application of a transportable cone‐beam CT system designed for the inspection of large and ...

Pollinator diversity and host specificity in threatened Encephalartos cycads and their implications for co‐extinction and species recovery

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The highly threatened African cycad genus Encephalartos faces severe threats such as habitat loss and poaching. In addition, the lack of sexual recruitment due to the absence of pollinators (pollinator collapse) has emerged as another major threat.

Social network dynamics under experimental manipulations of predation risk and food abundance in wild rock hyraxes

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study combines replicated experimental manipulation, social network analysis, network permutations and meta‐analysis to disentangle active from spatially‐induced changes in animal network structure in the wild. It reveals that short‐term environmental changes primarily alter space use, with limited effects on social structure.
