Implications of heterogeneous embankment conditions for geoelectrical investigations on dams: A case study at Mactaquac Dam, Canada

Near Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) has been shown to be effective for surveying and monitoring dams, due to the method's sensitivity to moisture content and relevant physical properties (e.g., porosity). Automated ERT systems, capable of time‐lapse monitoring, can be used to detect variations in ground conditions.

Reconstructing Early Human Subsistence in Near Oceania: New Insights From Matenkupkum and Matenbek

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The colonization of New Ireland ~44–40,000 years ago represents the earliest evidence of human occupation in Near Oceania. Yet, the precise impacts of climatic changes on subsistence strategies during the Late Pleistocene, Last Glacial Maximum, and Holocene remain poorly understood.

The Association of Pregnancy and Scurvy in Indigenous Women and Their Children From the Late Holocene in California (USA)

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Limited evidence of nutritional deficiencies has been identified in bioarchaeological studies of Native California populations, although isotopic and ethnohistoric research provides evidence of regional, seasonal, and cultural variability in food shortages.

Benthic megafauna and the functioning of macroalgal forests and urchin barrens

Oikos, EarlyView.
Two temperate rocky reef food‐web models, representing the trophic diversity of the Mediterranean rocky reef communities, were built for the two stable states: macroalgal forests and barren grounds, which are characterized by opposite amounts of erect macroalgal biomass.

Seasonal variation of leaf functional traits in sub‐Arctic plants

Oikos, EarlyView.
Leaf functional traits are informative of plant fitness and functions in ecosystems. These functional traits and their variation across geographic extents are much studied but less is known about their temporal variation over a growing season. Here, we provide an analysis of the seasonal variation in six leaf functional traits of 11 sub‐Arctic vascular
