Ghaznavid hunting culture developed through the interaction of Turkic‐Islamic political traditions, Persianate models of kingship and local ecological settings. Rather than constituting a fully formalized institution, Ghaznavid hunting practice

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Integrating comparative spectrometry, image analysis, and thermal modeling, we reveal that (1) females optimize crypsis via background matching, (2) males prioritize high‐contrast disruptive patterning at a significant thermoregulatory cost (reduced solar heat gain), and (3) habitat‐specific monomorphism in Diploderma slowinskii underscores ecological ...

Spatial and seasonal patterns of potential orchard pollinators across a Lake Ontario gradient
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Potential pollinator captures varied by season, trap height and distance from Lake Ontario, indicating that flower visitors were not evenly distributed during apple bloom. Several common bee genera, including Lasioglossum, Agapostemon, Andrena and Apis, overlapped more closely with apple bloom than the dominant retained fly genus, Toxomerus.

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

Dynamic Wave Trains: A Procedural Approach to Spatially Varying Ocean Synthesis
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.In this paper, we present a high performance procedural model capable of synthesizing and rendering a virtually infinite ocean. Our method exhibits spatial variations as the orientations, speed and choppiness of the waves is parametrized for each frequencies and each point in space. The provided visual abstract exhibits a sunset rendering of a large 40

Assessing responses of reef island seabirds to environmental and anthropogenic drivers
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Tropical insular ecosystems face escalating, cumulative impacts of land‐ and sea‐based ecological threats that jeopardize the long‐term sustainability of their native communities. This joint vulnerability is epitomized by reef island seabirds, which are exposed to reef decline and coastal erosion driven by climate change, reduction in prey ...
