Beyond Manoeuvre Theory for European Defence

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article contributes to the debate about European defence in the light of the Russo‐Ukraine war and growing doubts about US commitment to Europe. It argues that Europeans need to fundamentally relearn the ability to imagine military strategy from a European viewpoint.

Sailing Through Time: Building Pacific Maritime Resilience

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the Pacific Blue Shipping Partnership (PBSP), an ambitious initiative aimed at decarbonising maritime transport across Oceania. The study explores the cultural, historical and technological aspects of wind‐propelled shipping in the Pacific.

Theia: An end‐to‐end edge‐AI mobile framework for high‐throughput field phenotyping and on‐device geometric morphometrics

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Geometric morphometrics (GM) is widely used to study phenotypic variation in ecological and evolutionary research, but the throughput of manual landmark digitization limits how large morphometric datasets can practically become, especially in field studies that would benefit from rapid on‐site feedback.

An integrated model of territory occupancy and mark‐recapture data for estimating spatial variation in survival

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Spatial variation in survival is central to understanding population dynamics and guiding conservation. However, assessing it is hard, since capture‐mark‐recapture (CMR) data required for such inference must be collected over large spatial extents, which is seldom possible.

Potential vs. Realized Large Carnivore Density: The Influence of Livestock on Carnivore Carrying Capacity Estimation

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
In an unfenced mixed‐use savanna landscape in Namibia, we compared realized densities of leopards and cheetahs estimated using spatial capture–recapture models with prey‐based carrying capacity predictions. Leopard densities exceeded predictions based on wild prey alone but closely matched livestock‐supplemented models, suggesting that vulnerable ...

Beyond the Individual: Multisite Population‐Level Consequences of Road Mortality on a Declining Mammal

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
We used a comparative study design to quantify population densities, structure, survival, cause‐specific mortality and female productivity in four West‐European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) populations, and to forecast the impact of road mortality on population viability.

Balancing Fire Regimes and Population Dynamics for the Conservation of a Microendemic Lizard From a Biodiversity Hotspot

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Disturbance from fire mediates a potential ecophysiological trade‐off between adult performance and juvenile recruitment in the microendemic lizard Ameivula jalapensis. While open, burned habitats enhance adult thermoregulation and condition, unburned patches remain critical for juvenile thermal optima.
