Stable Carbon and Nitrogen Isotope Analysis Explores Diverse Domestic Goose Management Practices in Medieval and Postmedieval Russia

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 537-553, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Studying goose domestication through archaeological finds has been challenging due to the similar skeletal morphology of the European domestic goose and its wild progenitor, the greylag goose (Anser anser). We analyzed stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotopes from bone collagen of subfossil domestic and potentially domestic geese to ...

3D Geometric Morphometric Analysis on Sexual Dimorphism in the Sella Turcica in Romanov Sheep Using CT Scan

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Three‐dimensional geometric morphometric analysis is a shape analysis method used to explain sexual dimorphism. In this context, a total of 13 anatomical landmarks were defined and analysed in the study, resulting in sex‐related shape variations. The study identified sex‐related morphological differences in the sella turcica structures of Romanov sheep

The caliph and the falcons: a ninth‐century history from Iceland to Iraq

Early Medieval Europe, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 299-322, May 2026.
In the late ninth and early tenth centuries, an extraordinary number of falcons were given to the ʿAbbāsid caliphs in Baghdad, many of which were white. Gifts from competing dynasties in the northern provinces of the Caliphate, at least some of these birds were almost certainly gyrfalcons from near the Arctic Circle.

EPAS1 is associated with human muscle fiber composition and endurance phenotypes

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, May 2026.
Abstract A recent study reported that endothelial PAS domain protein 1 (EPAS1; hypoxia‐inducible factor 2α) acts downstream of PGC‐1α to regulate the slow‐twitch muscle fiber program in mice, yet its role in human physiology and exercise adaptation remains unclear.

Do the Wettest Days Occur Together? A Global Analysis on Disentangling Precipitation Intensity From Seasonal Timing

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Current precipitation analysis focuses on extreme events or total amounts but misses a critical question: when does the majority of precipitation occur during the year? We introduce a framework that separates two fundamental aspects of precipitation patterns: how many of the wettest individual days contribute to annual totals versus what is ...
