Are human‐altered landscapes reshaping carnivore niche spaces in the Trans‐Himalaya?

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding carnivore interactions under growing human pressures is crucial for conservation. We examined spatial and temporal niche structuring among snow leopards Panthera uncia, Himalayan wolves Canis lupus chanco, and red foxes Vulpes vulpes; while also incorporating free‐ranging dogs Canis lupus familiaris as a human‐subsidized mesopredator ...

The Integration of Norse‐Derived Terms in English: Effects of Formal Similarity1

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract Language change arising from language contact is a complex phenomenon. Peter Matthews encouraged researchers to consider it as firmly grounded in the behaviour of individual speakers. We apply this perspective to investigate the integration of Norse‐derived terms into medieval English, testing for the effect of their phonetic similarity to ...

Advanced circular statistics in biology: Multiple factors, interactions and repeated measures

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Circular data is common across biology and the wider sciences, but presents unique analytical challenges due to their wrapped structure, where endpoints coincide (e.g. 360° = 0°). This requires the use of specific statistical methods. Traditional tests like the Rayleigh and Watson U2 tests remain widely used, but lack flexibility in handling ...

A Non-Smooth Numerical Optimization Approach to the Three-Point Dubins Problem (3PDP)

open access: yesAlgorithms
This paper introduces a novel non-smooth numerical optimization approach for solving the Three-Point Dubins Problem (3PDP). The 3PDP requires determining the shortest path of bounded curvature that connects given initial and final positions and ...

Edge Sharpness Does Not Vary Between Palaeolithic Flake Technologies, With the Possible Exception of Levallois Débitage

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Investigating why hominins adopted particular flake technologies during the Mid‐to‐Late Pleistocene is essential to understanding patterns of lithic innovation. This period witnessed the emergence of Levallois technologies (~350–250 ka) and later blades, each “replacing” earlier forms.

Update on diagnosis, nonpharmacological treatment and prevention of Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS)

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary The term Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS) has been used since 1999. As there are important differences, the terms Equine Squamous Gastric Disease (ESGD) and Equine Glandular Gastric Disease (EGGD) were introduced in 2015. Risk factors like dietary management, training regimens and drug side effects, as described for NSAIDs, predispose ...

Map and Archival Evidence of the Historical Avulsion of the Brahmaputra River

open access: yesThe Geographical Journal, EarlyView.
Short Abstract One of the world's great rivers, the Brahmaputra, avulsed—changed course—significantly sometime between the dates of 1765 and 1830. These are the dates of surveys by James Rennell (grey) and Richard Wilcox (black), both under the direction of the East India Company; no other surveys between these dates can refine the estimate of the ...
