Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lake sediments are natural archives of past environmental dynamics and how these systems have responded to past climate variability. Sediment geochemistry, governed by local geology and climate processes, is unique to each lake‐catchment and geochemical proxies must be validated for each study site.

Timing the Sacred: A Multi‐Step Chronological Framework for the Llullaillaco Inca Burial
Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Absolute radiocarbon dating offers high precision, but its application to historical contexts, such as the Inca civilization, requires a rigorous methodological approach. This research examines methods to enhance chronological accuracy through a case study of artifacts from the Llullaillaco Capacocha sacrifice.

Detection of zoonotic bacteria in wild Australian freshwater turtles
Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Freshwater turtles are long‐lived, abundant components of Australian aquatic ecosystems, yet little is known about the diversity and prevalence of zoonotic bacteria they may carry. In this study, we conducted one of the most comprehensive surveys to date of zoonotic microorganisms associated with wild Australian freshwater turtles.

Authoring Terrestrial Planets with Diffusion Models
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract To support the design and subsequent generation of terrestrial planets for use in the creative media, we propose a solution that employs a generative model trained on satellite data from planetary bodies with a defined solid surface, such as the Earth and Mars.

Risks of concealing environmental degradation
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Current practice seeks to conceal the visual impact of land‐use change (i.e., development). Six percent of development impact assessments in Australia and 14% of the World Bank's assessments recommend visual impact mitigation. This mitigation results in, for example, vegetated buffer strips alongside cleared agricultural areas and earthen ...

Does nature shape risk preferences? Evidence from Chile, Norway, and Tanzania
Economic Inquiry, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 568-590, April 2025.Abstract Does exposure to a more risky environment affect risk preferences? Going beyond single‐case study evidence, we report results from five surveys conducted in three countries and link this with administrative data to study whether a link between exposure and preferences is detectable and widespread. We find no evidence for endogenous preferences

The Great Dividing Range as a driver of genetic divergence in a low‐dispersing dragonfly
Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Population genomic analyses revealed low genetic differentiation and no discrete population structure across the Great Dividing Range, indicating widespread gene flow in Synthemis eustalacta. Genetic divergence was associated with environmental gradients, elevation and landscape resistance rather than geographic distance, supporting isolation by ...
