Cultural traits as units of analysis. [PDF]
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci, 2010 Cultural traits have long been used in anthropology as units of transmission that ostensibly reflect behavioural characteristics of the individuals or groups exhibiting the traits. After they are transmitted, cultural traits serve as units of replication in that they can be modified as part of an individual's cultural repertoire through processes such ...

Attribution of detected changes in streamflow using multiple working hypotheses [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2014 This paper revisits a widely cited study of the Boyne catchment in east Ireland that attributed greater streamflow from the mid-1970s to increased precipitation linked to a shift in the North Atlantic Oscillation.
