Isolation, marine transgression and translocation of the bare‐nosed wombat (Vombatus ursinus)
Evolutionary Applications, 2019 Island populations can represent genetically distinct and evolutionarily important lineages relative to mainland conspecifics. However, phenotypic divergence of island populations does not necessarily reflect genetic divergence, particularly for lineages

The (De)Stabilizing effect of juvenile prey cannibalism in a stage-structured model
Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2023 Cannibalism, or intraspecific predation, is the act of an organism consuming another organism of the same species. In predator-prey relationships, there is experimental evidence to support the existence of cannibalism among juvenile prey.

Patterns of spinal motion, kinematic spaces and the land‐to‐sea transition in carnivorans
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Using 3D reconstructions, we quantify intervertebral joint mobility to investigate how cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebral regions evolved distinct kinematic roles in pinnipeds. The findings reveal lineage‐specific adaptations for swimming and highlight the functional significance of vertebral joint flexibility in ecological transitions.

Neutron-Unbound Excited States of 23N [PDF]
, 2017 Neutron unbound states in 23N were populated via proton knockout from an 83.4 MeV/nucleon 24O beam on a liquid deuterium target. The two-body decay energy displays two peaks at E1∼100keV and E2∼1MeV with respect to the neutron separation energy. The data

The impact of urbanisation on social behaviour: a comprehensive review
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Urbanisation is a key driver of global environmental change and presents animals with novel stressors and challenges. It can fundamentally influence social behaviour and has the potential to reshape within‐ and between‐species social interactions. Given the role of social behaviour in reproductive fitness and survival, understanding how social
