Risky behavior of Asian black bears differs between sex and season in a landscape fragmented by roads

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
We investigated sex and seasonal differences in the road crossing behavior of Asian black bears (Ursus thibetanus) living in central Honshu Island, Japan, as an example of wildlife risk‐taking behavior in a highly fragmented landscape. Our results show that Asian black bears generally avoid crossing roads, and that there are seasonal differences in ...

I present and defend concept variability, the view that concepts can admit of indefinitely many variations and changes in their representational contents without thereby losing their identity. I argue that the variability of concepts is central to their role in enabling cognition, and thus that a concept's content variability is, despite philosophical ...

Room‐temperature dislocation plasticity in ceramics: Methods, materials, and mechanisms

open access: yesJournal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 108, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Dislocation‐mediated plastic deformation in ceramic materials has sparked renewed research interest due to the technological potential of dislocations. Despite the long research history of dislocations as one‐dimensional lattice defects in crystalline solids, the understanding of plastically deformable ceramics at room temperature seems ...
