Reuse remix recycle: repurposing archaeological digital data [PDF]

, 2018
Preservation of digital data is predicated on the expectation of its reuse, yet that expectation has never been examined within archaeology. While we have extensive digital archives equipped to share data, evidence of reuse seems paradoxically limited ...

Using artificial intelligence thanabots as “thanatobots” to assist anatomy learning and professional development: Ghosts masquerading as opportunity?

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Thanabots—AI‐generated digital representations of deceased donors—could enhance anatomy education by linking medical history with anatomy and fostering humanistic engagement. However, their use poses ethical questions and carries psychological risks, including issues around consent, authenticity, and emotional harm.

Reading hominin life history in fossil bones and teeth: methods to test hypotheses regarding its evolution

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human life history is derived compared to that of our closest living relatives, the great apes. It has been suggested that these derived traits are causally related to aspects of our ecology, social behaviour and cognitive abilities. However, resolving this requires that we know the evolutionary trajectory of our distinctive pattern of growth,

UNFOLDING LEONARDO DA VINCI’S GLOBE (AD 1504) TO REVEAL ITS HISTORICAL WORLD MAP [PDF]

ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2017
This paper reports in detail on the image-based modelling and unwrapping approach used to create a two-dimensional projected map of an astonishing ostrich egg globe from AD 1504. This miniature egg globe is not only the oldest extant engraved globe, but

The Impact of Vegetation on the Visibility of Archaeological Features in Airborne Laser Scanning Datasets from Different Acquisition Dates

Remote Sensing, 2022
Digital elevation models derived from airborne laser scanning have found worldwide application in archaeology and other disciplines. A key feature that makes these models so valuable lies in their capacity to represent micro-relief features indicating ...

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Virtual Archaeology, Virtual Longhouses and "Envisioning the Unseen" Within the Archaeological Record [PDF]

, 2018
We are of an era in which digital technology now enhances the method and practice of archaeology. In our rush to embrace these technological advances however, Virtual Archaeology has become a practice to visualize the archaeological record, yet it is still searching for its methodological and theoretical base.

Preservation biases in the fossil record distort species ecological niche and distribution models

Ecography, EarlyView.
Ecological niche models (ENMs) increasingly leverage the fossil record to understand species' environmental associations and predict their geographic distributions. However, fossils do not occur uniformly through time and space, which can compromise the robustness of ENMs and thus affect ecological conclusions. Here, we assessed how preservation biases
