Global meta‐analysis reveals urban‐associated behavioural differences among wild populations

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Urbanization drives rapid phenotypic change, yet broad patterns of behavioural responses remain unclear. Using a global phylogenetic meta‐analysis, we show urban populations exhibit increased boldness, aggression, exploration and activity—especially in birds—highlighting consistent behavioural shifts and revealing major taxonomic gaps that limit our ...

Offshore wind farm avoidance by a discard‐feeding seabird is independent of local fishing activity

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Fishing is not allowed within wind farms; therefore, discard‐feeding seabirds may appear to avoid wind farm areas. We found that most Lesser Black‐backed Gulls avoided the wind farm area, but not each individual in each period. Avoidance of the wind farm was not driven by fishing exclusion within its perimeter.

Riding out the storm: Behavioural responses of a large herbivore to high‐Arctic winds

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using 11 years of GPS data from 61 muskoxen in Northeast Greenland, we show how increasing wind speed and Arctic storms reshape movement modes and habitat selection. Muskoxen respond by bedding in dense vegetation, prioritizing energy conservation over foraging, revealing a simple behavioural strategy with potential fitness consequences under ...

Conceptual colour: race, economic knowledge, and the anthropology of financialization De la couleur comme concept : race, connaissances économiques et anthropologie de la financiarisation

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Economic anthropologists now carry out fieldwork in settings for which the ethnographic method was never designed, amongst powerful financial actors who are notoriously difficult to access, and in contexts which transcend geographical boundaries. This has engendered a re‐orientation of anthropology, to consider not only the economic lives of people but

State of the Field: Royal Studies and Court Studies

History, EarlyView.
Abstract Monarchy, as the world's oldest and most enduring form of political organization, is an area that has attracted the attention of scholars from a range of disciplines. Two connected and complementary fields embody this interdisciplinary study of monarchy and monarchies: royal studies, which takes an all‐encompassing approach to monarchy, and ...
