Zooarchaeology of Houses and Middens: Investigating Patterns of Assemblage Composition at Early Inuit Sites Across the North American Arctic

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines faunal assemblages from paired semisubterranean houses and middens at 10 Early Inuit sites spanning the North American Arctic (ca. 1200–1500 ce) to evaluate whether local resource bases or other factors primarily structure zooarchaeological variability.

Foraging and movement flexibility shape seed dispersal by an arboreal primate in a modified landscape

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
As habitats change, the effectiveness of animal‐mediated seed dispersal increasingly depends on animal responses to altered structure and resources. With habitat loss and degradation accelerating across the tropics, understanding how dispersers' foraging behavior and movement influence seed removal and deposition is critical to promoting forest ...

Reindeer grazing induces spatial and functional shifts in root systems of boreal pine forests

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The spatial distribution of roots, laterally and vertically, is critical for nutrient and water uptake and for driving root‐associated carbon inputs and turnover. Large herbivores, such as reindeer, influence ecosystems belowground by altering aboveground vegetation composition and soil microclimate.

Trait‐associated pathway links plant diversity to litterfall phenology in a seasonally dry tropical forest

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Phenology plays a central role in regulating energy flow and nutrient cycling, yet remains insufficiently integrated into biodiversity–ecosystem functioning frameworks. This gap is especially relevant in strongly seasonal systems, where community‐wide synchrony in leaf litterfall may arise from either temporal niche differentiation among species or ...

Stabilising Routines in Complex Emergencies: How Basic Service Continuity Shapes Perceived Security

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how locally embedded actors describe the relationship between basic service continuity and perceived security in complex emergencies, with particular attention to the stabilisation of everyday routines. Using Proximity‐Predictability‐Attributability (PPA) as an analytic lens, we trace how interviewees relate access to water,
