DOI: 10.1007/s11356-019-05055-8
Abstract: Soil-exchangeable aluminum (Al) has toxic effects on living organisms in acidic soils. Earthworm presence and activity can alter soil pH, which has a significant influence on Al toxicity. However, the effects of earthworms on soil… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jhevol.2017.09.009
Abstract: The strontium isotopic ratio 87Sr/86Sr has been studied in the Sterkfontein Valley of South Africa to infer both habitat usage and residence for a number of early hominins. This paper examines the existing 87Sr/86Sr data… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jhevol.2018.02.004
Abstract: The importance of diet in primate ecology has motivated the use of a variety of methods to reconstruct dietary habits of extinct hominin taxa. Dental microwear is one such approach that preserves evidence from consumed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1071/am17032
Abstract: As a consequence of genetic studies of population structuring, the usefulness of subspecies has been questioned, with opinions divided. The situation is further confused by the use of varying species and subspecies concepts. Most alternatives… read more here.
