Post-glacial colonization of eastern Europe by small mammals that survived in the Carpathian refugium: evidence from mitochondrial DNA of the common vole
There is now considerable evidence for the survival of temperate species within glacial refugia that were situated at relatively high latitudes, notably the Carpathian Basin and Dordogne region in Europe. However, the prevalence of fossil remains in such locations is rarely matched by molecular evidence for their contribution to subsequent...Stojak, Joanna ; McDevitt, Allan D ; Herman, Jeremy S ; Searle, Jeremy B ; Wójcik, Jan M

Non-destructive analysis of museum objects by fibre-optic Raman spectroscopy.
Raman spectroscopy is a versatile technique that has frequently been applied for the investigation of art objects. By using mobile Raman instrumentation it is possible to investigate the artworks without the need for sampling. This work evaluates the use of a dedicated mobile spectrometer for the investigation of a range...Vandenabeele, Peter ; Tate, Jim ; Moens, Luc

Edinburgh Cabinet Makers' wage agreements and wage disputes, 1805 to 1826
