📦 The {BayesFR} package is now on CRAN! It allows fitting functional responses by providing dynamical prediction models for use in #brms. Includes many trophic interaction models, and now also multi-species models. #Rstats (1/3)

BayesFR: Fitting Functional Responses in 1- and 2-Prey Systems
Easy application of Bayesian inference for functional responses via 'brms'. This package allows to fit various FR models for single- and multi-prey experiments by providing nonlinear prediction functi...

Out now! Ecological #ResponseDiversity research priorities @nordicoikos.bsky.social 🌍🧪 Key findings: Ecologists don't agree (I could stop there) on definitions (& there...) of #ResponseDiversity scales & dimensions but see conceptual value Our network must diversify. Join us! doi.org/10.1002/oik....

Expert‐led priorities for a response diversity research agenda in ecology
Response diversity describes variation in ecological responses to environmental change. Response diversity is expected to drive ecological stability since a wider variety of responses to one or more ...

Read our new paper, in which we explore the importance of response diversity for maintaining community stability in the context of pulse disturbances, using a combination of model simulations and meta-analysis: doi.org/10.1111/ele.... w @hillebr1.bsky.social @owpet.bsky.social & Shyamolina Ghosh

Species Interactions Determine the Importance of Response Diversity for Community Stability to Pulse Disturbances
Caculations of response diversity can be based on species fundamental responses in isolation or their realised responses in the community using metrics of response dissimilarity and response divergen...

My first post is finally here: I am very excited to share our newest paper in Ecology where we present the temperature-dependent effect of multiple resources on #phytoplankton growth, using gradients of temperatures, light and nutrients. esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....

Newsletter out now: Find out about the contribution of individual species to the stability of ecosystems, our look back at the biodiversity COP, and the role of a modern scientist & the question of whether or not the ivory tower nowadays is a place to be: 241806.seu2.cleverreach.com/m/15774382 🦑

Read our new paper in EcologicalMonographs esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... We introduce a framework on how to partition species contributions to ecological stability in disturbed communities based on species absolute change in biomass and relative change in proportion.
