Emy Guilbault @emyguilbault.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Our work shows that the factors driving changes in moth communities can differ depending on the environmental and species context. This matters not only for understanding biodiversity change, but also for predicting the future. 020
Emy Guilbault @emyguilbault.bsky.social · 17/09/2026This would not be possible without the Finnish Museum of Natural History and the Finnish Environment Institute that provided support and the long-term dataset. 110
Emy Guilbault @emyguilbault.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Very happy to share that our paper on climate, habitat & moth communities received one of the 2025 Outstanding Article Awards from the Faculty of Biological and Environmental Sciences at the University of Helsinki! #Biodiversity #GlobalChange 📖 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.comStrong context dependence in the relative importance of climate and habitat on nation‐wide macro‐moth community changesWe present a novel predictive variance partitioning and scenario framework for drivers of species and communities.

Emy Guilbault @emyguilbault.bsky.social · 09/09/2025📍Observer bias is a known challenge when modeling presence-only data, which many methods address. Using a virtual observer approach, we investigated and tailored observer bias correction of two main observer behaviours: explorers vs followers. ▶️ www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...sciencedirect.comExplorers vs. followers: A behavioural approach to spatial bias correction in species distribution modellingIn recent years, the increase in data availability through citizen science data collection has raised questions about the quality of this data.

Emy Guilbault @emyguilbault.bsky.social · 08/08/20253 - 🤝▶️ A holistic predictive approach: To understand and predict community change accurately, both climate and habitat drivers must be considered. This, in turn, avoids misrepresentations of the actual community dynamics 000
Emy Guilbault @emyguilbault.bsky.social · 08/08/20252 - ⚖️▶️ the challenge of context dependency. Our goal was to understand not only how these environmental factors influence biodiversity, but also how their importance might shift depending on spatial locations and the species in question 100
