Very happy to announce that my paper on cross-species patterns in habitat selection of terrestrial mammals is finally published in Global Ecology & Biogeography! doi.org/10.1111/geb.... The highlights: - Strong road avoidance! - Lots of variation - Selection driven by environment rather than traits

Local and Landscape‐Level Environmental Conditions Drive Habitat Selection Across Terrestrial Mammal Species
Aim Animal movements are a fundamental process affecting communities and ecosystems. Quantifying habitat selection across species and habitats is key for understanding how animals respond to environ...

First PhD paper by @bjoernfrankly.bsky.social is out now doi.org/10.1111/geb.... Björn quantified habitat selection across 48 terrestrial mammals: selection is shaped by environmental availability at different spatial scales, not species traits.

Excited to launch the new improved Reproducible Code guide from @britishecologicalsociety.org @methodsinecoevol.bsky.social FREE online here! www.britishecologicalsociety.org//wp-content/... Amazing work by some very talented ECRs. We hope it’s useful!
Book cover for Reproducible Code guide. The cover has a red background with a large yellow-bodied black-headed stag beetle.

Excited to share that the second paper of my PhD is out in @currentbiology.bsky.social 🍈🦜🍒🐒🍊🐿️ We show that the functional diversity of seed-dispersal interactions in tropical forests takes circa 20 years to recover after deforestation. You can read it here: www.cell.com/current-biol...

Delayed recovery of seed-dispersal interactions after deforestation
Landim et al. show that seed-dispersal interactions require about two decades to functionally recover in tropical forests in Ecuador, but the recovery time of seed-dispersal functions is delayed in pa...

New study in #Nature reveals the 'Gollum effect': nearly half of surveyed scientists report territorial behaviors—data hoarding, gatekeeping—mostly during #PhD. Early-career researchers bear the brunt; 1 in 5 left academia as a result. www.nature.com/articles/d41... 🧪

Science’s ‘Gollum effect’: PhDs bear brunt of territorial behaviour
Survey respondents at all career stages report colleagues engaging in territorial and possessive behaviours — but early-career researchers are most often affected.

Ecology needs a causal overhaul
Ecology has yet to embrace causal inference, yet most questions in ecology are causal. Despite the common use of terms that imply causation, such as “shapes”, “drives”, or “impacts”, many studies shy...

How @animaltracking.bsky.social plans to track animals with Icarus to create the Internet of Animals and be able to study not just how/if they react to geological phenomena, but also monitor disease spread and find out many other cool things from their movement: www.theguardian.com/science/2024...

Can goats predict earthquakes? Can dogs forecast volcanic eruptions? These scientists think so
Tracking the behaviour of tagged animals from space could transform the research into a host of natural phenomena

well, here it is lads after combing through some 1,400 records, it looks like the slender-billed curlew is indeed extinct and the last known photo taken in 1995 was probably at the point it slipped beneath the waves 🦉🧪 www.nhm.ac.uk/discover/new...

The slender-billed curlew is declared extinct
This is the first mainland European bird declared extinct in 500 years.

This is a terrifying development from India regarding the legendary writer Arundhati Roy -- one of the Modi regime's fiercest critics
