Great to see these results finally published! Data Blanca (@bioivanezb.bsky.social) and I collected during my master’s research in Peruvian cacao agroforestry systems, where you can learn more about the favorite food of leafcutter ants and how herbivory damage strongly depends on distance! 🐜

I need my green space: minimum area of urban green spaces to maintain bat diversity and activity in a large European metropolis - Urban Ecosystems
Urbanisation and the associated low availability of green spaces in the cities affect the activity and diversity of insectivorous bat species worldwide. However, increasing the extent of green cover w...

Hi there, my student is making a survey about the use of R packages in Ecology, could you please spend two mins on filling it 🥹 Very appreciated! And if you could spread it further (RT), that would be just awesome. ❤️ docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I am running a quick survey to find out which R packages academics use the most in their research and teaching. The goal is to see which tools are essential, spot any gaps, and maybe even discover som...
