I’m excited to share a new paper with @shannoncurley.bsky.social in Ecography! Winter & breeding bird communities in the NE USA have become more functionally & phylogenetically similar to one another over time. Check out which functions have changed! doi.org/10.1002/ecog... #Macroecology 🌎🦃🦆🦅

Functional and phylogenetic convergence of winter and breeding bird communities in the northeastern US
Around the world, ecological communities are becoming more similar to one another in a process known as biotic homogenization – an increase in similarity among communities over time. While biotic hom...
