New preprint🚨happy to share work from my first PhD chapter, evaluating the ways in which we can integrate ancestral state estimations into disparity workflows, completed alongside @tguillerme.bsky.social , Gavin Thomas & @nhcooper123.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... 🧪
Heatmap figure showing how relative disparity error changes across different trait models, ancestral state estimation approaches and fossil sampling densities

Just in time for #FossilFriday! Our paper is out today in Palaeontology @thepalass.bsky.social Ten simple rules to follow when cleaning occurrence data in palaeobiology 🧹🦕 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... Another great @palaeoverse.bsky.social team effort to offer a community resource!

Ten simple rules to follow when cleaning occurrence data in palaeobiology
Large datasets of fossil occurrences, often downloaded from online community-maintained databases, are a vital resource for understanding broad-scale evolutionary patterns, such as how biodiversity h...

In our new article just out we examine the current extinction event in the context of the longer fossil record. We conclude it is likely the greatest event in the last 66 million years doi.org/10.1111/gcb....

The Greatest Extinction Event in 66 Million Years? Contextualising Anthropogenic Extinctions
Species and ecosystems are changing rapidly in response to human actions, but how does this compare with the deeper past? We review and compare the current extinction event to those over the last 66 ...

Not sure which #FunctionalDiversity / #disparity metric to use? Maybe these reflections in @ecography.bsky.social with @cardosopmb.bsky.social, @mariawagnerj.bsky.social, @stefanomammola.bsky.social and Tom Matthews could help! #OA nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
