@Jon_Chase03@Ecology_Letters If you have a chance to see my talk on estuarine metacommunities, would love for you to stop in and chat metacommunity ecology at some point!
@BallsInYaMe0wth@hankgreen It boggles my mind that someone can see the current data and think that the near-vertical uptick in co2 that corresponds with the uptick in global temperature that also just so happens to begin near the start of the industrial revolution is due to some "unknown" 10k-year cycle
@Jon_Chase03 I've become partial to ResearchRabbit for literature review. It's Ai-based but actually grounded in the literature, and it's quite good! https://t.co/dpjX4t4Cxy
@Jon_Chase03 I had the same exact experience when playing around with it. Asked it for a list of papers on metacommunity ecology in reef fishes. Not one of them was real, and it kept doubling down on the one I had it investigate further.
@langstonitaylor Don't get me wrong here, I've been one of the biggest Lamar fans and defenders since we drafted him. But at this point there's no reason to think he's going to come down from asking price, and there's no way in hell the Ravens should meet that price.
@KeevilMatthew Not sure what you find problematic. Whether the intent was to mislead or not, it was an intentional decision with the effect of misleading. And it is an indictment on the pub system that researchers cherry-pick results to get into "better" journals
This is in no way meant to take any of the blame off the researchers who very clearly and intentionally mislead reviewers and readers, but what strikes me is the toxicity of academic publishing that leads scientists to do things like this. There has to be a better system.
How to mislead in science: hide raw data in supp material (SM).
Just had a dept-wide reading group of a recent Science paper on latitudinal/temperature trends in predation pressure (10.1126/science.abc4916). Paper claims simple clean patterns (fig) but where are the data???
Hey all, I made a #science twitter! My hope is to use this as a space to share my love of the oceans, ecology, and data science, and to promote my professional and academic pursuits, cool stats methods, open science tools and projects, and other fun science-y things. Cheers!
