1/6 #BOU2024 #BREAK2 #Anthropogenic #noise affects the vocalisations of many species, with recent meta-analyses finding an increase in the amplitude and minimum frequency of calls to be the most common changes. But how does noise affect the carols of Western Australian #magpies?

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Here’s what Donald Trump says when he thinks you’re not watching: He says he’s going to cut taxes for his rich friends, all while cutting Social Security for everyone else.

@BernieSanders and I are mad as hell about it, and together, we’re going to stop him.

[Dr. Kylie Soanes @kyliesoanes]

Most of us will have seen images of crossing structures like this by now. They’re becoming popular all over the world, for everything from crabs to cougars. But how well do they actually work? Do they mitigate the barrier effect of roads on wildlife movement? 🧵

Some exciting new additions to our field team this week... drones!

Successful drone-based water sampling in estuaries this week for @MelbourneWater.

In every Australian city, you’re likely to come across a warbling magpie. How do they cope with the onslaught of noise?

🐦 As @G_Blackburn_ + @mandy_ridley (@uwanews) write, the smarter the magpie, the better they can handle our noisy cities. https://t.co/8cE0kqAxlp

The 1st paper of my #PhD is out now! We find that #anthropogenic #noise impacts the behaviour of magpies, and cognition can play a role in helping individuals to respond to this pervasive stressor! @mandy_ridley @Ben_Ashton9 @CornishJackdaws @BiolSci_UWA

[Amanda Ridley @mandy_ridley]

Excited to share our new paper, led by @G_Blackburn_ , which shows that individuals with higher cognition were more able to maintain anti predator responses in the presence of anthropogenic noise:

New study released using #eDNA to discover the effect of mega-fires on the presence of platypuses. Huge congratulations to @EcoEmcg and the team behind the project including @andrewrweeks @r_tingley. Find out more in this article from @ConversationEDU: https://t.co/PMEct7Idgr

Republicans have zero evidence to impeach President Biden.

Fox News tried to do a bunch of scary man-on-the-street interviews about crime. It didn't go well.

[No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen @NoLieWithBTC]

Biden is now running Republicans’ own words as a pro-union ad.

This is genius.

[Dr. Gretchen Hansen @gretchen_H20]

I heard that #ChatGPT generates fake citations, But I had to see for myself. I asked for scientific papers on #climatechange and #fish. And I got what appears to be a great list! However, these papers DO NOT EXIST. ChatGPT wrongly insists that they are real papers. 🧵(1/5)

[platypusSPOT (cesar) @platypusSPOT]

So excited to see results from this!

Airborne #eDNA sampling terrestrial ecosystems! We partnered with @MtRothwell on an innovative project conducting numerous long-term field surveys trialling networked, solar-powered active samplers, and simple, low-cost, passive samplers at Mt Rothwell's predator-free reserves.

[EnviroDNA @enviro_DNA]

Are you at the #eDNA2023 conference? Want to see how @SmithRoot water sampling systems work? Austen Thomas @ScatDNA will be running through a live demonstration at 10.45am during morning tea tomorrow! Come along and see these #eDNA sampling systems in action 🧬💧
