Nations need to work together to recover vital #seagrass & #mangroves ecosystems 🌎🌱

In a new paper led by @ChristinABuelow learn how ambitious global targets can inspire coordinated action to protect & restore these ecosystems.

Despite large losses, declining trends can be reversed in some places

Local context is important to inform management at scales that matter

#Seagrasses are important coastal ecosystems that are increasingly threatened by human activities

We need to know where and why seagrasses are in decline to improve management

#CWTC21 1/5

[Jillian Dunic @jdunic]

Coastal development and water quality were the 2 most common drivers of change

But attributions of drivers to change in meadow area were often weak

This can lead to overconfidence in importance and ubiquity of drivers, or overlook effects of co-occurring drivers

Just saw this in a manuscript. This is a very common practice and it is incorrect. Don't do it!

Great article on coding habits that pay off in data work. Applies equally well to #rstats.

Exciting new features in #rstats #ggplot2! I finally managed to finish the last PR from my @rstudio internship, making it easier to deal with overlapping labels in #ggplot2! https://t.co/3MBf9tW1OU

[Dr Emily Darling @emilysdarling]

Fabulous #ggplot resource for anyone looking to up their game on beautiful #rstats plotting

At our deepest eelgrass site in Bazan Bay, shoots are taller than Kelley! (2.6 m) It was more like diving in an eelgrass forest. Can't wait to go back.

What will we cover in our Community Call on Research Applications of rOpenSci Taxonomy & Biodiversity Tools?

2 speakers will cover key #rstats packages and 4 speakers will talk about their use cases

Thread with details...

Major #rstats #reproducibility PSA - Narrow but significant bias issue in sample() (id'ed by @kellieotto + P Stark) fixed in r-devel. Be aware set.seed + sample code ***will give different results*** than in previous R versions by default. Credit D Murdoch + @LukeTierney4

@bluecology Oh! Good tip. Maybe this is what you need @elahi_r?
