Researching the Arctic and the eco-evolutionary significance of cycles of light. Active where the sky is blue.

#SRBR2022 DataDash coming up 😅

I’ll present a poster (S28) on how diel and annual timekeeping mechanisms could constrain range-shifts of organisms tracking suitable temperatures to higher latitude.

Are you going to the #SRBR2024 panel discussion on daylight saving time tonight? This article should be required reading:

Thick-billed murres, a seabird, do not migrate with their long-term partner.

But they do remain in similar light environments when away from the breeding colony.

Happy that our #OpenAccess paper is now published in @CurrentBiology! We investigated genetic load in caribou, a widespread species with high genetic diversity and find they may be vulnerable to inbreeding depression upon declines. https://t.co/ANWO8GrJ0w

The Greenland Institute of Natural Resources is a great place to learn about arctic ecology - apply or share!

[Mathilde Le Moullec @Mathilde_MLM]

Come work with me and insightful colleagues & collaborators! PhD scholarship on spatial patterns of plant-herbivore feedback in Greenland! https://t.co/6de8BQxpZO

[Pablo Macias @pablomt95]

I'm very excited to finally share this work. 🥳
✅ We presented super cool accelerometer data of a long-distance migratory songbird for its entire annual cycle! Check it out🔻

Ecology meets chronobiology

Two papers published back to back promise to catapult interest in the causes and consequences of diel activity patterns on our changing planet

@w_inhetpanhuis @KooijmanSander @Rensen_Lab Congrats Wiestse!

[Nicholas Per Huffeldt @nphuffeldt]

@jacanamama Differences in time of day of sampling? Circadian regulation or patterns of gene expression

[Nicholas Per Huffeldt @nphuffeldt]

What causes the sexes of the thick-billed #murre, a #seabird, to segregate across the diel cycle?

Stable isotopes, GPS, & time-depth-temperature recorders suggest foraging habitat is not the answer

Excellent work linking bird-borne GPS and seabird colony population data to identify a very interesting result—foraging range scales with colony size.

Useful applications for identifying conservation areas based solely on colony size.

[Allison Patterson @allisonglider]

I'm thrilled to share our paper "Foraging range scales with colony size in high latitude seabirds,” out today in @CurrentBiology.

Zotero >> Mendeley

Switch to Zotero

[Remy Levin @RemyLevin]

I've been using Mendeley Desktop daily for years, & have an annotated library of thousands of pdfs. Today, I switched to Zotero. Here's a 🧵of tips on how to do this, if you're also tired of Elsevier's BS and want to make the switch w/minimal effort while maintaining workflow.

@YvanSatge @TheSeabirdGroup @Seabirders Northern fulmars are pretty good at finding spots on cliffs to breed

[Nicholas Per Huffeldt @nphuffeldt]

#SRBR2022 has been stimulating, scientifically and socially. I can’t say enough how great it was being together with new and old colleagues and learning about ground-breaking science on biological rhythms after the pandemic hiatus.

[Nicholas Per Huffeldt @nphuffeldt]

@AIAS_dk @AarhusUni @amerikiwiphd Great to see a congregation of rhythm and sleep researchers in Denmark!

Wish I could make it and insert some ecological and polar biological concepts into the networking, but I will be just getting back from a week of chronobiology at #SRBR2022.

[Nicholas Per Huffeldt @nphuffeldt]

One of the bonuses of #SRBR2022 being in-person is the morning commute to the conference center with tortoises
