Excited to share this brand-new
#phenology
pub with the wonderful Rob Guralnick, Lindsay Campbell, and Erin Grady! The framework offers utility for predicting phenological sensitivity and responsiveness in temperate regions and across plant species.

New in @ESAMonographs: Habitat area (rather than fragmentation) is the primary driver of faunal density in seagrass ecosystems — though different species & life stages benefit from varying landscape configurations

Are 🐛🕷️🐞🦋🦗 declining?

Are they becoming active earlier in the year?

How are they impacted by
-climate change?
-urbanization?
-non-native plants?

JOB:In september I will open a call for a 2.5 year contract for a technician in our team @MapasLab, Vigo (Spain). I need a R programmer to run a large set of experiments with GEN3SIS @hagen_oskar model, in @CESGA_ supercomputer, to explore reasons behind observed biodiversity🌍💫

[Desiree L. Narango, PhD @DLNarango]

Happy #mothweek! The most wonderful time of year!

Last night I got a Scarlet Lichen Moth, a rarely observed species in VT that specializes on lichens on Pine trees.

Let the biodiversity come to you at your porch light tonight! (And turn your lights off when you’re done!)

[Caitlin J Campbell @BatsOnTheMove]

New paper in @AIBSbiology BioScience! Identifications are keeping pace with millions of observations added to @iNaturalist, and a small subset of highly active, taxonomically specialized users provide most of the identifications on the site.

[Desiree L. Narango, PhD @DLNarango]

One focus of my research at @vtecostudies is investigating effects of global change on species interactions, & variation over space & time.

We're investing how @inaturalist can be used to fill data gaps! If you 💚#caterpillars, contribute to our project! https://t.co/HMfWKXuRNj

@DLNarango Your categories are of course mostly orthogonal and perfectly valid, but I couldn’t resist bringing it!

@mwtingley @MHCNeateClegg Very cool study! I was privileged to live 1 mi from one of Newmark's fragments in the W Usambaras 1996-1998 and to help with banding on a couple occasions. (my house the little white one on the right)

Does 2 make a "cluster"?

We are hiring 2 TT faculty at @UNC_Biology in

If you've had troubles reading the full @Team_eBird dataset into R like I have (fread and readr weren't cutting it for 163GB), the auk R package from @CornellBirds is an awesome and super easy solution! After a couple of lines of code and an acceptable wait time, I'm there.

@DMcKay_Lab Congrats Dan!!!
