Back here for a bit to promote our new paper 🥳

[Dr Nadiah Kristensen @NadiahKrist]

I'm obligated to use this terrible website to boost the altmetrics for our 🎉NEW PAPER IN PNAS🎉

We estimated the number of species that have gone extinct in Singapore, including those that went extinct before we had a chance to discover them.

We've been working on this paper out today (and open access) for over 7 years, so bear with me while I tell you the story of how we discovered that wolves kill and eat sea otters (Panels A-D) and what this means for wolves, otters, and deer. /1

This is really sad 😢 Mike was an inspiration to many in my part of the world.

[Rachakonda Sreekar @imperial_pigeon]

I am saddened by the news of Mike’s passing 😔 - the greatest wildlife statistician and educator in SE Asia, Guru Mike Meredith (aka Pseudo Ronald Fisher). 🫡

[Yadvinder Malhi @ymalhi]

Most ecosystems are powered by the cascade of captured sunshine through plants to higher trophic levels. In a new paper in @nature we quantify how much energy flows through birds & mammals in old-growth and logged forests in Borneo, and find a surprise https://t.co/holRtUX0Nu

📢 Paper alert 📢
The first chapter of my Ph.D. on diel activity 🕐of tropical mammals 🐘🐆🦌 it's out in @NatureComms
With > 2.3 million TEAM camera-trap pics we revealed patterns among regions and their underlying processes.
Check it out 👇

@cameratraps1 Congrats, Pablo! Well deserved 👏

[Matthijs Hollanders @realHollanders]

New paper! 📢 The second chapter of my PhD was just published in @MethodsEcolEvol 🤯 @andyroyle_pwrc and I developed a multievent mark-recapture model that accounts for state assignment errors in both sampling and diagnostic protocols in disease models! 🧑‍🔬https://t.co/jNQHIi2DkT

[cameratraps @cameratraps1]

Great thread about new open access materials, videos, software etc. A must for anyone interested in #abundance and/or #cameratraps

@InvasionEcology More like thanks to @sivasothi and the OtterWatchers!

[Catherine Sun 孫繼光 💫 @catsunbear]

Our paper, "A cautionary tale comparing spatial count and partial identity models for estimating densities of threatened and unmarked populations" is now out!

We used CT data and simulations to compare Spatial Count and Spatial Partial Identity models🦌

Over the last 5 years I've been writing a book, and the e-book version is out now!

Complete with code boxes, maths boxes, ninjas and the odd Australianism which I hope won't get lost in translation.
