In this new preprint, we call for the formal integration between #Macroecoloy & #Ecotoxicology by providing an operational framework & guidelines to achieve it. Take a look and spread the word! Led my dear friend and colleague @gabrielmoulatlet.bsky.social ecoevorxiv.org/repository/v...

After 4yr of hard work to compare empirical species range positions' shifts from the #BioShifts DB against predictions from niche-based models trained on climate & tailored to methodological attributes of each species & study, we found species shift ahead of models' predictions! 🦋 shorturl.at/vOmCw

Does genetic diversity help species keep up with, or tolerate, climate change? 🌡️🌍 Our new BioShifts paper shows that high genetic diversity 🧬: 1) Reduces range contractions under fast warming 2) Accelerates range expansion under moderate warming onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Genetic diversity shapes climate-driven species redistribution: 🚨Genetic diversity slows species range shifts, especially at the trailing edge and under rapid climate change—consistent with the evolutionary rescue hypothesis. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

This is why @biogeographyjfab.bsky.social and other diamond OA journals are so important. Send us your awesome biogeography papers and do the field a solid! nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Hi all. I am very excited that after 6 years I finally got my phylogenetic comparative methods book and online exercises online. Feel free to use and share. The book is here: nhcooper123.github.io/pcm-primer/. Note that it is not finished, we had to abandon it before the sunk costs fallacy broke us

Delighted to see this volume out and open access with lots of interesting chapters related to the human right to science. My chapter explores the notion of ‘epistemic jurisdictions’ as a way of better understanding the interlacing of local knowledge and scientific knowledge under this human right.

Happy to see this work finally out in @globalchangebio.bsky.social ! With @xaviermorin.bsky.social we showed that species richness is a key factor for the stability of forest biomass production 🌲 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

97% of the papers archived the data but only 35% archived the code. Most people are writing code but not sharing it. Time to bring up this again: scispace.com/pdf/publish-... (and if the code isn't good enough yet, maybe it's too early to publish the paper) #openscience #reproducibility #ecopubs

Out now! The Academic Wheel of Privilege 🎡 We developed a framework & app to guide authorship teams in making equitable and thoughtful authorship decisions. @saralilplants.bsky.social, @justinsulik.bsky.social, Bethan Iley, Mahmoud Elsherif, @flavioazevedo.bsky.social 🔗 osf.io/preprints/me...

New paper out examining fish food web degradation in the Anthropocene. We show the structure of aquatic food webs are changing-- even when species richness doesn’t. These signals are strongly associated with decreases in body size within fish communities. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🌐🐠🐡🦈🐟

As authors, reviewers and editors, we can actively shape the publishing ecosystem, where different journal models entail different choices. Ideally, ethics—despite occasional compromises—should become and remain the primary driver of our decisions. Check: peeer.net/2026/02/20/d... #BetterPublishing

First ECR Feature of 2026! PhD student at New Mexico State University, Rohit Subhedar, talks about his recent work on the often overlooked tree-tree interactions in shaping savannas, by assessing tree spatial distributions in a south Indian savanna. Read more about his work in our Q+A here:

The last paper of my PhD is out! Together with @duarteldas.bsky.social and Gabriel Nakamura, we investigated how in situ diversification and lineage dispersal have shaped assemblage level diversity in the Atlantic Forest. nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Are we thoroughly thinking/discussing about Open Access models? We invite you to think about OA not only as a chance to read science freely, but as an opportunity to make science more equitable, inclusive, with more voices from different places

For those interested in exploring Site-Based Estimation of Ancestral Range of Species (SBEARS), this material can be very helpful. gabrielnakamura.github.io/Herodotools/...

New paper out today, 'Global North-South science inequalities due to language and funding barriers' We highlight how language and funding barriers can compound inequity and offer practical recommendations to bridge these gaps. Read the Open Access paper here! 👉 tinyurl.com/654ztk3w

OpenAccess science sounds great! But what if authors have to pay (Gold OA)? Well, clear biases appear: less participation from low and middle-income countries. Find all about it in our new study led by Pablo Huais and Javi Nori 👇@oikosjournal.bsky.social shorturl.at/bheb6 @peeer.bsky.social

We know that marine fishes 🐠 have an inverse gradient of speciation compared to that of spp richness, with higher speciation at higher latitudes. But, what about freshwater 🐟? Find out in the new PhD paper by Juliana Herrera-Pérez and friends (not just colleagues) 🤿 👇 shorturl.at/zgKfA

What do we know about mammal biodiversity patterns in the American tropics? Find out in the new book chapter by @liomys.mx and yours truly 👇 link.springer.com/rwe/10.1007/... The whole book is a gem for those interested in the study of mammals of one of the world's most diverse regions!

New paper, Great news: We have been saying for years that making the editorial board more diverse was needed We now show that diverse team of editors makes for more diverse reviewers More Inclusive=Better Science Things are getting better on this❤️ besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

We've got ISSUES. Literally. We scraped >100k special issues & over 1 million articles to bring you a PISS-poor paper. We quantify just how many excess papers are published by guest editors abusing special issues to boost their CVs. How bad is it & what can we do? arxiv.org/abs/2601.07563 A 🧵 1/n

TIBS @biogeography.bsky.social meeting in Aarhus was fun, lots of discussions were had, things were learnt, and the last diner in an open venue was a great idea. Thanks Hanna Tuomisto and all the organizing committe for a very successful conference! @fabrovillalobos.bsky.social @peeer.bsky.social

TIBS 2026 conference was a great opportunity to keep disseminating the @peeer.bsky.social initiative and to present the field's New, Diamond 💎 Open Access journal @biogeographyjfab.bsky.social Grateful to Michael N. Dawson for the leadership and trust to co-lead this new endeavour #TIBS2026

Glad to be back at TIBS conference #TIBS2026. Specially, to find my former students and now colleagues @axelarango.bsky.social and @aberenicega.bsky.social presenting their cool postdoc work. Got to see old friends and met new ones, always the best part ;)

I’ve asked this exact question 👇to editors-in-chief of many (even society) journals. Many answered “because it’s been always like that”. Even though we know that it can reduce some biases. So what’s to loose by being double-blinded?! besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

This is excellent: Tips and Tricks for Writing Constructive Peer Reviews Perhaps the most excellent part is this subhead: "Remember that peer review is not meant to crush souls". Right? Peer review should improve papers (and OK, gatekeep a little) - not make an author regret their career choices!

PEEER stands behind the Stockholm Declaration, a call to rethink academic publishing in response to a global crisis marked by paywalls, predatory journals and paper mills—threats that undermine what was once a reliable foundation for social progress. Check peeer.net/2025/12/09/t... #BetterPublishing

All invited! Tune in to hear about the findings of our BIOSHIFTS working group, brilliantly led by Lise Comte, Gaël Grenouillet and the fabulous @jonlen.bsky.social 👇with a bunch of great researchers

Very nice work by @liomys.mx questioning traditional ecomorph classification in rodents and instead suggesting convergent evolutionary regimes for single and multiple traits. All by leveraging data from museums and collections, mainly from the Global South. Check it out!!

Online now: Forecasting extinction risk for future-proof conservation decisions. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... Should conservation focus on threatened species? Or should we be proactive and protect species before they become threatened? This paper explores how to get the balance right.

Indeed! This is what PEEER @peeer.bsky.social promotes and the reason for creating @biogeographyjfab.bsky.social for a more ethical and equitable publishing environment for the #Biogeography community. Stay tuned for the lunch of Biogeography in early 20206! biog.journals.sup.org/index.php/bi...
