New paper accepted in Proc B! 🎉 We disentangled how heatwaves affect maternal egg care in earwigs. We found that mothers adjust care depending on both their own heat stress and the stress of their eggs, but these effects act independently rather than interactively. doi.org/10.1098/rspb...

🚗 Traffic is a major source of urban pollution, but trees can help us monitor it. A study by a Turkish University found that antioxidant traits influence how trees tolerate pollution.🌱 Some species can even help make cities more resilient! 👉Read which ones: doi.org/10.1007/s112...

Join our Africa Prize winner Professor Ara Monadjem at the Royal Society on 15 April as he explores why taxonomy and biodiversity surveys remain key for conservation efforts in Africa, and what bats can teach us about hidden biodiversity on the continent. royalsociety.org/science-even...

New preprint is out - a very large team got together last year, virtually and in person and assessed code and data sharing in BES journals. The key take away? Data sharing was good (97% shared), code sharing was poorer (35%). README files were also highly variable in quality. Publish your code!

We have a growing collection of resources for women in ecology that support, celebrate and advocate for women's roles in research and practice.  Check our collection of resources here 👇 https://f.mtr.cool/gtwczvuefr

Currently in the middle of this - the maths in the models is beyond me but it's excellently written and presented, and prime bigger thinking stuff. Super interesting read.

New study in @nature.com: we focus on the diversity that's missing - “dark diversity.” Human impact means only 1 in 5 species persist in disturbed areas versus 1 in 3 in pristine ones. My summary of the project & its implications: the3dlab.org/2025/04/03/g...

Hello BlueSky🙂. I'm a grant writer at Tampere University (Finland) / evolutionary ecologist. In my research I look at how and why different organisms (Asian elephants / reindeer / butterflies) respond to external stressors (parasites / immune threats / climate change) in noisy, natural systems.

Roughly 6,000 readers answered our poll, with many declaring that Bluesky was nicer, kinder and less antagonistic to science than X https://go.nature.com/42tH8Ai
