This is a real tour de force by Maria Isabel. This paper is, put together, a whole century of CPU time done with the help of Calcul Québec. We will also be moving some of the outputs to BON-in-a-Box, @geobon.org cloud-based tool to facilitate the reporting of biodiversity indicators.

We're hiring a full-time research software engineer for biodiversity & bioacoustics! Position offers a strong research component with independence + research pub opportunities and real-world impact. expected salary range $111K - $116K. dse.berkeley.edu/news/were-hi...

Thought our experience earlier this year receiving 8 reviews, some of which were for the wrong paper, was a bizarre one-off. Apparently not!

I’m recruiting a PhD and MSC student for fall 2026 working on the movement ecology and conservation of Mexican spotted owls in SW forests and rocky canyonlands. Exciting partnership with Los Alamos National Laboratory. Great vibrant lab group, high impact research! 🦉 gavinmjones.com/opportunities/

With all the conversation surrounding the environmental impact of AI, we decided to give our two cents on what it all means for ecologists! esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Most major theories in ecology assume some sort of equilibrium, but only ~half of empirical tests acknowledge it & even fewer observed it in their system. Does this matter? How did the idea become so pervasive in ecology anyway? Find out in our new paper! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Really excited to have been a part of this one! Hopefully sparks some conversation about what exactly we want our protected areas to *do*.

Some postdoc work up now up as a preprint! ecoevorxiv.org/repository/v... Choosing sites for monitoring biodiversity is critical for robust inference - so which algorithm should you use to pick sites? We found similar performance for algos and outline the features that might influence your decision.

New paper from me + @lauradee.bsky.social on using causal inference methods and concepts in ecology! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... (1/5)

My inaugural post is for my paper recently out in GEB! A contribution to the conversation around local biodiversity change, we reconstructed thousands of functional diversity time series to assess shifts in functional structure for bird & mammal communities. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
