I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Spring drought could be more detrimental for tree regeneration than summer drought, particularly as climate warms and tree phenology shifts. Results from an experiment in walk-in climate chambers, investigting four contrasting tree species. Led by @munozmazon.bsky.social doi.org/10.1016/j.ag...

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

"Tiempo y clima en Campos de Castilla, de Antonio Machado (I)" Este año se cumplen 150 años del nacimiento de Antonio Machado. Para recordarlo, repasamos la meteorología y el clima en "Campos de Castilla". Te lo contamos en #AEMETBlog. aemetblog.es/2025/12/29/t...

He subido a observation.org una colección selectiva de referencia de insectos polinizadores que he registrado y fotografiado en Cazorla y, en menor medida, otros sitios ibéricos. De momento van ~2600 obs y ~800 especies, pero no está acabada La entrada la tenéis aquí: observation.org/users/878312/

To those that enjoy the boundary areas of your pet scientific discipline, I'd heartily recommend this well-founded, beautifully written vindication of art in the advance of scientific knowledge by Pepe Carrión @pepecarrion.bsky.social et al Congrats, Pepe! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

My blog is back after a few months of technical issues. It now updates correctly, so you can see my recent posts on: the 2025 Spain & Portugal fires, Hutto's book on severe fires, the passing of W. Bond, afforestation & fire severity, sequoia(dendron), and more jgpausas.blogs.uv.es 🧪🌍🔥🌳🪴🍁 wildfire

It remains largely unknown whether epigenetic mosaicism arising in long-lived plants can have evolutionary relevance.We show in this new preprint that somatic epigenetic mosaics within Pistacia terebinthus trees leave a signature in DNA of the pollen grains produced www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

Elucidating mutual relationships between bees and plants in biodiversity hotspots is a challenge that requires the joint efforts of ecologists and taxonomists.In this new paper we analyse community-wide relationships between plants and Andrena bees in the Cazorla mountains and describe 3 new species

Ex compañeros al borde dl colapso mental y físico tras casi una semana bajo las alas del dragón hasta 20 horas diarias, descansando apenas 8, malcomiendo, malbebiendo, sin dormir apenas porque la radiación acumulada y la adrenalina absorbida no te lo permiten. Viendo cómo los compañeros van cayendo

Felices encuentros hoy en el parque de Casas de Ves: escarabajo rinoceronte (Oryctes nasicornis) y una araña enorme y preciosa que no sé si podría ser Macrothele calpeiana. A ver si alguien por aquí nos ayuda a identificarla.

What do you think about open and reproducible science? In this new post published in the @eco-aeet.bsky.social blog, some of our editors show two cases that represent current challenges in relation to reproducibility. Take a look! blogaeet.org/2025/07/14/a...

- Too much pressure to publish. - More volume, less quality. - Predatory journals. - Crazy fees to publish your own work. - Too many low-quality papers. - Pre-prints masquerading as, peer reviewed. Academic publishing is broken. We need overhaul the system, focusing on quality not quantity.

Despite we got some hail in spring when all these folks were blooming, the fleshy fruit yield so far looks excellent: Euonymus europaeus, Prunus spinosa, Rhamnus cathartica and Viburnum lantana.

Y por último, una bonita y grandota abeja en un Cirsium, que no sé por dónde anda... ¿Alguna idea @cmhmaliani.bsky.social y/o @curromolina.bsky.social? Muchas gracias.

Two more butterflies spotted this weekend: Limenitis reducta (on the trail) and Cynthia cardui on Mantisalca salmantica.

Yesterday, I was also lucky enough to spot several beautiful butterflies like Argynnis paphia on Rubus gr. ulmifolius or Brenthis hecate on Prunella vulgaris.

Hoy he tenido una mañana afortunada con la observación y fotografía de aves rupícolas por el Alto Tajuña: avión roquero (Ptynoprogne rupestris), roquero solitario (Monticola solitarius), buitre común (Gyps fulvus) y roquero rojo (Monticola saxatilis).

Were recent waves of large-scale forest dieback predictable? We say yes! A simple approach to describe temporal disturbance dynamics based on Taylor's Law. Now out in Nature Communications: rdcu.be/euG1A Thanks @tommaso-jucker.bsky.social and @rupertseidl.bsky.social for this great project!

Hi, this is a intro, as our lab new to BlueSky. Viktor Baranov´s lab ( past @swarmofthougts on X) is Ramon Y Cajal fellow, research focused on the aquatic insects extinction, palaeo (we use uCT) & impact of climate change on insects´populations. Posts by Viktor or Lab manager - Dr. Celsa Señaris

Un par de sírfidos sobre umbelíferas (Heracleum sphondylium y Thapsia villosa, respectivamente) y un caballito del diablo.

Algunas abejas silvestres que he podido ver esta mañana. Una vez más, necesito invocar a mis "gurús" entomólogos responsables de mi creciente disfrute con los polinizadores a ver si pueden ayudarme a seguir aprendiendo. @cmhmaliani.bsky.social @curromolina.bsky.social @txaverius.bsky.social

Ruta ciclista visitando pueblos con encanto (siempre he sido un enamorado de los lavaderos, y éste con su impresionante fuente es una de mis paradas favoritas) y la zona afectada por el incendio del rodenal de 2005 (subida dura mediante :-P). La vegetación sigue recuperándose bien 20 años después.

In our latest review paper, just out in @ecography.bsky.social, we stress the need of considering multiple timescales to fully understand the impact of hotter droughts on forests. doi.org/10.1002/ecog...

Zerynthia rumina, the favourite butterfly of my children this spring. ;-)

Finally, this beautiful narrow endemic to central Spain in full bloom, Centaurea toletana.

Some bee orchids from central Spain: Ophrys speculum, O. scolopax and O. lutea.

Anacamptis morio subsp. champagneuxii, Ornithogalum with a beautiful visitor (any suggestion, @cmhmaliani.bsky.social? Thanks!), Tulipa sylvestris subsp. australis and Pyrus bourgaeana. The latest is widespread on the red sandstones where recruits well, but I have rarely seen it bearing fruits...

I spotted big groups of European bee-eaters at the beginning of May in the River Tajuña headwaters.
