'The real threat is a slow, comfortable drift toward not understanding what you're doing. Not a dramatic collapse. Just a generation of researchers who can produce results but can't produce understanding' What a nice post on AI, education, learning, research and academia

Swedish old-growth forests store 83 % more carbon than managed forests, according to a new study from Lund University with BECC & @mergesweden.bsky.social members Anders Ahlström & Didac Pascual. The difference is substantially larger than previous estimates: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HtS...

Together with @juditlecinadiaz.bsky.social & @monicagturner.bsky.social, we synthesized studies on post-disturbance forest reorganization. Key insight: Self-replacement is common across biomes, i.e., disturbances act as catalysts of change only under specific conditions doi.org/10.1111/geb....

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

Who needs PowerPoint when you have Quarto and @emilhvitfeldt.bsky.social's extensions?! I wanted to make an image-heavy presentation. Usually, I'd reach for Keynote. But Emil shared quarto-revealjs-editable, which let me stay in Quarto land 🥰 Thanks, Emil! Find it here: github.com/EmilHvitfeld...

Con motivo del #8M la #ComisiondeIgualdad de la AEET @eco-aeet.bsky.social y #FRACTAL @fractalcol.bsky.social lanzamos una encuesta sobre la importancia de los #CUIDADOS en la carrera científica. Si trabajas en ecología anímate a completarla! aeet-comisionigualdad.limesurvey.net/485287?lang=...

The future of Europe’s forest disturbance regimes– a thread. Tl, dr: Disturbances from wildfire, bark beetles & wind will continue to increase in the coming decades. Under unabated climate change disturbances could more than double by 2100. New paper out in @science.org doi.org/10.1126/scie...

One of those legendary pieces of online statistical lore that everyone needs be aware of.

🆕 BLOG POST There’s so much more to spatial downscaling today than classic LM or kriging. In my new blog post, I show how flexible and powerful GAMs can be for this task. #rstats #dataviz ➡️ dominicroye.github.io/blog/canary-...

Excited to share our new paper in @natcomms.nature.com We synthesize causal discovery & inference approaches across traditions (regression adjustment, quasi-expts, SEMs, Granger causality, convergent cross-mapping, and more) into a unified workflow for ecologists. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Fast-growing trees are set to dominate the #forests of the #future — but at a cost🌳 Our Nature Plants (@natplants.nature.com) study shows a global shift toward "sprinter" tree species, while slow-growing, functionally critical #trees face elevated #extinction risk. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Led by Roel Brienen, our paper in @natcomms.nature.com "Contrasting pathways to tree longevity in gymnosperms and angiosperms" is finally out and formatted. Other bluesky folks contributing to the paper were @yellowbuckeye.bsky.social and @rmtrr.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Carbon dioxide fertilization drives about 45% of US forest carbon uptake, 66 teragrams of carbon per year, while changes in tree age composition contribute 89 teragrams per year, according to plot-level data from 14 forests. In PNAS: https://ow.ly/P0Tz50Y1Mgh

🚨New paper!🚨 Models predict trees like beech will migrate north as climate warms, but rarely consider tree reproduction. Jessie shows these “refuges” are exactly where climate warming will disrupt seed production the most. They may not be such great climate refuges after all. doi.org/10.1111/ele....
