🐾 Our PhD student Yutong Liang presented her first project on lynx excursion behaviour at the Movement Ecology of Animals conference (25 July to 1 August) in Ventura, CA with a poster and flash talk! 🎤📊🐱 #GordonResearchConference #MovementEcology #WildlifeResearch #Lynx #PhDLife

✨ New preprint! "Too few, too many, or just right?" 🌍🌎🌏 We explore how to evaluate study design in animal tracking studies by assessing sampling duration, interval, and, now, the number of individuals needed for reliable population-level estimates. #movementecology www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

To keep Earth habitable, humanity must recognize the value of Antarctica and seek to save it from irreversible damage. go.nature.com/41PkgKn

Published 📖 🥳 In a new meta-analysis @mariusgrabow.bsky.social studied whether subtle infection, traditionally often considered as relatively benign, affect phenotypic and demographic traits. Using avian blood parasites, causing #avianmalaria as an example, we performed a systematic review 🧵

Finally back in the field with @ecodynizw.bsky.social Currently erecting some ATLAS antennas at our new field site 🚀 #movementecology

🐦 Eine gemeinsame Studie von #TUBerlin, @unipotsdam.bsky.social & Leibniz-IZW zeigt: Mit Blutparasiten infizierte Stare bewegen sich weniger, suchen in schlechteren Gebieten nach Futter & ihre Küken sind im Schnitt 12% leichter. Das kann gravierende Auswirkungen auf nachfolgende Generationen haben.⬇️

Starlings really are the most extraordinary-looking birds...
