A bit ago there was a paper or thread making the rounds arguing against Bonferroni correction when looking at many correlations. Anyone remember source?

Where does everyone send their tropical plant samples for species identification using DNA barcoding? Guelph?🙏 Leaves are preferable, but if the leaves are too high for pole pruner, what then? Cambium? Thanks for any leads.

Please pass along, I’m recruiting PhD students to join our Macroecology Lab @uofa-eeb.bsky.social We study phys ecology, macroecology, biodiversity - spanning scaling, trait-based ecology, theory, comparative biology & ecoinformatics. Several avenues for funding. Please reach out if interested🧪🌐🌾

Excited to launch Big Red Pen, grant review services, because NSF funding is only getting tougher, but strong proposals still rise to the top. I have decades of NSF success and 10 years of panel experience. Let’s get funded. #NSF from #GRFP to #CAREER. biodiversityresearchlab.com/grant-review

🥁New paper on microclimate vulnerability under changing climate 🌦️ & forest structure 🌳. Forest structure can buffer or amplify climate warming! Congrats to Joanna Lumbsden-Pinto @sunyesf.bsky.social, @brookhavenlab.bsky.social, @sunyofficial.bsky.social. 🌐🌍 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Sandra is visiting Oxford @ox.ac.uk as a Visiting Fellow at @oxfordgeography.bsky.social @naturerecovery.bsky.social and @oxmartinschool.bsky.social We look forward to many more engagements and discussions! www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPKy...

We are studying adult trees, saplings, and seedling composition in tropical dry forests, rainforests and the dry-wet ecotone in ACG Costa Rica to understand the future of these hyper diverse forests. #CostaRica @gdfcf.bsky.social

Perla proudly presents her work showing tropical dry forest and rainforest species have similar drought and thermal tolerances when coexisting in the ecotone. #ATBC2025 Great job Perla 🎉.

Your periodic reminder: I can teach a 1-week intensive course in Scientific Writing at your institution! I'm fully booked for 2025 but have availability throughout 2026 - click the link for more details. scientistseessquirre...

Really excited about this new collaboration with the group of a great colleague @hulshof.bsky.social. What a nice opportunity for the interns @sunyesf.bsky.social to learn about the @nybg.bsky.social herbarium collections, dry tropical forests 🌳 🌴, & seed 🫘 traits!

Very excited about this! Huge thanks to @DovciakLab for supporting our initiative and helping make it real. #VCU #seedtraits #seedispersal #tropicaldryforests #BiodiversityResearchLab

There are genuine reasons to be cautious about writing with LLMs ("AI"). But as much fun as it might be to type "the plagiarism machine that's burning down the planet" - it just isn't. Before long it will require willful disbelief to think it is. scientistseessquirre... 1/2

Happy Earth Day! - While we measure economies by the flows of funds and transactions, we overlook the flows of carbon, nutrients, and water that sustain life and occur all around us - flows all shaped and directed by biodiversity. Earth Day is a reminder to recalibrate on what actually counts 🌐🧪🌾

Hoy fue publicado el hermoso libro de los 100 años de investigación en BCI. La hermosa portada muestra la Ceiba gigante de BCI con una copa de 60m de ancho! Y en el, nuestra contribución con un capítulo sobre Piper. Se puede ver todo acá scholarlypress.si.edu/store/all/th...
