Our plea to ecological interation network (EINs) researchers and managers/decision-makers to _explicitly_ integrate the science into practice! Yes, there's is a LOT of uncertainty, but we've come far in our knowledge about EINs and have far more data than before. The time is NOW tinyurl.com/v3xehmkz

I made one for stats papers

Uh oh phys.org/news/2024-11...

Grant-funded labs are incentivized to admit students who already know how to do research to serve as cheap labor. That puts students who’ve had the most access and resources at a major advantage. This shapes admissions practices more than people are willing to admit but yelling about testing is easy

I am so proud to announce that our 2023 MEE paper won ESA's Ecological Forecasting Outstanding Publication Award 2024. This is a huge honour for me and my co-authors, after many years dedicated to developing tools that help ecologists create integrated, repeatable and transparent modelling workflows

Friday was my last day at the Ministry of Forests! It was a real pleasure to work at the Forest Carbon and Climate Services Branch in the OCF. Special thanks to @colinmahony.bsky.social for the kindness, support and superb mentoring! Looking forward to keep collaborating with the FFEC team and MoF!

I'd expand to librarians, libraries and library contents! We're seeing a decrease in book accessibility more and more and it is worrying! Have we learnt nothing from history books? Oh wait, some of those are "inappropriate" too...

Very interesting and timely read on the importance of primary forests for carbon storage and uptake worldwide: www.iucn.org/sites/defaul...
