Why Common Species Matter: Rethinking Conservation Through Food Webs Conservation efforts have traditionally been focused on saving the rarest, most threatened species, and for good reason. But what if our singular focus on endangered species is causing us to overlook something crucial? I've been…

Our new #research shows that threatened and non-threatened #species play contrasting but complementary roles in European #FoodWebs — #conservation strategies need to protect both to maintain #ecosystem stability. 🧪🦤🌐🌎 #NetSci #biodiversity #ecology onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Happy birthday, Charles… A baby was born 217 years ago in Shrewsbury. This child, Charles, would grow into a reluctant revolutionary. At 22, he set out on a voyage that would change both his life and the course of science. Later, he laid out his ideas in a book. Books have a remarkable power: they…

A summary of our recent #research exploring how #amphibian diversity and threats vary across elevational zones in the #Colombian #Andes 🧪🦤🐸🌐🌎

Ecology in 2025 advanced its technical tools (AI models, data visualisation, and predictive power), but transforming the slow, political systems that determine how that knowledge is actually applied and who benefits is much more difficult.

Alongside the residencies, several events are already planned this year: - Summer School – Unifying Mathematical Models of Biodiversity, July 5–11 intp.science/en/summer26.... - Interdisciplinary Science School, Sept 7–12 - Autumn School - Syntheses in Theoretical Community Ecology, Oct 12–17 🌐🧪🌍

🚢¿Sabías que el crecimiento del tráfico marítimo global supone varias amenazas para la biodiversidad marina? 🐋Un estudio de la @ebdonana.bsky.social destaca que solo el 16% de las áreas con gran número de especies goza de protección frente a la navegación ➡️ https://f.mtr.cool/uaxkxqupau

🌟🆕 At the BES, we believe cost should not be a barrier to publishing. We have outlined how you can use resources like funding, waivers and agreements – including our own BES waivers – that cover the fees for processing and publishing your research. 📖 Find out more here ➡️ buff.ly/irQPJaP
