Our paper on crop and landscape heterogeneity and agrobiodiversity in Ecology Letters is now a Top Cited Article (2024). Part of my PhD work and great to see it gaining attention! 🔗 doi.org/10.1111/ele....

Delighted to be part of this fantastic group of new Associate Editor mentees – looking forward to contributing and learning together!

“We’re missing an opportunity to leverage tree crops to address some of the biggest environmental and social challenges of our time,” says Carlos Martínez-Núñez, a researcher at @ebdonana.bsky.social and coordinator of the study. Press release: www.ebd.csic.es/en/outreach/... Article 👇

We are proud to share that recent research from #TEELab at Asian School of the Environment, NTU, was featured in The Straits Times as part of the SG60 special on Singapore’s “City in Nature” vision 🌳🏢🌳 teelabntu.wixsite.com/home/post/bi...

🌿 Excited to share our new study showing that integrating urban agriculture with other green spaces can enhance biodiversity and ecosystem functions in cities! 👏 Led by Emilio, Zeyu & Sihao 📖 Read more: doi.org/10.1002/2688... #UrbanEcology @teelab.bsky.social

So proud of these two amazing Dr's and excited for their next adventures ❤️ 🤩🎓🎉 @teelab.bsky.social NTU Asian School of the Environment first graduating PhD students 🥳 @tharakasp.bsky.social @xinruiong.bsky.social teelabntu.wixsite.com/home/post/ce...

Today, we have a guest post by Tharaka S. Priyadarshana, a Research Fellow, who writes about how adding vegetation to road verges can improve butterfly population sizes. Read the article here: happyeconews.com/city-road-ve... #happyeconews @tharakasp.bsky.social

How can we reform science? I have some ideas. But I am not sure you’ll like them, because they don’t promise much. elevanth.org/blog/2025/07...

Our new paper, based on data from 1,705 studies, shows that pesticides are toxic to organisms they are not intended to harm, including fungi, microbes, plants, insects, & vertebrates such as ourselves. Questions the wisdom of applying over 3 million tonnes of them every year...

Do you ignore the effects of #ConfoundingVariables in your models? Do you remove correlated variables because of a statistical test rather than causal reasoning? If so, read this paper by @jebyrnes.bsky.social and @lauradee.bsky.social! #AcademicSky 🧪🌏 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Ushering in 2025 is our latest publication in Ecology Letters! Through a quantitative assessment of insect occurrence records, insect studies and '#conservation' posts, we identified gaps in five areas and suggest potential solutions to enable insect conservation efforts in Southeast Asia. (1/n)

OK, here is a very rough draft of a tutorial for #Bayesian #SEM using #brms for #rstats. It needs work, polish, has a lot of questions in it, and I need to add a references section. But, I think a lot of folk will find this useful, so.... jebyrnes.github.io/bayesian_sem... (use issues for comments!)
