Felíz de compartir www.rasgos.cl en Datos Vivos 2025!

Inspired by an event I attended this week: the number one issue for adoption of data sharing practices is that part of the open science community is unable to conceptualize that incentives won't ever fix the fact that some people just don't want to share.

Y #rae2025 partió en Mendoza! Un tremendo privilegio compartir con colegas de Chile, Uruguay y la Argentina @rae2025.bsky.social

Happy to be in Mendoza with @josemiguelcerda.bsky.social for #RAE2025

Got 40 mentors & 47 students signed up so far. Need more of both, but particularly students. Typical year, we get ~125 mentors & 250+ students. I know this year will not be typical.

Wonderful talk by @saltyecoevo.bsky.social about his exciting work on chemical ecology and urban biodiversity patterns across the Americas #DataObservatory #UMayor

How reliable are model-based blacklists of invasive plant species if occurrence & environmental data are limited & under different model choices? New paper by PhD researcher Valén Holle @jappliedecology.bsky.social #SDM #invasive #plants #Pacific besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Check out the pretty version of our paper exploring intraspecific trait variation across the range of an endemic tree species in central Chile #UndergraduatePower #OrgulloDeSupervisor

By far my favorite paper this year. A collaboration between Mapuche elders—including Machi Patricia—and ecologists, reflecting on building trust and shared understanding in the face of environmental crisis. 🔗 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... 🧵

Help! I’m doing background research on the history of science funding in the US. Does anyone have specific info on how early biologists in the late 1800s and early 1900s US funded their research? I have the general picture but looking for citeable sources & details about individuals.

Join us for a fun and interesting applied seminar with @dylancraven.bsky.social!

📢 #CuttingvEdgeTools Friday, May the 30th, at 2 PM CEST, @dylancraven.bsky.social will close our cycle of webinars on databases with "Key questions in functional biogeography", leveraging regional trait databases and with examples from Rasgos-CL. Join for free at us06web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

The best way to teach the intricacies of estimating biodiversity!

🌍🕸️ New preprint led by the brilliant Fiona Rickowski! We explore how social-ecological networks can transform our understanding & management of biological invasions. From pathways to impacts to action — it's time to connect the dots! 📄 👉 doi.org/10.32942/X2T... #InvasionScience #Ecology #SENs

Wonderful collaboration with some interesting results led by #LauraPerez with @javierlopatin.bsky.social on multi-faceted diversity-stability relationships in mountaint ecosystems: ecoevorxiv.org/repository/v...

Twitter/X got really quiet (and weird) so I finally moved over here...are my fellow ecology/plant eco-phys folks out here?? Give me a follow to bring back that lovely #scicomm community 🙏🌱🤓

If you want researchers coming to your country to learn your language, then you should provide: 1) GOOD language courses for free 2) a paid period of time to learn the language that is not part of the time for the project 2) longer contract periods

Excited to share new preprint by PhD candidate Anna Rönnfeldt „Climatic niche conservatism in non-native plants depends on introduction history and biogeographic context“ highlighting context dependency in climate niche shifts of species introduced in multiple world regions doi.org/10.1101/2025...

2024 has taught me to take life a little slower, with more humility, patience, and kindness. Hopeful to continue evolving with a wonderful group of people near, far and elsewhere in 2025.

Wonderful group to work with - highly recommended!

Thanks for the invitation @biodata.bsky.social, I really enjoyed the opportunity to talk about gaps in biodiversity data

Women are under-represented at senior levels in #academia globally, & across all #science 🧪 disciplines, as shown by these "scissor-shaped curves" ✂️ So how can we ever achieve #gender #equality? We discuss various strategies in this #Cell Commentary #WomeninSTEM www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... 🧵 1/

I'd like to encourage folks to publish their code. Not only does it make studies more transparent and reproducible, but it also increases citation rates! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Are there #Bachelor students around here interested in #sustainability challenges like #biodiversity decline, #climatechange or resource scarcity? You might be interested in the interdisciplinary MSc programme in Science for Sustainability at Radboud Uni in Nijmegen, NL: www.ru.nl/en/education...

Really happy with my recent experience of submitting to ECOSISTEMAS for the 1st time in this new era for the journal. Fast turnaround time (3 mo from submission to publication), 3 excellent reviews which helped me to improve my manuscript. Free to submit, free to read. No doubt I'll submit again.

Se viene la semana de los datos de biodiversidad en la Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Oceanográficas de la UdeC. Si andan cerca, los esperamos en las charlas y conversatorios!!! @dylancraven.bsky.social

Environmental dissimilarity among regions has a consistent effect on turnover also at the level of phylogenetically old lineages while spatial distances that need to be overcome by dispersal only matter for younger more terminal lineages (e.g. species) 🤔
