Weather Whiplash: How Climate Change Killed Thousands of Migratory Birds • The Revelator Can we help birds and other species adapt to the evolving threat of compound climate extremes?

In Aug-Sep 2020, thousands of migrating birds were found dead in the SW US. Cause? “Compound climate extremes” had pounded the birds until they expired. Climate change increases the threats migrating birds face: heatwaves, storms, droughts, wildfires, etc.: therevelator.org/weather-whip... #birds 🌎

Apex predators exploit advantageous snow conditions across hunting modes Advantageous snow conditions—in terms of snow depth and density—are among the most important features of the winter landscape for two apex predators, regardless of hunting strategy. In a warming clim...

Good morning everyone. Today in "One day, one paper", apex predators like cougars and wolves adjust hunting strategies based on snow depth and density, maximizing their advantage over ungulate prey. Climate change may disrupt these key ecological dynamics 🌎

Podcast cover art for 'Tommy's Outdoors Conservation and Science' featuring a split layout with dramatic coastal scenery on the left showing a lighthouse perched atop steep cliff faces at Rathlin Island against a blue sky with white clouds, and a smiling male podcast host wearing glasses and a headset with microphone on the right. The episode title 'Ferret Eradication Life Raft Rathlin Island' appears in large text overlay on the landscape portion, with 'FERRET ERADICATION' in white and gold, and 'LIFE RAFT RATHLIN ISLAND' continuing below. The entire composition is framed with a gold border against an olive green background, with 'PODCAST' text at the bottom.

What does it take to eradicate ferrets from an inhabited island? @davidgtosh.bsky.social shares the story of the LIFE Raft project on Rathlin Island - from wireless trap technology and ethical considerations to community relationships and why these projects cost so much. 🌍 🦤🧪🦊🪶

Illustration of a blue-skinned character with asymmetrical horns, reminiscent of a half moon. The character is casting a pearlescent, bright spell. They're in a room at night, standing on a decorated pedestal on the floor, in front of shelves full of books.

Illustration of a knight and a pegasus, behind them a blue sky with golden sunset clouds. The knight is wearing shining, ceremonial armour in silver, blue and gold. In one hand he holds his helmet, the other hand is stroking the nose of the pegasus. The knight’s head rests delicately on the horse’s, in a gesture of delicate friendship. The pegasus is raising one of his wings to hug the knight in return of the gesture.

“What happens to big trees—including how they deal with increasing climate threats—is now mission-critical...We can’t simply plant new trees and expect them to confer anything like the kinds of carbon or biodiversity benefits that the old, natural forest is providing.” 🌍

Anything you can eat, I can eat better: Evidence of generalism from species to individual level in an insect herbivore Most insect herbivores specialize on a few host plants; however, there are a minority of highly generalized species capable of feeding on hundreds of hosts. Generalism could emerge as a property of t...

Highly generalised feeding by insect herbivores is often seen as a paradox. One possibility is that generalist species are really just made up of lots of hidden specialists. In this case generalism goes all the way down. 🧪🌏
