More than 30 researchers question the scientific, ethical, and legal validity of a method that involves the use of live decoys #birds to conduct censuses.
This method would be helping to give the return of 'silvestrismo' a scientific appearance. #ornithology

🚨 PhD opportunity in evolutionary genomics
Interested in working with ancient DNA and genomics of carnivores to study adaptation to human-dominated landscapes?
I’m looking for a candidate to apply for an FCT PhD fellowship (Portugal).
📅 Deadline: 31 March
Feel free to contact me for details! 🐺🐻🦊🧬
A new era for #ONT amplicon sequencing?
We show that #ONT #amplicon sequencing now achieves accuracy sufficient for #ASV resolution using standard Illumina-based pipelines. We validated this by sequencing identical amplicons on #ONT and #PacBio. @nanoporetech.com www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
NEW STUDY: Winter downpours are getting heavier in parts of Spain, Portugal and Morocco as the region recovers from a month of relentless storms.
Between mid-January and mid-February nine named storms brought torrential rain hurricane force winds causing major damage and disruption. 1/5

"Matar 100 lobos, como ya ha sucedido en los montes asturianos y cántabros, es una muestra de populismo rural que desprecia el conocimiento científico y la ética. " por @ernestodmartin.bsky.social @fondolobo.bsky.social

Giving rivers room to move, can benefit people and nature.
As climate change increases the frequency and intensity of extreme floods, rethinking our approach to managing floodplain rivers has never been more urgent.
floodplain river systems are among the most valuable ecosystems.

Estos días vas a oír a gente diciendo que no hay evidencia científica para proteger a la anguila
@sibic.bsky.social ha enviado a todas las CCAA esa evidencia
Te la resumo en un hilo
1- Lista Roja Española
2- Lista Roja Global
3- Informe ICES 2025
4- Dictamen CC
@miteco.gob.es @ebdonana.bsky.social
🔵 La supervivencia de la angula no tiene precio.
El próximo día 17, en el comité de flora y Fauna, propondremos a las CCAA declarar la anguila en peligro de extinción.
Gracias a los científicos, asociaciones ecologistas y cocineros de Euro-Toques por su apoyo.

A William Schockley le otorgaron el Nobel de Física en 1956 por sus investigaciones con semiconductores e inventar el transistor, y luego dijo que los negros estadounidenses eran menos inteligentes que los blancos por genética.

🚨 La anguila europea está fuera de los límites biológicos seguros. Su declive tiene múltiples causas, pero hoy no existe ninguna pesquería sostenible. Por eso @icesmarine.bsky.social recomienda cero capturas. Lo explico en este artículo del @elespanol.com @azti.bsky.social ⬇️ shorturl.at/j1uTN

It shows up when you don´t need it and vanishes when you look for it.
