Protective multi-stressor interactions in the Anthropocene: Key considerations for investigating cross-tolerance in a conservation context Species in a human-impacted world face multiple stressors, which sometimes interact in protective ways. Cross-protection occurs when exposure to one stress

In a world where multiple stressors collide, we often focus on their negative impacts on animals 🐟🐸🐢. But what if, under certain conditions, one stressor protects against another? Read our latest paper: dx.doi.org/10.1093/conp... @conphysjournal.bsky.social from our @sebiology.bsky.social session!

I am very happy that our ALAN issue is receiving many nice contributions. I will share them here as they come out.

The first contribution is now online, in which Daniel Gomez Isaza et al. reviewed global ALAN impacts on sea turtle hatchling dispersal.

I will forever be haunted by this footage.

Trawling has only been filmed underwater a few times in documentary history, and never with such clarity.

What’s so heart-rending about these shots is watching how the animals don’t just get swept up — they swim for their lives.

🐢💡Lights, Hatchling, Action💡🐢
Great end to an incredible week of field work. We used a Y-maze to observe the attraction of turtle hatchlings to different lights and intensities. Now time to analyse the data! 🔦 Stay tuned for the fascinating results!

Great to get out for field work on the stunning beaches of Ningaloo, working hands-on with these adorable turtle hatchlings! 🐢 A fantastic team - Michele Thums, Phillips Wilson, Kellie Pendoley - and some exciting results!

Meet the #ICCB2025 Plenary Speakers, a lineup of inspiring leaders shaping the future of conservation! From #wildlife trafficking to Indigenous land stewardship, these thought leaders will challenge perspectives and spark new ideas.

Schematical representation of a street light; abov is a inverted pyramid showing the levels of biological organization affected by artificial light: genes/cells; individuals; populations; communities; ecosystems/landscapes The original figure legend reads: Impact of artificial light at night (ALAN) on multiple levels of biodiversity. The multiple levels of biodiversity are interlinked, i.e., one level of biodiversity may respond to ALAN and modify processes at other biodiversity levels. For example, ALAN may impact the gene expression of certain clock genes, which results in a reduced fitness of individuals and a population decrease due to a phenological mismatch with other species and finally a changed community composition. This may impact ecosystem processes and nocturnal lightscapes (e.g., forests, coral reefs), which in turn influences all other levels.

Yesterday was the 3rd publication anniversary of our 2021 review paper on ecological light pollution💡 AND we also received our 100th citation on Google Scholar📈🎓 Therefore I thought it quite fitting to reproduce the original🧵 published on the other site

If you study turtles, could you please reply to this post or DM me so I can add you to my list of "Fun Turtle Science"?

(Creating a list instead of a starter pack so I can pin it to my feed.)

Great idea, and great list! I’m studying the impact of artificial light on sea turtle dispersal 💡🐢.

Such a great study and super interesting results, which mostly match what I found on fish! I think @kruthsatz.bsky.social presented the work at SEB this year?
