Unprecedented synthesis of >2000 studies led by @francoiskeck.bsky.social shows humans are not only shrinking species numbers—but reshaping entire communities across the planet.

Our datapaper "Global Roadkill Data: a dataset on terrestrial vertebrate mortality caused by collision with vehicles" is now online on #ScientificData: nature.com/articles/s41... #RoadEcology @ebdonana.bsky.social

This might be a bit of a hot take, but can organizations that write press releases for new studies please include a link for the actual paper.

Scientists love to read the original articles and sometimes it can be frustrating in tracking them down.

🚨New paper alert🚨 I am ecstatic to share our new paper where we gathered data on mortality in wind turbines for birds and bats in Spain and we generated functional trait-driven vulnerability maps in the Iberian peninsula.

Birds-of-paradise are sending secret color signals invisible to human eyes, scientists say | CNN Birds-of-paradise are even colorful in the dark, with feathers and body parts that glow a brilliant yellow-green under ultraviolet (UV) light, a new study found.

Is it time for a beauty break? I think it's time for a beauty break. Check out the gorgeous glowing plumage of birds-of-paradise, which scientists recently found to be biofluorescent. Most species (37 of 45) have feathers and body parts that glow yellow or yellow-green under UV & bright blue light 🧪

A truth that can’t be valued high enough: "There are numerous examples of how diversity improves the practice of science itself." 🧪 #AcademicSky

Huge shout-out to my colleagues @laranavesalegre.bsky.social and @juanma-pg.bsky.social for pushing this forward and making this happen.

Differential Flight Responses of Sympatric Raptor Species to Weather Conditions and Extreme Temperature Events Flying organisms, such as birds, alter their flight behavior in response to atmospheric conditions, and climate change has exacerbated extreme weather events like heatwaves, impacting their flight. T...

I'm thrilled to let you know that we've got a new paper out! 🎉🤩🥳

This time, we took a look at how weather and extreme weather events impact the flight patterns of three sympatric raptor species in southwestern Spain.

We're kicking off our Introduction to Movement Ecology in R at the @UMH ☺️. 21 students are super excited to learn about animal movement and they're looking forward to spending (and hopefully enjoying) several hours of R coding. @aeetmov.bsky.social @eco-aeet.bsky.social

I'd like to say a big thank you to my friends Héctor and Ana, who I worked with on this project, and everyone who took part in the #WPOTY contest – your photos were a huge help in doing this research.

The new year has brought a new paper out!☺️🥳
We here looked at the risk to seabirds and marine mammals from future offshore wind energy development worldwide. We did this by using potential feeding sites for both groups.
Spoiler: Lower risk areas were located in the Global south and within MPAs.

Yo he notado lo mismo, eso, y que yo, en mi caso, dispongo de/invierto menos tiempo RRSS comparado con antes.

Me parece un poco más lioso encontrar perfiles decentes aquí.

Supongo que aún estamos en un período de transición.

Think #stormpetrels just wing it to find a meal? 🍽️ Think again! Finally, our study is out: these tiny #seabirds use ocean dynamics to find #foraging grounds in the #WestMed. And guess what? Well-placed #MPAs help keep their ‘favorite restaurants’ open.🧑‍🍳 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Qué bueno ver tanta buena gente y compañeros por aquí.

Espero que este entorno sea más saludable y menos viciado que el otro.
