📣 New paper alert ! 📣
Image-based bio-logging offers unique insights into marine predator behaviour 🦭 🦈 🐧 🐢 and ecosystem functioning, but demands advanced analytical tools. #MarineConservation #AI #ComputerVision #BioLogging

Grateful to the global inter-disciplinary collaborative effort! 🙏 😊

Graphical abstract illustrating four recommendations for ecological modeling with aquatic animals. Be interdisciplinary and across levels: Includes icons for population biology (a bar chart of age structure) and behavioral ecology (a pie chart showing habitat use), plus a zoomed-in illustration of individual porpoises within a group. Use mechanistic modeling instead of statistics as a conceptual framework: A curved line plot shows respiration increasing with temperature, with data points color-coded by temperature and a shaded area indicating stressful conditions. Emphasize realism over precision: Shows a fish in a naturalistic habitat with plants and conspecifics, contrasted with a lone fish in a bare tank. Include stressful conditions: Reiterated through both the curved plot and a separate graph with three treatments, where respiration increases across treatments and with temperature, with the highest temperature range shaded in red.

Excited to share our new paper on how empirical research can better support mechanistic models—through realistic, interdisciplinary data and by embracing complex, individual-level mechanisms. Born from a @ecologicalsociety.bsky.social symposium!

Ancient Poems Reveal the History of the Endangered Yangtze Porpoise Mentions of the critically endangered Yangtze finless porpoise in ancient Chinese poetry have revealed missing information about the habitat of the world’s only freshwater porpoise

Fascinating demonstration of the application of alternative data sources - poetry - in marine historical ecology - to inform conservation & management @oceanspast.bsky.social @projectfishistory.bsky.social @leafyhistory.bsky.social
