📢 New research out: yellow fever in Brazil badly affected annual survival of golden lion tamarins 🐒 and temporarily changed their dispersal patterns, likely through non-random mortality and spatial rearrangement of social groups.

Maintaining high amounts of habitat reachable by organisms is critical for conservation.

#RésultatScientifique🔎

Une étude publiée dans Ecography montre que l'accessibilité des habitats, déterminée par la distance et la facilité de déplacement entre deux zones, détermine la taille des populations animales.

Happy to share a new paper I was fortunate to contribute to about why controlling for habitat amount is critical for resolving the fragmentation debate including @rivaecology.bsky.social among many others.

The amount of reachable habitat determines population fate The scientific community remains divided on the most effective way to design landscapes for biodiversity conservation or restoration. Although there is a consensus that habitat loss is the main cause...

Last @ercscaled.bsky.social paper by @kargote.bsky.social is out in @ecography.bsky.social!!
The amount of habitat reachable by organisms - which depends on distance between habitats and the ease to cross - predicts population size and survival.

Why biodiversity science needs its own model intercomparison projects 👇.
Lessons from climate science, applied to biodiversity & policy. 🌍🧬

Biodiversity science and policy need more model intercomparisons Nature Reviews Biodiversity, Published online: 06 February 2026; doi:10.1038/s44358-026-00134-4Climate model intercomparison projects have been essential in identifying mechanisms of human-caused climate change, but similar efforts in biodiversity science have lagged behind. This Perspective discusses existing biodiversity model intercomparison projects and identifies opportunities for their advancement in the future.

New online! Biodiversity science and policy need more model intercomparisons

Right now in Europe, decisions are being made behind closed doors, trading our health & future for corporate profit.
The Irish Wildlife Trust stands with fellow members of @envpillar.bsky.social & environmental NGOs across the EU to say #HandsOffNature

🎉 Happy that my project BioValidR is in the granted projects!! Building on @ercscaled.bsky.social we will go on exploring the effects of the spatial arrangement of natural habitats on biodiversity in the Plaine Commune area near Paris.
