And there’s something going on with their usage limits being reached really quickly. Might be a cache bug but ppl are raging and rage quitting atm. Reddit going mad 😆

Will have to read that one.

Only thing worrying about this proportion is that it isn't 100%. Knowledge is our work. Our labor. We can't steal it. It's ours.

Lookin fierce mild there.

‘The Ecology of Ecologists’: what, if anything, is ecology? (book review) What, if anything, is ecology? You would think I’d know that – I’ve been a practicing (academic) ecologist for about 40 years. But I don’t. Sure, I know some stuff. I know that ecology isn’t the sa…

Jeremy Fox has a new book out, 'The Ecology of Ecologists'. What's that about, and should you read it? (Quick answers: how ecology's chaos of approaches is a feature, not a bug; and YES.) scientistseessquirre... 🌍🧪

O this is going on my reading list.

Cooperation maximizes biodiversity | The American Naturalist: Vol 0, No ja

Finally! Here is our perspective on why cooperation maximizes diversity and how it promotes additional coexistence mechanisms that do not occur under competition

The level of stupidity baffles me.

Replace psychology with vegetation modeling/ecology/tipping points/alternative stable states.

Too many stories and too many big assumptions without evidence.

This is ecology I fear.

I am happy to share this again!
🎓 PhD done!

I’m sincerely grateful to my amazing supervisors, @peteecology.bsky.social, @mschleuning.bsky.social and @margot Neyret for their guidance, support, and encouragement throughout this journey.

Cheers to the next step✈️.

Huge congratulations to Dr Dickson Mauki @dicksonmauki.bsky.social who successfully defended his PhD yesterday: 'Plant functional strategies and regulating Nature's contributions to people along environmental gradients of Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania'.

Community‐level plant functional strategies explain ecosystem carbon storage across a tropical elevational gradient We demonstrate that major plant functional strategies manifest at the community level along elevational gradients. These strategies also explain variation in carbon storage, although above-ground sto...

Well done Dickson- I’m really proud of your development and and all you have achieved over the course of your PhD journey.

The first of Dickson's PhD papers is published here in Journal of Ecology, with more great work to follow besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

It’s not really a cost, net zero is insurance, against fossil fuel price spikes, heatwaves, floods, droughts, emerging diseases, ecosystem collage and more. A veritable bargain.

Rewilding the Rhine: a new approach to flood control YouTube video by Bill Sutherland's Conservation Concepts

A pioneering rewilding site in Europe entailed transforming the river Rhine. The flood risk has been massively reduced saving billions of euros; the local economy has been revitalised. Delighted to film Wouter Helmer explaining how he created it. youtu.be/gr5YyyCHI4o?...

That’s very interesting.

Also interesting to see birders in their natural habitat.

Ha. Sure, as long as it’s not evilsphere.

That’s exactly it eh. You need to already have the skills to use it well, but you’ll never gain the required skills if you use it.
