Intricate dance of nature — predicting extinction risks in terrestrial ecosystems

Have you ever watched a nature documentary and marvelled at the intricate dance of life unfolding on screen? From the smallest insect to the largest predator, every creature plays a role in the gra…

Disparition d’espèces animales : les coextinctions, une menace pour la biodiversité

Sous-estimée jusqu’alors, l’importance de ce phénomène a été révélée par deux chercheurs dans une étude publiée dans « Science Advances ».

Our recent Science Advances paper '#Coextinctions dominate future vertebrate losses from climate and land use change' (https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.abn4345) just highlighted in Current Biology: 'When #ecosystems #collapse' https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(23)00001-5

I agree — past threats have been largely habitat loss/over-exploitation, but their 3rd contention is utterly false: previous #climatechange-induced extinction projections fail to consider #coextinctions. Now we know climate-change will be greatest future threat to #biodiversity as we've now shown: http://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.abn4345

An inconvenient misconception: Climate change is not the principal driver of biodiversity loss https://conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/conl.12868

If you appreciated (I won't say 'like', because there's nothing to like about the take-home message) our recent #ScienceAdvance paper on #coextinctions https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.abn4345, also check out our earlier paper on coextinctions from extreme planetary heating/cooling http://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-35068-1.

No, not even mighty #tardigrades are immune from coextinction

Children born today will see literally thousands of animals disappear in their lifetime, as global food webs collapse

New research finds nearly 30% of land animals could disappear form their local area by 2100 due to climate change and habitat destruction. This is more than double previous predictions.

Artículo sobre #extinciones, el resultado es peor de lo que pensaban los autores.

@goblinshrimp, 4 años de trabajo y un proceso de revisión infernal, pero ya está

Our press release on #coextinctions just got picked up via syndication by bloody #Breitbart, of all places. That should get the #RWNJs' knickers in a twist. Fuck, I hope I get some hate mail
