am super excited to share some of my findings this week at #Evol2023. Stop by the Ecology session at 10:15am, Sunday, June 25, to find out how leaf traits and elevation influence fungal symbionts in monkeyflowers. #monkeyflowers #endophytes

This week the Cornell Lab of Ornithology released fine scale population trends maps for over 500 North American #birds based on #eBird data. These maps are the culmination of several years of research and development by the #eBird Status and Trends team, and all this work was only possible because of the amazing community of eBirders who contributed 43.8 million checklists to the dataset we used to estimate population trends.

Trends maps - eBird Science

A new generation of eBird Trends maps, released in November 2022, provides an unprecedented fine-scale view of where bird species are increasing or decreasing. Identifying such trends is the crucial first step to begin identifying ways to reverse pervasive declines like the ones identified by the 2022 U.S.

Faculty are struggling to hire postdocs, delaying research projects and pressuring universities to consider improving salaries and benefits as endowments are shrinking.

#introduction

Hi all!

I'm a quantitative evolutionary ecologist. I bring together theory and data to understand what drives the strengths of species interactions and their consequences for populations and communities.

I'm currently a postdoc at the University of Nebraska, but I'm also on the job market for faculty positions.

I'll be posting about here about my research, being on the job market, and occasionally cat pics and weird ideas.

North America’s Wasp Mantisfly, Climaciella brunnea, is not a wasp, nor a mantis, nor a fly, but a species of lacewing.

Site description

Hello Mastodon! Like so many of you, I'm new to the site and as a #paleontologist interested in mammal evolution, I figured what better way to introduce myself than sharing some of my favorite photos of the majestic American mastodon, Mammut americanum? Here it is, at London's #NaturalHistoryMuseum, Toronto's #RoyalOntarioMuseum, LA's #LaBreaTarPits, and the #DenverMuseumofNatureandScience!

Help me find more #BIPoC Accounts, for me, for you, for everyone on #Mastodon

If you're #black #indigenous or #peopleofcolor feel free to comment, if you like you can comment who you are and/or what you do, so other people can follow you more easily

I will report everyone who dares to comment something hateful or attacks anyone here

Please boost  

Any idea what to do with these? The City of New Orleans doesn't recycle type 5 plastic and I've run out of ideas. #science #lab #ecology #microbiology #stem #MolecularEcology

#introduction time!
I am a behavioral and evolutionary biologist at the University of Toulouse, France.

I am interested in social #evolution. In particular, I study the formation of reproductive hierarchies and the emergence of division of labor in animal societies.

I use #ants as a model system. I combine behavioral experiments and molecular tools.

Fan of Ponerine ants, tropical rainforests, and natural history!
