#Kundgebung: 04.08. hinter dem #Parlament in #Wien (Reichsratsstraße 2) 21:30 Uhr Die #Klimakrise eskaliert vor unseren Augen, doch die #Politik kehrt uns weiterhin den Rücken zu. Jetzt gibt es keine #Ausreden mehr. Fridays for Future, Scientists for Future, Allianzen... @fridaysforfuture.at
Es sind noch Plätze frei für unser Symposion4Future am 17. Oktober! Das ganze Program und Anmeldung hier 👉 www.scientists4future.at/mc-events/zw...
🌍 How do we measure and protect #geneticdiversity under the #CBD #KMGBF? Selecting the right species is a first important step but also a challenge! At the @worldbioforum.bsky.social, I’m co-leading a workshop on species selection for monitoring. #GINAMO
Can your smartphone stop an invasion? 📱👾 Amalia Mailli (Nord University) explains how #GuardIAS is training the iNaturalist AI to track #InvasiveSpecies, creating a global early warning system. Watch the interview: youtu.be/fC93j1NGEOQ?... #IAS #BioInvasions #InvasiveAlienSpecies

Die Wasseramsel ist der einzige einheimische Singvogel, der tauchen und schwimmen kann. Dafür nutzt sie einen bestimmten Trick: Sie stemmt sich mit schräg geneigtem Kopf gegen die Strömung und wird so auf den Grund des Flusses gedrückt. Dort jagt sie u.a. nach kleinen Fischen und Wasserschnecken.
New #ecoevo paper @pnas.org: Evolution of species’ range and niche in changing environments. I show that feedback between evolutionary and population dynamics can create a tipping point where genetic variance erodes, and species’ ranges contract or fragment www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... #popgen 🧬🧪 🌎
Jitka Polechová@polejit.bsky.social · 2y agoPreprint finally out! I show that eco-evo feedback can drive a tipping point where genetic drift overwhelms adaptation. This can result in a contraction of a species' range border or range fragmentation. Fragmentation is abrupt and arises readily under rapid temporal change. doi.org/10.1101/2025...
