Happy International Day for #WomenInScience! I’m Lisa Kreye, a HelLO master’s student studying whether species traits can explain variability in birds’ responses to environmental change. Grateful for the mentorship of amazing women scientists like @jellybb.bsky.social and @laurabosco.bsky.social 🐦

Some of these outstanding #womenInscience (on bluesky) include: @inarn.bsky.social @rebeccaralston.bsky.social @josephinecouet.bsky.social @emmamarjakangas.bsky.social @yanjiexu.bsky.social @jjwilliams924.bsky.social 💜✨️💜

Happy #womenInscience day! I research climate and habitat change impacts on biodiversity dynamics at landscape scales @helsinki.fi @nathist.bsky.social @hkilabornithology.bsky.social Super grateful for all amazing female researchers, be it mentors, colleagues or students! #minätutkin ⬇️

Happy International Day of #WomeninScience! Fantastic women scientist are working in the my research group @hkilabornithology.bsky.social @nathist.bsky.social @helsinki.fi! Please have a look at what kind of research topics they have: youtu.be/-J4sjwulT04 1/2

Our research was picked up by the top Swedish newspaper! @dagensnyheter.bsky.social interviewed @josephinecouet.bsky.social on elevational shifts of birds in the Swedish (and other European) mountains.Utmärkt! www.dn.se/varlden/klim... @hkilabornithology.bsky.social @helsinki.fi @nathist.bsky.social

Nämä kiipeilijät ovat viihdyttäneet ohikulkijoita @nathist.bsky.social edessä jo pari viikkoa. Teos muistuttaa siitä miten lajit siirtyvät ylemmäksi vuoristossa #ilmastonmuutos takia: tänään puolustettavan @josephinecouet.bsky.social väitöskirjan perusteella nopeus on n 1 m/vuosi. @helsinki.fi

Symposium "Species on the move" next Thr in Viikki @helsinki.fi Great speakers Maria Delgado, @juliakemppinen.bsky.social @andreasantangeli.bsky.social @emmamarjakangas.bsky.social! Organised by @josephinecouet.bsky.social who will defend her PhD thesis on Friday! @hkilabornithology.bsky.social

A new study has examined the response of mountain-dwelling birds across Europe to climate change:

Climate change drives Europe's mountain birds further uphill

Many bird species have moved towards colder areas in the mountains of Europe as the climate has warmed over the past two decades.

Nice news summary of @josephinecouet.bsky.social 's paper on range shifts of mountain birds in Europe: phys.org/news/2025-12...

Birds shift to higher mountain elevations in Europe as climate warms

Many bird species have moved toward colder areas in the mountains of Europe as the climate has warmed over the past two decades. Sunny southern slopes attract birds to live at higher elevations than d...

Ilmastonmuutos laittaa linnut liikkeelle Euroopan vuoristoissa eivätkä mikroilmasto-olosuhteet puskuroi näitä muutoksia. Uusi artikkeli on osa @josephinecouet.bsky.social väitöskirjaa, mukana myös @andreasantangeli.bsky.social @aksulehikoinen.bsky.social

Linnut siirtyvät korkeammalle vuoristoissa ilmaston lämmetessä | Helsingin yliopisto

Monet lintulajit ovat siirtyneet Euroopan vuoristoissa kohti kylmempiä lakiosia samalla kun ilmasto on lämmennyt viimeisen kahden vuosikymmenen aikana. Aurinkoiset etelärinteet houkuttelevat lintuja e...

Uusi tutkimuksemme: eurooppalaiset linnut siirtyvät vuoristoissa yhä korkeammalle ilmaston lämmetessä. Siirtymät ovat tapahtuneet yhtä nopeasti niin vuorien varjoisilla kuin aurikoisilla rinteillä.

Super happy to see the second paper of my PhD out! Check it out, it is about birds' responses to climate change in European mountains! ⬇️

New paper out about elevational shifts in European birds lead by @josephinecouet.bsky.social: "Solar Radiation Affects Bird Distributions but Not Elevational Shifts in European Mountains" onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... @emmamarjakangas.bsky.social @andreasantangeli.bsky.social @ebcc.info

Global change reshuffles species communities: who could interact with whom? We introduce new ways to measure the capacity of species & communities to rewire interactions, which can be used to predict how ecological networks might adapt to changing conditions. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
