New seminar series just dropped, this is going to be fun! These are the people I want to hang out with over lunch break 🌮🥪🥙🍙

Young Modellers in Ecology @yomoseco.bsky.social · 11mo ago

Announcing 🍱 Lunchbox Models 🍱 – an online seminar series all about ecological modelling & career insights, hosted by the @gfoesoc.bsky.social AKs Computational Ecology and YoMos 🦊 Find the topics and details as well as access to Zoom on our webpage: www.yomos.org/lunchbox-mod... Please share!

Image shows a poster for the 'Lunchbox Models' seminar series. It shows a sandwich illustration between green boxes with information regarding the seminar series. The left column has general information and the right side has the schedule for the first 11 talks. All the info can be found on the webpage of the seminar series (linked in posting text and QR Code in poster). Several other food item illustrations are used as decoration, e.g. onigiri, coffee/tea cups, and pasta on a fork.

Does body size predict abundance the same way in all environments, as predicted by the Metabolic theory of Ecology? Our new study challenges this assumption. Read it here: 📄 doi.org/10.1111/ele....

Biodiversity modulates the cross‐community scaling relationship in changing environments

Organismal abundance typically declines with increasing body size, with metabolic theory predicting a universal size–abundance slope of –0.75. Using protist microcosms across gradients of species ric...

New paper out in Ecology Letters! “The Imbalance of Nature: The Role of Species Environmental Responses for Community Stability” 📖 Read it here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... We tried to answer the question: What drives community stability in fluctuating environments?

The Imbalance of Nature: The Role of Species Environmental Responses for Community Stability

This study shows that the distribution of species' fundamental responses to environmental change, quantified by a new metric, imbalance, is a key driver of ecological stability. In a large microcosm ...

My commute is ridiculously scenic… Eawag institute on Lake Luzern, Switzerland 🇨🇭. Great place to sabbatical and/or send students for research visits (eg 3-6 months is usually possible).

Starting here in the best way: presenting a new paper. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... Have a look at our new proposed way of calculating response diversity when multiple environmental drivers change simultaneously.

Measuring the Response Diversity of Ecological Communities Experiencing Multifarious Environmental Change

This study explores how response diversity—variability in species' responses to environmental changes—relates ecological stability under complex, multifactorial environmental shifts. The authors intr...
