Great to see conference # being useful again, a real pleasure to follow #FSBI2026 from home this week & find new faces to follow - sincerest thanks to @thefsbi.bsky.social @marianilab.bsky.social @otolithgirl.bsky.social @drwillperry.bsky.social et al for spreading the good news
New @econovoau.bsky.social study led by @jonastrepel.bsky.social: Global analysis shows that #vegetation in semi-natural areas greened (densified) faster w/ higher #Ndeposition - #nitrogen pollution may be an underestimated driver of global vegetation change🌿 doi.org/10.1002/ecog... #globalgreening
Global analysis suggests nitrogen deposition as an underestimated driver of vegetation greening
The local effects of atmospheric nitrogen deposition on plants are well established, yet a global empirical analysis of nitrogen deposition effects on vegetation dynamics is missing. Here, we assess ...

Great to chat with @vdeklerck from @world-forest-id this morning fort a new episode of Atomic Ecology Meets. Isotopes in action to trace food and timber fraud! We discussed how it works, why its important and how you can get involved. Video will be online next week!
Thanks to a couple of recent Ws on the funding front, we have 3 open postdoc positions in Helsinki, Finland in the field of salmonid fish ecological and evolutionary genomics. DL 7.8. More details in advert: jobs.helsinki.fi/job/Helsinki...

Chris Baraniuk@chrisbaraniuk.com · 2mo agoNEW: Helium-3 could be crucial for emerging technologies such as quantum computing and nuclear fusion. But... we don't have very much of it! Today's supply comes from the decay of tritium in nuclear weapons. 🤯 Some say we should harvest Helium-3 from the moon. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Folks, some quick professional news here: After teaching the "Ecology and Conservation of Sharks" course for 5 years at Nova Southeastern, the graduate school has opted not to renew my contract. I'm fine, this course was a small part of my overall income.

Isotopes and food residue show that as people in Kenya’s Turkana Basin transitioned from fishing and foraging to herding cattle, around 5,000 years ago, they took a full millennium to fully shift to a specialized diet centered around livestock. In PNAS: https://ow.ly/NTIa50Z3eRr
So, I've just been bellyaching about the (book) publishing world. So it makes sense to re-up this post, about a super easy way you can support an author. (Could be me but definitely doesn't have to be!). And remove some money from Jeff Bezos' pocket at the same time.
How to give Jeff Bezos less money – and support an author, artist, or craftsperson
Jeff Bezos (the founder of Amazon) has a lot of money. Not “a lot” in the sense that you or I might have a lot of money if we’d just been paid, or received an inheritance, or even won the lottery –…
