Species Accumulation Stabilizes the Synchronous Responses to the Environment of Vertebrate Communities Worldwide

How species number, synchrony, species life strategies, and environmental conditions interact and contribute to community stability is still unclear. We compiled a worldwide dataset of time series fr...

Are interacting species showing more similar responses to environmental predictors than expected by chance? Is this similarity protecting species pairs from interaction disruption under climate change? If you want to find out, join us for a fully funded Ph.D. with @epic-biodiversity.org 🌎🧪

ÉPICBiodiversity@epic-biodiversity.org · 3mo ago

Join us! We are looking for a Ph.D. student to work on the response of ecological network structure to environmental drivers; this line of research can be adapted to questions on climate change, phylogenetic conservatism, and more! 🧪🌎 epic-biodiversity.org/opportunities/

We had to restore our vegetation plots in Doñana National Park after the massive flooding event of last spring. Ready for the next season!

Join us for an @smtpb.bsky.social workshop on Modern Coexistence Theory. We'll cover mathematical foundations, the theory of partitioning, and data-based applications. Featuring @swatipatel.bsky.social, Nick Kortessis, & Lauren Shoemaker. Zoom link here: smtpb.org/event-6426026

Ecology faces an accumulation of models but not an accumulation of confidence. Our new paper w/ Jonathan Levine www.nature.com/articles/s41... in @natecoevo.nature.com introduces a rigorous test rooted in queueing theory to falsify inadequate models and build confidence in useful ones.

Rigorous validation of ecological models against empirical time series - Nature Ecology & Evolution

Validating theoretical models against empirical data presents challenges. Here the authors present an assumption-light method to validate ecological models against time series data, along with a dedic...
