SoilTemp ultimate call for microclimate data! Don't miss out! Temperature, soil moisture, relative humidity... Soil and air... Observational and experimental... All is welcome!

This is really useful: one line of code to get a slider showing a map along with something like a segmentation in a Jupyter Notebook, useful for getting quick preview of geospatial machine learning results for example: leafmap.org/notebooks/76_i…

Re-examining the evidence for the mother tree hypothesis – resource sharing among trees via ectomycorrhizal networks Henriksson et al. 📖ow.ly/eGmB50OkzlC

👀👀"Here we provide guidelines for ecological researchers when writing statistical methods and review frequent errors made in Statistical Methods sections. We highlight some common dos and don’ts". Looks like a very useful paper! esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

So excited to share our new paper on the evolution of primate #masturbation! 🐒🦧🦍 Masturbation is an ancient trait in the primates & linked to reproductive success + STI reduction in males! 👋🍆💦 Less clear for females – we need more data! 👉🌮🌊 royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

New paper....and it made the cover! rdcu.be/dkd82 Led by @BrodieEcology, we combined eBird🔎 + GEDI🛰️ + a massive #cameratrap📸 dataset, finding that SE Asian PAs: ✅ protect birds🦅 ✅ protect mammals🐒 at landscape scale ⚠️if they're sufficiently large

I am so stoked that our paper is now out in Science! In it, we talk about the lack of transparency 100 of the largest corporations in the world have on reporting the outcomes of their #restoration efforts. A thread... Paper here science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Test dataset for our tool (to be published) that extract Spectral-Temporal signatures at plot locations is ready!! :D

Terrestrial LiDAR is amazing and produces gobs of forest structural data. But what to do with it all if you want to see the forest for the trees? Enter 🔥TLS2trees🔥 by Phil Wilkes et al., the culmination of years of toil! besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/20… github.com/philwilkes/TLS…

Thrilled to see our last publication selected as an Editor’s Highlight ✨🌳 Thanks AGU Advances AGU (American Geophysical Union) AGU's Eos and Eric A Davidson! #AGUpubs

📢 Excited to officially announce DeepSensor: a Python package for modelling environmental data with neural processes. github.com/tom-andersson/… The result of a 6-month passion project supported by The Alan Turing Institute . ⭐️ Your next research paper could be a pip-install away. Thread 👇🧵

Deadline to submit a proposal is this Friday, December 1! Proposals should be no more than 300 words, authors will be invited to prepare and submit their proposed articles if they are a good fit for the special feature. Methods in Ecology and Evolution devistuia @BlairCostelloe.bsky.social

Big congratulations to PhD student Matt Allen on winning overall best paper at the Climate Change AI workshop 👏

💧New research evidences that facilitation by a South American nurse shrub is dependent not only on fine-scale factors, but also by large-scale factors such as rainfall & range of distribution: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/13…

🌳 Exciting News! 📚 Just published in nature, my first first-author paper reveals consistent patterns of common tree species across African, Amazonian, and Southeast Asian tropical forests.

Great read on plant architecture, a lot of scope for TLS here

First meeting for the AI for Climate and Nature project including collaboration with Google Deepmind and use of the amazingly powerful DAWN supercomputer. Ambitious plans to synthesis evidence and create an evidence pipeline for policy makers and practitioners. Exciting!

Our latest paper in Heliyon shows that ash dominated habitats speed up leaf litter decomposition🍂resulting in a 25% reduction in decomposition rates if ash trees🌿are replaced due to #ashdieback. Yadvinder Malhi Tom Atkins ECI, Univ of Oxford Wytham Woods cell.com/action/showPdf…

There's a new paper in Ecological Solutions and Evidence on using UAVs to detect ash dieback in individual trees, featuring School researchers past and present (Will Flynn, Stuart Grieve, Alex Henshaw, Harry Owen & @emilyrlines). besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/26…
