Late post - pleased to have co-led this work, using long-term ecosystem property & biodiversity datasets to assess impacts of #fire and potential for natural recovery in tropical #peatland. Many thanks to many contributors and supporters!

Thrilled to share our new paper in Methods in Ecology and Evolution that introduces the spAbundance R package for fitting a variety of single-species and multi-species spatially explicit abundance models! doi.org/10.1111/2041-2…

For my PhD, I spent 3 yrs setting camera traps in the upper canopy of Borneo's rainforests, testing this as a survey method for arboreal mammals Somewhat to my surprise, it was successful! kar.kent.ac.uk/97403/ But...

New #WildBoar disturbance research 🐗 Wild boar (fitted with GPS) show frequent flight responses to human presence, but escape distances are relatively short. Findings suggest minimal impact on disease spread (e.g. ASF) due to human activity. Paper here doi.org/10.1002/2688-8…

In 2019, we set 10 camera traps from 65-90m in the crown of the world's tallest tropical tree, with no real idea whether they'd get anything at all They did 🤩 ... 🧵 #Borneo #RainforestGiants

Out today!📣 Pindondang et al. used camera-trap data to predict suitable habitat for Asian tapirs across Sumatra, finding only 36% of the most critical habitat is formally protected. They highlight priority areas for conservation of the Endangered species: doi.org/m6mg

new paper out! Our results highlight the crucial role of forest cover amount for the presence of mammalian species regardless of its quality, the configuration of the landscape or where patches are embedded. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
