Researchers at Cornell University lab have developed a new way to track bird populations. 🐦🔎 By using double machine learning, they have clearer insights to 500+ species. Read more about the Methods in Ecology and Evolution (British Ecological Society) study from Phys.org. ow.ly/cUk050Px78C

Using data from 11 reserves from 2017 to 2021, we analysed the cost & effectiveness of several rhino conservation interventions in the Greater Kruger (South Africa): from fences & cameras to dehorning & tracking dogs. 👇🏽Thread with high-level summary (/10) gkepf.org/rhino-conserva…

After a paperwork obstacle course, I am officially on my first day working Instituto Pirenaico de Ecología! With Gurutzeta Guillera, we'll be using occupancy models to investigate dynamics in bird distributions. Sad to have SEEC further away, but at the same time super happy to start this new venture.

📰 Published📰 Increasing attention has been drawn to the misuse of statistical methods over recent years. Popovic and coauthors show how ecologists can build their research following four guiding principles for impactful statistical research practices buff.ly/3S2gGXQ

New paper alert! Robustly estimating the demographic contribution of immigration: Simulation, sensitivity analysis and seals. SEEC members Murray and Chris Oosthuizen - massive congrats! Elephants seals - Marion island. besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/13…

Can machine learning help us understand freshwater soundscapes? My chat with the lovely Scarlett Buckley via Earth Island Journal on how we are on the edge of harnessing the combined power of large datasets derived from acoustic monitoring and machine learning techniques.

Are you an ecologist working with statistical models? this paper might be useful. Now formally published in an Methods in Ecology and Evolution issue, with many outsatnding colleagues including CREEMinal @ali__johnston with Gordana Popovic responsible for herding the cats besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/20…
