Need to analyze animal tracking data in R? Just out, our (Anne Scharf & Safi_Lab @[email protected] ) paper in Methods in Ecology and Evolution describing the R package move2 (bartk.gitlab.io/move2/) for analyzing movement data, including reading data directly from Movebank. doi.org/10.1111/2041-2…

Bats enjoy the crowd when foraging, but keep away when it's too dense Check out our new paper by Xenia K., Aya Goldshtein, Jens Koblitz, Katarina Biljman and Antonio Guillén-Servent pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… Photo by Brock and Sherry Fenton

It’s no secret that animals see, hear, and smell differently to humans. Yet when we design experiments to test animal behaviour, we often inadvertently use ourselves as a reference point. A new #ProcB paper investigates these biases: ow.ly/sZIt50SEkNV Joanna Brebner

Nightlights is the most widely used geospatial dataset to measure economic activity. However, there are a number of limitations with them. Here's an overview of them (plus how to address them):

Join the seminar to see how crickets may have evolved strategies to solve the Cocktail Party Provlem. One of the many examples of how animals may have evolved simple solutions to complex problems.

Mark your calendars for next Saturday for this promising conversation! I will be having with me Harish Prakash whose research has been associated with some fascinating creatures, and bats are one of them! Together we'll dive through his research journey, field stories and more

🦗🍹 Don't miss out! Join us in just a few hours for our online seminar "How do crickets deal with the Cocktail Party problem ?" by Dr. Manjari Jain from Behavioural Ecology Lab (BEL @ IISER Mohali) on YouTube! 🖥️ See you there! 🔉🦗 #OnlineSeminar 📅 Time: Today 2pm GMT 📺 Link: youtube.com/watch?v=wO_f9_…

Excited to share our latest paper from Dr. Jasmin Camacho 🦇🔬☠️🧠☀️ and Andrea Bernal Stowers Institute. It’s the labs first dive🐟 into mammalian biology, and the findings are sweet🌸🍯. We found that nectar🦇 tolerate the highest ever recorded blood sugar. Check it out! nature.com/articles/s4155…

Cleaner shrimps remove ectoparasites from reef🐠clients. Eleanor Caves Alexander L Davis Sonke Johnsen discovered that🦐antennae increase the reflectance by nanoscale ultrasctructures. This may attract clients🐠as the ultrastructure is absent in non-cleaning 🦐. journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/do…
