Let's act on this #ecology falks, should be easy! 🔹1/4 of articles (at best) in ecology publish their analytical #code 🔹1/5 (at best) is #reproducible (data+code there) estimated by Simon Evans Alfredo Sánchez-Tójar, vanBerg, me PLOS Biology More @ dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa… ⬇️ 1/7

We are excited to announce that the FSBI Medal has been awarded to Dr Christos Ioannou Christos Ioannou for his exceptional advances as an early career researcher in the study of fish biology and/or fisheries science! bit.ly/3nFsiP0 #FishSci

Patterns of pop. differentiation are often attributed to distinct glacial refugia. Yet @EleanorFMiller et al. show observed gen. diversity in the Yellow Warbler resulted from asymmetric expansion from a single cohesive range. Range dynamics are important! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

1/4 Our #newpaper shows how young albatrosses 🪶respond to new environments as they disperse from their natal colonies🥚(spoiler: winds 🌬️ + food 🐟are important drivers of movement) Nordic Society Oikos Evolutionary Ecology Group, Cambridge @tommyturtleclay Andrea Manica British Antarctic Survey 🐧 Government SGSSI onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/oi…

2/4 #birds (n=23) were #tracked for up to 10 months in 2018 & 2019, during which time 1 bird almost conducted a complete global circumnavigation! 🪶🪶🪶

3/4 During initial dispersal, #birds used tail winds to support fast directed flight towards good foraging areas 🐟🐠where pelagic longline tuna fishing is also important 🎣 -> You can read about the conservation implications by clicking the link below ⬇️ sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

4/4 Establishing drivers of #movement is crucial for understanding age-related survival rates, & for marine predators 🌊, the link between #fisheries overlap and incidental mortality (#bycatch), which is driving↘️in many taxa (eg the white-chinned petrel onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…)
