With Ecoinformatics IAVS (Ecoinformatics IAVS), this afternoon, I will introduce how to use Git and GitHub to make your science reproducible ! Slides are available here: frslry.github.io/git_pres/

First paper related to my project #COCOS out in Journal of Ecology! We used time-series of plant biomass from the Biodiversity Exploratories Research to assess how biodiversity🌱relates to grassland resistance and recovery under extreme drought🔥 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Department of Spatial Sciences doi.org/10.1111/1365-2… More info👇

New preprint: Our attempt to link local individual-level ecological processes (Allee effect, Janzen-Connell hypothesis) with different rates of species loss at different spatial scales (thnx to Adam Clark, François Leroy, Vojtěch Barták): biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The blog post about our paper on the resistance and recovery of grasslands under extreme drought is finally out on the blog of Journal of Ecology. Special thanks to Petr Keil, who gave the post the right touch to make it enjoyable for a wide audience! #COCOS Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Department of Spatial Sciences

Very nice opinion paper in Trends in Ecology & Evolution by Corey Callaghan, Luca Santini, @BecksSpake , and @BowlerDBear showing that most abundance estimates are relative estimates. They argue for more attempts at estimating absolute abundance sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Does conservation work? Our paper by Re:wild shows that it does: a global analysis of 665 trials (incl. several by RSPB Science) found that conservation improved the state of biodiversity or slowed declines in two-thirds of cases BirdLife Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…


Very good news! Our new review paper lead by Dr. Moudrý is published in Ecography. Take a look to dive into sample size, positional uncertainty, sampling bias, and species ecology individual and combined effects on Species Distribution Models. nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ec…



🚨 New paper out! Our work on the range dynamics of five Neotropical carnivores over two decades reveals significant declines in the area of occupancy for most species. ⌛️🌎🐈⬛🦦 Read it here: doi.org/10.1016/j.gecc… #GlobalEcologyAndConservation Petr Keil Department of Spatial Sciences ČZU
