Check it out! We show the potential for improving biodiversity in tree plantings relative to business-as-usual (planting the same common species repeatedly). Led by Olivia St-Laurent (honours McGill Biology) with Karel Mokany CSIRO. New plantings dataset appliedecologistsblog.com/2023/01/06/for…

Super excited to part of the Center in AI and Biodiversity Change with some brilliant Canadian and US collaborators! We are building an early warning system for northward colonizing species and strengthening the link between ecology and AI mcgill.ca/channels/chann…

Breaking news! Research out today, led by EDGE’s @rikkigumbs and published in Science Advances, shows that prioritising evolutionary history can be a viable strategy for conserving utilised bird species and maintaining benefits to people. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Thread (1/10)

Day two of our #allhands meeting is underway. Starting the morning with an #ideation session on mapping the abc universe. Who are our partners, what are our points of connection, what future directions exist?

Fantastic opening keynote by Laura Pollock at CSBQ-QCBS conference #CSBQ2024 “The subtle art of forecasting #biodiversity change” Rich insights on the strengths + limits of species distribution models for projecting and protecting Canada’s biodiversity (eg. 30 x 30).
