🔥Hot off the press! Thrilled to see our paper on the use of water-borne corticosterone collection as a non-invasive tool in 🐸amphibian conservation physiology published in ConservationPhysiology! Rafa Rico Paula Cabral Eterovick Ivan Gomez-Mestre 🧵1/7 👇👇👇👇 academic.oup.com/conphys/articl…

Paula Cabral Eterovick gave an amazing talk on how gut #microbiomes might help tadpoles cope with environmental #stress at the #SEH2023 in #Wolverhampton. DFG public | @[email protected]

First microbiome study coming out soon! I was so happy to present it yesterday to a wonderful audience at the #SEH2023!

Guess who won the #herpetology pub quiz at the #SEH2023 gala dinner 🦎🐢🐍🐸☺️

I wasn't at the 10th Brazilian Congress of Herpetology, but I was very well represented by Italo Moreira showing what frogs have been doing in caves 🐸

I’m so proud to know that Italo Moreira is approved IN THE FIRST PLACE to start his PhD at the Post Graduation Program in Ecology, Conservation and Wildlife Management at UFMG!! Lucky me and Paulo Enrique Peixoto 🌈 that will be with him in this journey 🤓🥳📚

Not everything you eat will make you stronger… tadpoles know better! 😄🐸 brill.com/view/journals/…

If you want to know more about my new research on tadpole #microbiome, I'll meet you there! 😄 tadpolesevolution.wixsite.com/ii-iste-2024

Our paper "Pollen as food: effects of consumption on tadpole growth, development, and mobility" is published Open Access in Hydrobiologia thanks to the TU Braunschweig 🥰 You can read it at doi.org/10.1007/s10750…

Paula Eterovick is working on topics such as natural history and behavior, ecology and predator-prey interactions, molecular ecology and studies of the effects of stressors on the development of aquatic organisms. Watch her lecture on February 20th at 2:00 p.m.

Many thanks to all the readers! ❤️

🔥I'm thrilled to share🧵(1/7 ) our new paper in Global Change Biology on the drivers and patterns of acclimation capacity in amphibians🐸and freshwater fishes🐟myron peck @KatharinaAlter Paula Cabral Eterovick @sven_gippner @SJC_fishy , ML Lyra, F Dahlke, S Wohlrab doi.org/10.1111/gcb.17…

🧵(2/7 ) We conducted a quantitative synthesis to explore phylogenetic, ontogenetic, and biogeographic patterns in upper thermal tolerance (CTmax) and acclimation capacity as well as the influence of the methodology based on a systematic literature review.

🧵(3/7 ) We found globally consistent patterns in CTmax and acclimation capacity, with phylogeny, experimental methodology, climatic origin, and life stage as significant determinants of these thermal traits.

🧵(4/7 ) In constrast to the existing literature, we show that CTmax does not primarily depend on the climatic/latitudinal origin of a population but on experimental acclimation temperature and duration, and life stage.

🧵(5/7 ) The most striking result from our analyses is that the acclimation capacity of freshwater fish was more than twice that of amphibians, indicating a strong phylogenetic signal. However, differences in acclimation capacity between life stages were not significant.

🧵(6/7 ) Importantly, the application of different methods (e.g. acclimation duration and ttemperature, ramping rates) changed life stage, phylogeny, and thermal adaptation patterns in CTmax and acclimation capacity.

🧵(7/7 ) Finally, we propose methods to improve comparability of thermal sensitivity knowledge needed to adopt interventions to safeguard freshwater biodiversity in a future climate.

It has been an exciting journey into the microbiome world, and today I’m thrilled to see the 1st of many papers come out, including an issue cover at ProceedingsB! Thank you for being with me in this journey Katharina Ruthsatz,Robin Schmidt, @JuSabinoPinto, Chen Yang and Sven Künzel!
