Imputing missing data in plant traits: A guide to improve gap‐filling onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ge…

Don’t ask questions, if it works: Gap-filling (imputation) of plant trait data is usually evaluated based on distance (RMSE) to input data. Here we tested for induced patterns. Simplified we ask: Is input (side) information = output patterns ? 10.1111/geb.13695

📢There's a new post on our #GeogBlog! Read another instalment of updates from our ICARUS Belize project: blogs.nottingham.ac.uk/geography/2023…

Excited about our new paper on global body size change across taxa. Thank you Inês Martins for excellent leadership and iDiv Biodiversity Research for funding our international working group sTeTra.

Short-term (9 month) postdoc available in my group iDiv Biodiversity Research. We need someone with strong coding skills (R, Python) to build pipelines for geospatial analyses of biodiversity and driver change (geospatial modeling, GIS, remote sensing, etc. skills essential) idiv.de/en/about_idiv/…

Post-doc based in Cambridge to develop a remote sensing framework for quantifying the extent of leakage from forest restoration activities in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and Amazon biomes and the associated impacts on carbon and biodiversity. jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/42667/

New paper product of a wonderful teamwork Juan Carlos Copete Vojtech Novotny Alfred Kik. We review and highlight the importance of Indigenous and local people in cataloging biodiversity on Earth. Thread (1/4) 👇

Our new #MOOC course together with Kristy Deiner Dr Kristy Deiner and Aline Frossard World Surf League on the application of environmental DNA #eDNA for biodiversity sensing and management is open and #free: register now to follow it with a cohort of >500 students worldwide edx.org/course/edna-01x

I am still looking for a #postdoc to join the project. Request folks to please share with their network - need your help to get the word out. Will be extending the deadline for the postdoctoral position. They can email/DM me for details.
