New pre-print! We looked at whether phenotypic plasticity towards environmental cues only present in ancestral habitats (past-cue plasticity) promotes rapid adaptation to completely different cues in new habitats. doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

How is #lightpollution impacting coastal wildlife? Our latest work shows how ALAN interacts with lunar & cloud conditions to influence distribution and migratory behaviours of sandhoppers. Congrats to Leo Burke a summer of sleepless nights to get this! 📖bit.ly/45mtHS5

Another way to deal with publication bias that might be plaguing your meta-analysis. Wonderful work by Yefeng, with an awesome team (Shinichi Nakagawa | 中川震一 Coralie Williams et al.) we even have a new plot to visualise it in the orchard package. Check it out in Methods in Ecology and Evolution

It’s no secret that animals see, hear, and smell differently to humans. Yet when we design experiments to test animal behaviour, we often inadvertently use ourselves as a reference point. A new #ProcB paper investigates these biases: ow.ly/sZIt50SEkNV Joanna Brebner

We have a bunch of paid work coming up doing species identification work. If you can ID bats, birds or frogs from audio, plants from images, or mammals from camera traps - apply using your form and we will be in touch! 🐦🦇🐸🌿 researchgate.net/job/1013726_Ec…

Delighted to share our new perspective article Journal of Evolutionary Biology: rising evidence suggests unexpectedly robust link btw micro- and macroevolution. It challenges past views of evolution and calls for interdisciplinary research. #Evolution #EvoDevo #Paleontology 1/7 doi.org/10.1093/jeb/vo…
