Sexual ornaments often increase access to reproductive opportunities, but may also allow gain of survival benefits from social partners of the opposite sex. Our model shows this may result in ornamentation in female animals: Watts & Fitzpatrick ow.ly/6pjh50TJCSQ

Do you LOVE Thermal Performace Curves? Has your thirst for TPC models not been quenched by rTPC+ nls.multistart (besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…)? Then check this out! nature.com/articles/s4146… Thanks to @DGKontopoulos for conceiving and leading this model fitting madness!

New paper w/ Josh Hall and Chris Thawley in Biological Journal of the Linnean Society Cuban brown anoles (Anolis sagrei) and Puerto Rican crested anoles (A cristatellus) are outstandingly convergent in ecology, morphology, and behavior... ..but what about their life histories? 🥚🦎 academic.oup.com/biolinnean/art…

New paper out in @ASNAmNat with Reinhard Bürger and Maria Servedio: "Reconciling Santa Rosalia: Both reproductive isolation and coexistence constrain diversification" (1/11) journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/73…

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…

Thankyou Masahito Tsuboi for leading this author team behind this paper in Journal of Evolutionary Biology! I am very excited about this and a proud member of the team. We now hope that we have made colleagues aware of an important bridge between micro- and macroevolution: academic.oup.com/jeb/advance-ar…

🚨 COOL JOB ALERT! 🚨 Come work with me and the wonderful faculty and students at SUNY Oswego! We need a tenure-track Botanist! This is a pretty broad search, but we'd like someone who can teach systematics/taxonomy. Please spread the word! DMs open. oswego.interviewexchange.com/jobofferdetail…

Super thrilled to be shortlisted for the 2024 British Journalism Awards by Press Gazette for my work in The Guardian reporting on ocean issues from the Philippines, Hong Kong, and Norway! 🐟🪸🌊

CU Denver and Outside just opened a high-tech gear-testing lab! With machines like the “Time Machine” for footwear, students and researchers are pushing products to the limit. Could this change how you choose your next running shoes? 👟 Learn more here ⤵️ ucdenver.info/outside-lab

The informal poll results are in, & as I feared, most people are running ANOVAs in #R with functions that can give highly misleading (or flat out wrong) results. Follow along to see why using anova() and aov() is usually inadvisable & why you should be using car::Anova() 🧵

As temperatures rise, insects adapt—but at a cost. 🐞 CU Denver’s Michael Moore studies how warming impacts insect color and survival to affect mating and camouflage. Learn more here ⤵️ ucdenver.info/insects

At #SICB2025, and excited to be sharing my lab's work about aerobic constraints on mate competition in high-elevation dragonflies! Sunday Jan 5 at 2:30 in Ecophysiology: thermal effects session (International Salon 4)
