"How many experts are needed to identify an ecological community?" asks @GeoS4m from @NSWDPIE_Water. To reduce uncertainty to 5%, we need at least 30 experts! Some lovely 'textbook' binomial plots in this talk. #ESAus21

Replying to @GeoS4m
@GeoS4m explains how to extract info from experts brains and how many brains to tap into (in case you don't have David Keith on speed dial) and why we should ensure we do it well! #ESAus21

Don't wildlife carers do a fabulous job!? Over six years in NSW alone, 470,000 animals were rescued and 37% were released. Check out more on contributed to animal fate here @NaturesTextures journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…

Trends in wildlife rehabilitation rescues and animal fate across a six-year period in New South...

Globally, millions of animals are rescued and rehabilitated by wildlife carers each year. Information gathered in this process is useful for uncovering threats to native wildlife, particularly those...

Do you want to monitor soil microbe dynamics in a quick-dirty way? Soil surface condition might be a go! Our @GeoS4m @DJ_Eldridge new paper in @Geoderma_Jrnl found close relationship between soil microbe and soil surface health in forests and shrublands.👉authors.elsevier.com/a/1dhe0…
