If you work in coral reef ecology or indicators of ecosystem function, please take a look at our latest publication in Ecosphere: "Abundance of a cryptic generalist parasite reflects degradation of an ecosystem" (Open) esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiโฆ
ALT A montage of five photos and a graph. The center photo is of a gnathiid coral-reef fish parasite. On the left are two photos of high-live coral habitat. On the right are two photos of low-live-coral habitat. Nestled among the five photos is a graph whose x-axis depicts percent substrate cover and whose y-axis depicts local abundance of gnathiids. There are two curves, one for the relationship between percent live coral and gnathiid abundance and the other for the relationship between dead coral and gnathiid abundance. For both curves, the more abundant the substrate, the less abundant are the gnathiid parasites. But, as live coral is more plentiful, gnathiid abundance falls off more rapidly than it does for more abundance of dead coral.

Meet Jess Jardim-Wedepohl, a #GWHbook #artist. "It's very rare that I have the time available to take on pro bono illustration work, so when I do, you know it's a special project. I was super excited to contribute 4(of many!) illustrations to this diverse, special book.."๐๐๏ธ๐ธ

Take that in. Then try wrapping your head around the fact that weโre only seeing the beginning of a destabilising planet, while remembering that GHG emissions are still rising and the companies largely causing this are making record profits.
A bit concerning, donโt you think?

Our favorite planet has now seen 20 days in a row breaking the modern-day record high-temperature of 16.924ยฐC (62.46ยฐF) set on July 24, 2022.
This global heatwave is likely the hottest 20-day stretch in the last 100,000 years.

Did my PhD on this frog & collected a lot data. 10 years later, with a new perspective & help from colleagues new & old, we put together perhaps my favorite paper from my time in Thailand to date
Many amphibians can adjust hatching times in response to external factors.
For terrestrial eggs, flooding can cause embryos to hatch early.
Poo et al studied this plasticity in rhacophorid tree frogs in Thailand.

Ever heard about crazy hairworms that infect insects and make them jump into water so the worm can get out and find mates?
Well, we sequenced the first genomes of this entire phylum of animals, and learned that they are even weirder than we thought!

Something that should be obvious, but unfortunately most of the times is ignored. Good to see quantitative results that put these daily, chronic, systemic issues into perspective.

How hard is it to do science in a language thatโs not your first language? We quantified the severity of #languagebarriers for non-native English speakers when reading/publishing papers and attending/presenting at international conferences.

Such a tragic loss of an amazing and inspiring person. Gabe was an undergrad in my lab many years ago and was a graduate student at Berkeley. Please contribute if you can.
