1/2🧵How do different journals deal with academics that work part time? For example, I was offered a editorial position with a journal that gives you 5 days to provide, at times it appears, full reviews. Do journals expect...

1/4 I am not done yet but…I’m prepared to call it… 🚨My FAVOURITE #PhD chapter is out NOW in Ethology! 🚨 Seabird pairs with similar personalities ➡️ are better parents ➡️ decreasing their re-pairing risk #OpenAccess 👉 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… @SEG_UL #Seabirds @ACCE_DTP

A new @Env_Sci study provides first evidence that wandering albatrosses may use infrasound to help them navigate long and featureless foraging trips ➡️ bit.ly/45tqNJC

A nice summary of our work from @ScienceMagazine : ‘Voice of the sea’ may help albatrosses catch the perfect wind | Science | AAAS science.org/content/article/… @SamCPatrick @jdassink @MabLabUF @tommyturtleclay @rocio_joo @HenriWeimerski1 @MarioZampolli @jeff_zeyl

‘Voice of the sea’ may help albatrosses catch the perfect wind

Low frequencies emitted by crashing waves may guide the birds to wind conditions that keep them aloft on long-distance flights

'Loud' infrasound occurs in wavy 🌊 and windy 🌬️ areas. Could this help albatrosses find long-distance conditions that help them to fly efficiently? 2/n

Excited to see our new paper, led by myself and @luciamartinaml, published in @PNASNews! We look at movement trajectories of wandering #albatross and find they orient towards to v low frequency 'infrasound' 1/n

It took 6yrs but out today @PNAS 1st evidence infrasound is a reliable cue for movment decisions tinyurl.com/53betb2n Read our persepctive on how & why here tinyurl.com/4c4h4ca5 & how infrasound might be heared here tinyurl.com/42uws2ae. Huge thanks to @HFSP for funding

Is it standard practice for UK Universities to require non-UK external examiners to have a visa or just @LivUni
