New paper out now in @ESAEcology! 😍
A multispecies hierarchical model to integrate count and distance-sampling data
Multiple species, multiple datasets, and ONE model to bind them! This was a challenging project & I learned a ton

From drones to DNA, ecologists today use tools that would be unrecognizable to scientists 100 yrs ago—and the same is true of their statistics!
Announcing "100 Years of Statistical Ecology," a Collection of landmark @ESAEcology papers

Check out our new piece on the history of statistical ecology and the role that @ESAEcology has played
This was a fun (and challenging!) paper to write - we learned a lot!

Thrilled to share our new paper in @MethodsEcolEvol that introduces the spAbundance R package for fitting a variety of single-species and multi-species spatially explicit abundance models!

ISEC 2024 will feature also great roundtable discussions, such as:
"Developing pipelines for integrated distribution models"
"What are the key statistical methods and concepts all [undergraduate] ecologists should learn?"

We are excited to share our new @Trends_Ecol_Evo article, where we identify demographic gaps in the authorship of peer review bias research, and touch on some potential solutions to this problem authors.elsevier.com/a/1ikve… (a🧵)
I'm excited to share that I published a first version of my Statistics 4 Ecologists book with University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing. You can now download a (FREE) pdf version of the book here:

Surprisingly good birding for February with people from @EEB_MSU!
Pine Siskins were the fan favorite of the day. Pileated Woodpeckers and Fox Sparrows were also good finds. Full list here: ebird.org/checklist/S1605014…
🚨New paper! We built spatially-varying coefficient occupancy models in spOccupancy to explore spatially-varying species-environment relationships and quantified variation in max temperature effects on grassland birds in the US @ZipkinLab@SarahPSaundersdoi.org/10.1007/s13253-023-0…
I'm so excited to hear the conversation between @pheronym's Fatma Kaplan, @cbahlai, @htlab, and @KelloggBioStn's Alisha Shah about biodiversity science in a changing climate. Join us!
Early bird registration & poster submissions open through Feb 19th: canr.msu.edu/ent/events/EIS-…
