With another semester ending, here's your annual reminder that teaching evaluations systemically disadvantage women. Even when controlling for grades and other factors, students (esp. males) consistently give female professors lower scores. This can have serious ramifications.🧵

Our new paper is now out in @consbiog, where we present a new modelling framework - Spatially explicit Adaptive Migration Models (SAMMs). We show how this approach can simulate the optimal behavioural decisions to migrate across open land- and seascapes onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

SAMMs offer an exciting tool for identifying the key threats faced by migratory species, how these species could adapt their migrations in response to environmental change, and the consequences of not being able to adapt.
