I am looking for a PhD student to join our work at @CASUSscience and work on ecological pattern formation. The project is not tied to a specific system, and options range from microbes to vegetation in water-limited ecosystems. Starting date is Feb 2025 and app. deadline Nov 22.

It's not just #temperature that drives changes in marine species distributions... #oxygen and prey are important as well. Online early and open access in @GlobalChangeBio, led by the very talented @wajrajeew !

I want to take a moment to acknowledge international students:
The constant worry & energy spent working on immigration documents
Being excluded from funding opportunities valued for postdoc & faculty positions
And the emotional toll of being away from family

Uneven genetic data limits biodiversity assessments in PAs globally but not in data-rich areas. Increased efforts to gather, harmonize & share existing population-level nuclear genetic data can inform area-based conservation initiatives. New preprint here: doi.org/10.32942/X2ZC84

Genetic diversity is the foundation of biodiversity and now a global conservation priority, and yet there is much work to be done to understand where and in which species it is being lost or conserved!

Fear alone is not enough to motivate climate action; if people are afraid but don't know what to do, they will do nothing. That's why it's essential to communicate both the risks of inaction (the bad news) the potential of action (the good news) in equal proportions.

#popgentwitter Has anyone run LFMM with genotype likelihoods? Seems like it should be possible.

New paper about attrition of women in Academia has some interesting results under the hood. Higher rate is driven by non-STEM fields, low prestige unis, and largest for full profs. Attrition lower or equal for STEM women at top unis (B-D). Thoughts on why?

What will recovering whale populations look like in a changing climate? So happy to see our paper on gray whale population dynamics out today in @ScienceMagazine! We show that gray whales go through major boom and bust cycles in response to dynamic and changing Arctic conditions.
