🐟 A massive effort by @loic-patanegra-scz.bsky.social, who compiled eDNA from across the globe, expanding our understanding of where fish live.

Loïc PataNegra Sanchez @loic-patanegra-scz.bsky.social · 11d

The second chapter of my thesis has been published ! We gathered eDNA data from campaigns all over the world to see how we could expand known geographic and ecological niche ranges :)

Global species records often underestimate marine #fish distributions. @loic-patanegra-scz.bsky.social &co show that #eDNA surveys significantly expand known geographic & ecological niche ranges, revealing hidden #biodiversity & improving predictions @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/47yRnEk

Maps of the distance to the nearest GBIF/OBIS occurrence for six species detected by eDNA far from their known spatial range and qualified as geographic range filling: the darker the background, the further the cell is from a referenced GBIF/OBIS occurrence. Detections via eDNA in our surveys are represented with orange dots. Distances are calculated by sea, and passage through the Suez and Panama canals is permitted. Species depicted: Chionodraco hamatus, Planiliza macrolepis, Gephyroberyx japonicus, Synchiropus phaeton, Isurus oxyrinchus, Thalassoma bifasciatum.

Functional diversity shapes the stability of reef fish biomass under global change

👉 Trait diversity and redundancy drive stability; human impacts reduce it.

Why do we fear some animals more than others? 🕷️🐍🐊

Check out our study in @peopleandnature.bsky.social with @karlzlr.bsky.social on danger and fear in shaping human biophobia. Fear isn’t just danger—social & cultural factors matter!

Want to list all packages used in you R project ?

👉 Here is the #CESAB rdeps #R pkg frbcesab.github.io/rdeps/

🔑 Principles:
1️⃣ Identify all external pkg used in a project (package, compendium, website, etc.)
2️⃣ List them in the DESCRIPTION file

Thx Nico Casajus for sharing this 🧙 !

🐡 Paper alert 🐡 by @conorwaldock.bsky.social Mismatches and trade-offs exist between the nutrients potentially available in fishes and those caught.

🐡 Paper alert 🐡 A lack of crucial data prevents assessment of IUCN ExtinctionRisk for most species of Marine fish. We used machine learning to infer a 12.8% extinction risk for marine fish species, surpassing existing estimates plos.io/4dXJh9O

Our last publication in Science Advances shows that the reef fishes most at risk of extinction are receiving less scientific and public attention.

Let’s balance our focus to protect all marine life !

We are opening our call for Biodiversity Synthesis projects at #CESAB in the beautiful, Montpellier 🌈, France

Up to 4 groups will be funded for 3 years: 5 (1 week) meetings + 24 mth postdocs !

Generic synthesis: bit.ly/4aC3fW6

Thematic synthesis: bit.ly/4aeEMq2

Please like and share, thx.

40% of reef fishes not benefit from Marine Protected Areas ! top predators benefit the most, but rare large herbivores experience negative effects.

Clearly illustrates how trophic structure is not well accounted for by current MPAs.
