The BirdCast forecast map shows migration is very active tonight along the Mississippi and Atlantic Flyways.
How? BirdCast analyzes data from weather radars to separate bird migration from other activity: non-biological (rain, hurricanes, etc.) and other biological (bats, insects).

The first paper of the "Urbis project" focusing on the urban ecosystem of Rome is out in Urban Forestry & Urban Greening!
Here we characterize the urban landscape and propose a multiscale framework to better support urban biodiversity research and planning

Yeah, we get it—humans stress out wildlife 🐾. But how much? Do they find us insufferable equally? Not quite!
Our meta-analysis explores how taxa, species traits, and disturbance type shape terrestrial vertebrates' glucocorticoid responses to human disturbance.

Real nice paper estimating density of rainforest animals w camera traps & comparing w secr & line transects. Great job thinking through all the details of these models. Community density estimates possible w cams but need >25 detections for decent precision link.springer.com/article/10.1...

A ‘how‐to’ guide for estimating animal diel activity using hierarchical models
We illustrate how hierarchical models can be used to estimate animal diel activity whilst accounting for variability in activity levels and sampling effort. These models also allow researchers to mor....

Tough subject and some tough luck, but a far tougher team!
Indeed a great collaboration, and I'm genuinely grateful for the unwavering support of @anabenlop.bsky.social, @lsantinieco.bsky.social, and David Costantini throughout every step of this study. Updates on the paper soon!

Wildlife hates noisy neighbors as much as I do!
Thrilled to announce my first paper, published online in GECCO! We explore how wildlife adjusts its spatio-temporal niche in the short term, to cope with human presence.
