Short post on Shannon entropy and the effective number of species. (But, really, about why some logarithms are just better than others)

@stevestuwill.bsky.social you posted on 𝕏 on Dec 5, 2020 this stunning video - why not repeat on 🔵bsky ? (sorry, I did)...
"Time-lapse footage of a vampire amoeba: a microscopic organism that feeds on algal cells by breaking through their cell walls and sucking out their insides."

Women are under-represented at senior levels in #academia globally, & across all #science 🧪 disciplines, as shown by these "scissor-shaped curves" ✂️
So how can we ever achieve #gender #equality?

This is a thoughtful and extremely useful resource for #DataViz.
Welcome all (new) followers! Besides our work on probes & biosensors I'd like to share what I know about #Rstats and #DataViz. So I composed a book on data visualization with R & ggplot2 (it's work in progress).
Target audience = wet lab scientists.

In their 2022 @ecography.bsky.social paper, Palacio et al. suggest an 8-step protocol to make trait-based ecology more standardized and reproducible.
