El pasado sábado descubrimos los organismos acuáticos que viven en el lago del Parque de Marxalenes, en Valencia. Gracias a la numerosa participación, pudimos registrar 16 taxones de invertebrados acuáticos en una mañana 🔬🔍

New paper out! Using sediment cores, we analyzed rotifer diapausing egg banks to track temporal variation in reproductive success. Populations with ⬆️ variation showed ⬇️ hatching fractions, supporting bet hedging.

If interested, you can find it here: doi.org/10.1093/plan...

Or ask me directly ;)

Thrilled to share our new article published in Hydrobiologia!🎉

We found that hydrological connectivity, rather than pond age, was the key driver of community assembly in coastal ponds.

Many thanks to the co-authors🙌🏻

Here we’re again studying risk-avoiding strategies in rotifer diapausa traits in order to face environmental unpredictability. 👇🏻 the link to our new paper.

Rice is growing, so field sampling in our #BioScaling project has already started. First stop: Albufera de Valencia. Here, part of our great team: Alex Mestre, Bruno Chianese, Pablo Santamaría and @mesquitajoanes.bsky.social

Last week was a busy week for our #BioScaling team!
We attended the workshop "Conserving and restoring temporary pond landscapes in Europe", presenting very preliminary results of our meta-analysis

Tras analizar 30 horas de reuniones de 15 equipos:
👉 Cuando se repite las ideas de las mujeres, mayoritariamente se apropian de la idea y no se les da crédito.
👉 Si las ideas son de hombres, se les da crédito en un porcentaje mucho más alto.

New species of #Ostracoda from bromeliad phytotelmata
Minute ostracod crustaceans of the genus Elpidium are strictly specialized in phytotelmata, small water bodies filling the holes of plants such as bromeliads. A new species of this genus has been described for the first time for the island of Hispaniola: doi.org/10.3897/zook...

📝 New paper published!

Gamboa et al. examine the impact of menstruation on fieldwork in natural sciences disciplines. The survey revealed that 86% of respondents experienced menstruation, with nearly half (48%) reporting significant menstrual pain while working.
