Congratulations, Guzmán Verde for your first talk in a congress on "Alternative approaches to challenge the performance of
species distribution models: a case study with the goldstriped
salamander (Chioglossa lusitanica)" supported by his JAE-Intro grant.

(HILO) 🧵Uno de los primeros pasos para tomar medidas de conservación es determinar dónde actuar. Este mapa que han desarrollado marca las zonas clave para la conservación de los #anfibios, el grupo de vertebrados más amenazado del planeta. 👇 www.mncn.csic.es/es/Comunicac...

Han estudiado la vulnerabilidad de los espacios al cambio climático y las infraestructuras y añadido información sobre las poblaciones más vulnerables debido a la baja fecundidad y a la alta exposición a amenazas. 👇 www.mncn.csic.es/es/Comunicac...

Ever wondered how morphology is affected by climate? Our new paper in Ecography shows sex-specific shifts in body size of European #bats in response to temperature & rainfall across space, but no clear temporal changes due to high variability 🌍🌐🧪

The effects of climate on bat morphology across space and time
According to Bergmann's and Allen's rules, climate change may drive morphological shifts in species, affecting body size and appendage length. These rules predict that species in colder climates tend...

EurSSP1→Only pathway where KM-GBF targets & favorable outcomes for steppe birds are achievable
EurSSP3 & EurSSP4→Lead to “unfavorable” conservation status due to weak governance, agricultural intensification, or land abandonment
EurSSP5→Projects a “highly unfavorable” status for steppe birds by 2050

We have developed a new methodological framework to measure biodiversity.
We focus on the uniqueness (or singularity) of biological communities and apply it to the GBF 30x30 target.

If you only have 4:35 min, check the visual abstract to know a little bit more about it ☺️:

Pues nada, por aquí hablaré sobre todo de la investigación que hacemos sobre anfibios ibéricos. Aprovecho para presentar este libro que acabamos de publicar. Se puede adquirir en la tienda del @mncn-csic.bsky.social y en www.weboryx.com/es/libreria/...

Este paper de la tesis de Fernando Hurtado muestra que la mayoría de especies coocurren o son neutrales a distintas escalas. La exclusión competitiva es menos común, y hasta el 7% de las especies analizadas ocurren juntas más en cojines de musgo que a escala regional @mncn-bgcg.bsky.social 🧪👇#NICED
Macroclimatic niche similarity and species relatedness shift their influence on species co‐occurrence in bryophyte forest communities across scales
The relationship between epiphytic bryophyte species associations changes with scale. Macroclimatic niche similarity strongly influences co-occurrence globally but less so at smaller scales. Most spe...
