"There has been a progressive decline in fieldwork-based research and education in ecology over recent decades", precisely at a time when we most urgently need a better understanding of how natural systems work. So sad.

Extinction of experience among ecologists
Fieldwork-based research and education in ecology are under multiple threats and are progressively declining. We call for greater attention to this ongoing loss of direct field experience within the ecology community, as it could have widespread consequences for science and education, ultimately hindering efforts to address the ongoing biodiversity crisis.

We’re holding an #interdisciplinary PhD course on ‘science of #conservation’ in South Africa this March.
It involves a range of lectures, group-work activities and a mini-project applying social and ecological tools in N Drakensberg.
Apply here (only a few spots left):

Effectiveness of protected areas in the #Caucasus Mountains in preventing #rangeland #degradation
Using greenness indicators in 52 PAs from 1988-2019 we showed that they’re ineffective in preventing degradation

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?
We discuss various strategies in this #Cell Commentary

🐺 Next week, Bern Convention members vote on the EU's proposal to reduce wolf protections.
Science says otherwise:
1️⃣ Only 3 of 9 sub-populations are "Least Concern."
2️⃣ Just 1 of 7 populations is favorable.
3️⃣ Wolves average 1 x 218 km² is still vulnerable.
