So excited to shared this project lead with @fredericddb.bsky.social and many enthusiastic ecologists. We played as predators and prey and with quite simple rules and were able to reproduce phenomenon observed in nature. doi.org/10.1111/2041...

Our 17-year study shows that even moderate winter events (rain-on-snow, melt-feeze) can negatively influence lemming winter reproduction and population growth. 🐹

New: The Specialist Predator Hypothesis is discussed here and David provide evidence that it is not well supported to explain lemming cycles and, de facto, the temporal dynamics of the Arctic tundra food web. However, ermines do have a major impact on it. Find out in the MS how! Its open access.

Arctic hares may be migratory in the high Arctic.
Uncertain what causes this possible migration but resource tracking seems plausible.

No. What happens in Doñana DOES NOT STAY in Doñana.
After more than two years of work, we’ve published an article demonstrating that the poor condition of Doñana negatively affects waterbirds across the ENTIRE continent!

Impressive work!
Hello Bluesky! I'm a behavioral ecologist wrapping up my PhD at Laval University. I use movement data and field surveys to explore how predation shapes population dynamics and species coexistence. Most of my work is on arctic fox, shorebirds, geese and mountain goats. Happy to join the conversation!
