I see 3 white blades and want one painted black 👩🎨
Dead birdies under blades but not if painted black 🎶
But seriously, one of my fave "easy fix" papers on biodiversity x renewables! 70% ⬇️ in 🐦 fatalities in BACI experiment 🧪. #renewables #windpower

A brief explainer on our new paper out in Science Advances where we explore the genome of the incredibly cryptic marsupial mole. Paper link below.

I've just assigned DOIs to 3399 articles in the Journal of Conchology from 1874 to 2005. Assigning DOIs is easy, but the gathering & checking of historic article data takes time (even with AI). All these articles are now discoverable & easily citable: e.g doi.org/10.5962/p.39... #RetroPIDs #BHLib

More than 90% of marine animals caught in shark nets off New South Wales beaches over the summer were non-target species, with new documents revealing division within the government over the controversial program.
More than half of the 208 non-target species – such as turtles, dolphins and smaller sharks – that were caught in the nets over the past eight months were killed, data obtained by conservationists show.

Living with someone who has not been invited to the sky. Currently looking to put them out of their misery if anyone happens to have a spare code 😅. Apparently screenshots of Alf memes are not enough and only fuel their FOMO.
