Remembering #JaneGoodall and her life's dedication to understanding primates, conservation, and reaching out to the next generation of nature lovers. There's always a bit of sadness, in hearing about the passing of great figures, but more important is that we remember their work.

As someone working in 🇦🇷 for 10+ years I know that Argentine colleagues always had to face difficult and often unpredictable conditions. But the Milei government is dismantling Argentina's scientific system with unprecedented aggression - www.nature.com/articles/d41...

‘There will be nothing left’: researchers fear collapse of science in Argentina
One year into Javier Milei’s presidency, scientists are exiting the country in the face of big budget cuts.

An important but often overlooked aspect of rewilding or any restoration science is that IT TAKES TIME for nature to come back! We may remove the farm and even seed the land, but what if the little mice, katydid, spider, or bird is 200 km away? Conservation needs to be active!
Rewilding in degraded landscapes may be frustratingly slow to develop rich ecosystems
Because sources of species to colonise are far away
Our idea of restored ‘islets’ could be used
Creating small patches of habitat which ‘seed’ the larger area

🚨New review out in @ecography.bsky.social!
🔥Mechanistic niche models (MNMs) are the future—but they’re not plug-and-play.
Our paper lays out how and when to use MNMs to predict invasive species distributions under climate change.

Powerful yet challenging: mechanistic niche models for predicting invasive species potential distribution under climate change
Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche chang...

I gave my first ADHD talk 2 weeks ago.
Posting now because… ADHD.
But this was also my first step in speaking publicly and raising awareness about what ADHD really is — especially in academic and workplace spaces. 🧠

Can 19th-century land use still influence today’s grasslands?
Our research suggests it can—though the effects are subtle! Led by Gabri Midolo, our new article in Landscape Ecology explores how historical land use shapes the plant composition of current grasslands.

There is a huge potential for #tropical #forest #regeneration, either naturally or through #restoration efforts. Several countries stand out, Brazil, Indonesia, China, Mexico and Colombia. While there is a lot of doom-and-gloom in science, there is also hope.
