Bryophyte bothering ecologist
If Europe had been visited by the Americas as opposed to the way it happend would our woodlands have been seen as forest Gardens? www.science.org/content/arti...
Pacific Northwest's ‘forest gardens’ were deliberately planted by Indigenous people
Finding suggests humans have added value to forests in lasting ways

Up to 37,000 children may have to leave private schools because their parents say they can't afford VAT on fees. And four million kids go to school hungry because their parents can't afford breakfast.

In other words: no, you can't "easily tell when someone has used an LLM"; and if you think you can enforce a ban with detectors, you're doing damage.
Can AI detection tools intended to uphold academic integrity do more harm than good? This paper aims to show how false positives unfairly target non-native English speakers and unique writing styles (e.g., researchers with autism), sparking anxiety and distrust.

Basically every ecology paper: "We found a strong link between X and Y at this site, so this is how the world works." The plot.

59% of Local Authorities haven't met existing biodiversity duties under the #EnvironmentAct

No wonder when only 1/4 have an ecologist

For Government's planning reforms to work for wildlife & development, authorities need the resources to plan for nature

Calls for nature-friendly planning reform to support struggling councils
Research from green groups found that more than half of local authorities in England have failed to meet their ‘biodiversity duty’ requirements.

Bryology's Back! Baby!
Hello, world!
I'm trying to (re)connect with all the bryological community on Bluesky. Who am I missing?

Introduce yourself with your worst feedback from school:

I'm Charles. I have a brain but refuse to use it.
Introduce yourself with your worst feedback from school:

I’m Stephanie. I read too much and it gives me IDEAS.
Introduce yourself with your worst feedback from school:

I'm Bethany and I do very well at anything I'm very passionate about, but if I don't care, I will always fail.

That was in a letter of recommendation for a grant application so....

Ah yes the 3rd paper from my PhD. Important traits in Sphagnum aren't bounded by a single shoot. We've known for a while that they are more than the sum of their parts. So I measured both shoot and canopy across the border of competitive species in Sweden.

Amazing new open science dataset just released:
Extensive plant trait, community, and function data collected by the Plant Functional Traits Course in the Puna grasslands of Peru. All of the course participants are co-authors, including the students! 🧪🌾

Six months later I can confirm that this works and I am now a full-blown Crow Lady
It seems to me that the time is ripe for a Bluesky thread about how—and maybe even why—to befriend crows.

How does taxonomy work if we could travel to multiple planets like in star wars? Assuming panspermia is NOT or if it were TRuE? If a planet was an evolutionary reflection of what happend on earth would we call hairy milk producers mammals or would we need a new name?
