Back from a incredible week with the International Tundra Experiment (#ITEX) in Sweden! Our team shared key research on how the Arctic is responding to global change. A thread on our highlights 🧵 #ArcticEcology #ClimateScience

🌱 New paper in Diversity & Distributions!
We show that European alpine plants remain largely stable despite warming, with abundance shifts varying regionally. Seed traits offer limited power to predict “winners” & “losers,” highlighting the need for long-term monitoring.

🌊 Rising seas threaten Danish coastal plants—increased salinity hampers germination, and limited dispersal prevents migration. Congrats to @TanjaLazic on defending her excellent MSc thesis! 🎉 Rigorous data, complex stats, and sharp insights. Wishing you all the best! 👏

I've made a collection of eco-evo journals on BlueSky so that other scientists/ecologists/conservationists can easily find and access them:

Science’s ‘Gollum effect’: PhDs bear brunt of territorial behaviour
Nature - Survey respondents at all career stages report colleagues engaging in territorial and possessive behaviours — but early-career researchers are most often affected.

All of NIH funding to Northwestern University is frozen. This pause includes noncompeting approved funding, new and competing grants with fundable scores. No reimbursements for money already spent have been received since March. This situation is rarely reported so please Please get the word out!

Yesterday, for fun, I re-analyzed a chapter of my PhD thesis using an AI platform. What once took me 4 months - textbooks, forums, emailing package devs - I did in just 2 hours. The future is now. 🚀 #DataScience #AI #rstats #AcademicTwitter

Meet Louise Winther, PhD student at University of Copenhagen 🌱 Her research on pollen viability & germination across Arctic & coastal species sheds light on plant regeneration under climate change. Plus, her positivity and humour keep our team motivated! #PlantEcology #PhD

Rising seas threaten Denmark’s coastal plants.
Our MSc student Tanja Lazic studies seed tolerance & dispersal to uncover which species can adapt or migrate. Her work supports restoration, green infrastructure, & flood management. Let’s protect, restore, & work with nature.

Imagine how much better academia could be if those in power genuinely embraced two simple phrases: 'You were right' and 'I’m sorry my mood influenced my reaction.' A little humility goes a long way.
