I’m looking for good resources for a Population and Community Ecology course I’m teaching in the fall. Anyone have suggestions? A textbook would be great, but I’m also looking for solid papers and activity ideas.

I had a great time catching up with friends and colleagues and talking about research from my postdoc #SICB2025.

These light-level dataloggers provided novel insight into basking behavior with minimal interference on our part.

We also observed an overall downward trend in aerial basking as water temperatures increased throughout the summer leading into fall hibernation.

We used light-level dataloggers to compare intersexual variation in basking behavior of northern map turtles across their active season. We found that males and females spent a similar amount of time basking overall, but the timing of peak basking differed between the two sexes.

I'm incredibly excited that this collaboration with my good friend, and former lab mate, @jotten.bsky.social has finally made it into the world!

Drab and distant birds are studied less than their fancy-feathered friends bioRxiv - the preprint server for biology, operated by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, a research and educational institution

✨New preprint!

We report that nearly half of the variation in research effort on 293 bird species in the US+Canada is explained by just 3 factors: 1) visual appeal, 2) breeding range size, & 3) # of universities w/in that range. Here’s what we did:🧵
