Congrats to @AmberCowans and @abonetb on this important contribution. It was an absolute pleasure watching you both operate, and terrific to see this work from your Stats Ecology MSc out! 💯
📝 Are you using multispecies occupancy models to investigate interactions in species occupancy (i.e. co-occurrence)? 🦁🦓 Check out our new paper for advice on the number of sites you need to reliably detect interactions under different scenarios

My first @ConversationUK article with @Jackbamberzool1 and Xavier Lambin: "A surprisingly effective way to save the capercaillie: keep its predators well-fed – new research” https://t.co/qV8teMZ9iv
theconversation.com
Evidence suggests this alternative to culling the bird’s predators is effective.

🚨 New publication: https://t.co/2xijgHnhNa 📝 Out today in the @royalsociety proceedings B. We find that diversionary feeding boosts productivity of cappercaille from 0.82 to 1.90. Indicating that this impact based method can effectively reduce the influence of predation.

Looking for your first quantitative ecology post-doc? Then get in touch. I will be co-supervising a post-doc with Lourens Swanepoel (based in SA: @Univenofficial). You will have access to many awesome data sets and the focus will be on applying hierarchical models.

Super important new research showing widespread anthropogenic filtering of tropical forest mammals even within protected areas:
journals.plos.org
Tropical forests hold most of Earth’s biodiversity and a higher concentration of threatened mammals than other biomes. This study uses a standardized pan-tropical dataset of 239 mammal species from...
