New research: carbon farming projects in Australia are predominantly located in marginal lands where they don't deliver benefits to the species that most need habitat restoration and protection. https://t.co/FncSQ5X73x https://t.co/FDb7ENkdzr

Australian ecological communities appear to be pretty fire resilient. New paper out in @JAppliedEcology led freshly minted PhD @GLinley2 (hire him - he's on the job market) https://t.co/qrlw53wpSy

What if, like Norway, we taxed our big corporations instead of taxing students for their education? We could make uni free, fund dental & mental into Medicare, and build hundreds of thousands of homes people can actually afford. It’s been done around the world - why not here?

Phone conversations with @Harryymoore over summer often went along the lines of ‘Guess what I just saw?’ ‘Black-shouldered kite.’ 🦅 Along with other birders we were noticing an unusually high number of certain bird species. We set out to investigate with @Team_eBird data:

I’m more worried about boomers watching sky news than my children accessing social media.

Bloody chuffed to say my promotion to Associate Professor has been approved 😁 Here I am in all my colours. Because I’m living proof it’s not what you look like, it’s what you do and who you are. (Sling for my broken shoulder - because I’ll always be accident prone 😅)

Great to see a farmer implement my recommendations to redistribute rock piles to provide ‘stepping stones’ connecting isolated rocky outcrop habitat of the threatened striped legless lizard (Delma impar). Unique head scales allow us to tell if individuals are dispersing #wildoz

"Pound-for-pound beef might be the most climate-polluting substance people regularly use." "If all American beef were raised with grass-fed methods, it would take more land than we have in the entire country.” Great overview with key studies cited: https://t.co/ZMPymZGl5S

So, 2000 roofing tiles have been in place for almost three months and today we recorded our first pink-tailed worm-lizard beneath one #wildoz @Gulbali_Inst

Increasing land drying & drought will threaten water-sensitive species such as frogs 🐸. We examine the potential exposure risk under different warming scenarios | https://t.co/7DbqVeADRT | @NatureClimate

“My research shows it is a keystone species for native fauna and yet we pull it out of the ground to make perfume … with no thought to its ecological value in the landscape” https://t.co/1dvnrBJ3jN #ThreatenedSpecies 1/2

New paper from @A_K_Cresswell ! 📄✨ C~scape, a coral metacommunity model, captures fine-scale coral dynamics across reefs. Case study from the Great Barrier Reef shows its value for management and restoration. https://t.co/F0UCL3Z7I4

ISBE is a truely special conference. Grateful to @Gulbali_Inst for funding this trip and organisers for the ability to present this forthcoming work. #ISBE2024

BHP is decarbonising in Chile, but not in Australia because...

Today's headlines: -Earth may have breached 7 of 9 planetary boundaries -Climate change is fueling extreme weather & chaos in the jet stream -Last coal power station in UK prepares to close Federal ALP approves 3 new coal mine extensions in NSW

Our new paper examines how Pilbara mammal occurrence varies with fire history. Most species are negatively correlated with fire frequency and some are positively correlated with long-unburnt habitat and pyrodiversity. With old mate @BiodiversityGuy https://t.co/WgMALahiVi

‘Australia’s next rabbit plague’: calls for feral deer in Victoria to be considered a pest instead of wildlife

New paper, led by @DylanWestaway @Gulbali_Inst Translocated reptiles appear resilient, supporting the notion that ‘mainstreaming’ fauna translocations could be a viable and effective conservation intervention. https://t.co/Z5exhIHzUL
