New OA paper alert 🎉 We show how varying phenology can influence range shifts via effects on population dynamics, and demonstrate how this may be mediated by differences in the strength of biotic interactions https://t.co/kJrZNEhTNM in @royalsociety Proceedings B

We're offering a PhD place on Rewilding! This PhD will study the wilder grazing at Purbeck Heaths ‘Super National Nature Reserve’, which is shifting towards the restoration of natural processes to create a more dynamic, complex landscape https://t.co/pHZmT6TNRo

🚨NEW exciting PhD opportunity... 🚨 designing effective habitat networks for species conservation #biodiversity #conservation #restoration A fab supervisory team from University of Liverpool, @NaturalEngland , @savebutterflies (me!!) and @UK_CEH https://t.co/jTjfY7winL

New paper out showing how pulses of blue-white lights (such as those in modern car headlights) cause more harmful responses in moths compared to warmer coloured light pulses. https://t.co/vWBaHrDbHF

It's a difficult choice for #favouritefind, I've had a fabulous year of botany. I think my first trip to Scilly and seeing Dwarf Pansy (Viola kitaibeliana) for the first time has got to be up there though 😍 #wildflowerhour

39th year monitoring Silver-spotted Skipper (Hesperia comma) eggs at Beacon Hill in Hampshire, southern England. Is this the longest running butterfly egg count?? Veg v tall this wet year but a few eggs about. 2 in this pic! @savebutterflies @HantsIoWBC @NaturalEngland

We're really struggling to get someone to talk about evidence-based conservation from a Global South perspective for our session at #BES2024. If you're going to the conference and could give a talk on this topic, could you get in touch?

The good news is that there is an opportunity right now to make that happen. It’s a tiny case study, but the farmers in our mid-Cornwall badger vaccination area saw TB declining in badgers, and they are delighted with the approach https://t.co/Uu237rVJWc 15/25

I’m seeing a lot of anger and disappointment in badger circles today that the badger cull is ending, but not ending fast enough. Apologies for the long thread 🧵, but tet me explain why I think the news is the best it could be 1/25

Are you interested in ecology and looking for an internship in the Swiss Mountains? We are looking for a motivated candidate to explore with us the effects of novel plant consumers on plant communities, and work with us in the @BugNet_research in Davos. https://t.co/XkddUYU10E

Congratulations go to our dedicated FX Grounds team, whose hard work has seen Penryn Campus win its seventh consecutive #GreenFlagAward. Each year, the FX Plus teams implement a plethora of #greeninitiatives, which have all contributed to this years’ award. #KeepBritainTidy

Download our new 'Pavement Plants' guide here: https://t.co/AZa55DWEdB. It contains >90 species from >30 plant families. To make identification easier, it is arranged by flower colour, and includes phenology charts to indicate when you might see each plant in leaf and bloom.

Violent riots by groups associated with far-right networks have erupted in the UK. Social media videos of groups setting fire to hotels, police vans and breaking into shops are everywhere. It’s important to archive this material so it doesn’t disappear. Here's how to do that… 🧵

Mobilise to defend immigration lawyers, refugee charities and asylum support centres around Britain. The far right have published a list of targets for Wednesday night. Protests are being called to defend them #RefugeesWelcome Watch this thread for local details 🧵
