Did you know that the snow bunting is the only songbird on Svalbard? It is actually the northernmost breeding passerine species. Check out the linktree in our bio for more information. @NTNU @NINAnature @UNISvalbard #svalbard #snowbunting #birds #conservation

What if conservation wasn't about saving selected rare species? What if conservation was about creating complex, resilient ecosystems?

Why haven't we resolved the Tree of Life? In a NEW publication out in @NatureRevGenet, we discuss #biological and analytical factors contributing to #incongruence in the #phylogenomic era and synthesize current best practices for addressing them. 🔗: nature.com/articles/s41576-0…

Follow the monitoring of snow buntings in Adventdalen, Svalbard, a project studying Arctic adaptations, ecological interactions, climate change, pollution, migration and more since 1998. @NINAnature @NTNU @UNISvalbard 📸 Stuart Thomson, stuartthomson.no/ – at Svalbard, Norge

DNA-derived data needs to be discoverable through biodiversity data platforms. This guide will teach you the principles and approaches of exposing “sequences with dates and coordinates” in the context of broader biodiversity data. docs.gbif.org/publishing-dna… @FFossoy @GBIF

Now out in Nature Ecology & Evolution: The same 20 insect families make up over 50% of species and specimens in Malaise samples; regardless of continent, climate, or habitat. Yet, most are neglected dark taxa. Time for change! doi.org/10.1038/s41559-023-0…

The power of eDNA to help monitor rare and elusive species gets stronger all the time. Super interesting new paper from my colleague Elena Valsecchi on monitoring monk seal presence across their range in the western and central Mediterranean doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-2…
