📡 Studying animal movement is key for understanding ecological processes and global change impacts. A new R package from @HiRAD_Europe (#BiodivMon) facilitates import, analysis, and visualisation of movement data, integrating with Movebank & other sources. #AnimalTracking 👇

Need to analyze animal tracking data in R? Just out, our (@AnneKScharf & @safilabmpi ) paper in @MethodsEcolEvol describing the R package move2 (bartk.gitlab.io/move2/) for analyzing movement data, including reading data directly from @MovebankTeam. doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.14…

📢Nieuw rapport & open dataset: Vogeltrek in kaart gebracht met weer- & vogelradars📡🐦‍⬛🐦 In opdracht van @AmsterdamNL, @GemDiemen en @ProvincieNH hebben we @IBED_UvA @UvA_Amsterdam vogeltrek in Noord-Holland onderzocht, om te kunnen helpen bij vraagstukken rondom windenergie.

Fantastic animation by @mrtnrey of @KNMI weather radar data showing aerial insects en mass in the Netherlands last week. Very high passage of insects also visible over #Amsterdam in our birdscan radar @ ARTIS-park. #ARISE @HiRAD_Europe @BiodiversaPlus @IBED_UvA @NWONieuws

Kijk eens aan! Wekenlang niets dan regen op de radar, maar op dagen als deze zien we iets heel anders: insecten! Met dit weer zijn er overdag zoveel dat ze een signaal geven op de beelden. Hier ongefilterde beelden van radar Herwijnen (KNMI) vanaf 6u vanochtend 26/06. #InsectWeek

Flip the #radar switch & there they are: thousands of insects (each ❌ is at least 1) cruising through the air in Ceuta on the African side of the Srait of Gibraltar! @Vogelwarte_scie @HiRAD_Europe @obimasa @WillLeoHawkes

Yesterday @Birgen_Haest, Alejandro Onrubia, José Luis Ruiz and I placed an insect monitoring radar in Ceuta on the African side of the Straits of Gibraltar! This will help us reveal whether insects are migrating between the continents! Muchas gracias to @obimasa, @ieceuties and the local tortoises for their help. This will join the @HiRAD_Europe network of radars monitoring aerial life.

What an increadible bird migration night!! On one of our bird radars in SE-Netherlands you'll see them moving SW. Computer hardly can't track all of the birds, #birdmigration, @trektellen, @vogeltrekinfo

Today's a exciting day, we moved @IBED_UvA's Swiss BirdScan radar to @ARTIS to measure bird & insect #migration and aerial biomass over #Amsterdam 24/7. Part of the NIEBA ARISE project and just in time for spring #migration. #radar #aeroecology @NWONieuws @globam_net
