Looking for a PhD? Interested in bird migration? Come and join my new lab @DurBiol! I’m currently advertising for two PhD students - see below. If you're interested, please get in touch (preferably before the 15ht December). #PhDposition #PhD #Birds #Migration @CEGDurham

Our new paper is now out in @consbiog, where we present a new modelling framework - Spatially explicit Adaptive Migration Models (SAMMs). We show how this approach can simulate the optimal behavioural decisions to migrate across open land- and seascapes onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Anyone interested in the actual facts VS claims the new oil and gas licences will bring UK energy prices down? This is quite the humdinger. Well done @Channel4News

Does the UK need more North Sea oil and gas extraction?
@C4Ciaran digs deeper into Rishi Sunak’s decision to grant new North Sea oil and gas licences.

Our paper is out now in @NatureComms. We explore how well changes in climate explain the observed range shifts of European breeding birds

🆕8 more Favourable Conservation Status definitions have just been published. Based on ecological evidence & describing what 'good' looks like for England, these definitions bring us closer to our nature recovery goals.

It's 2023, folks, and a Tory MP is asking the UK's climate minister "what scientific evidence his depatment [sic] has which demonstrates the need to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere"
UK climate minister directs his colleague to the latest IPCC report

This is heinous. The BBC is censoring not only itself, but David Attenborough, by pulling an episode of its new flagship series on British wildlife as it focuses on UK wildlife declines... in case it upsets right-wing politicans and media. #WildIsles

A paradigm shift in needed NOW in wx radar data policy in Europe to use these sensors to also quantify aerial biodiversity such as bird migration. @globam_net @IBED_UvA @EuropaBon_H2020 @BiodivERsA3 @WMO

Watch bird migration in real time with CROW, a new interactive tool we just launched! 📡🐦 oscibio.inbo.be/blog/crow/ #opensource

Using indices of species’ potential range to inform #conservation status.
Species with wider potential ranges may warrant higher conservation prioritisation.
Congratulations to @_the_mason et al.

A global analysis controlling for latitudinal and evolutionary patterns, finds that migratory birds and mammals have faster paces of life than their non-migratory relatives.
