New paper alert, led by Jose Lanuza!
#plantpollinator #traits #CommunityEcology #macroecology

RT @barragan_lanuza It took very long and a lot of effort but finally is out! "Covariation among reproductive traits in flowering plants shapes their interactions with pollinators" https://doi.org/10.1111/1365-2435.14340

, what a team!

The global relationship between potential treeline elevation and temperature is well studied and understood. In our study, conducted together with @severin_irl and @BayreuthBiogeo@twitter.com (https://nitter.net/BayreuthBiogeo), we investigated the additional effects of mass elevation, continentality and isolation on a global scale. Find out more in the open publication: https://doi.org/10.1111/geb.13689

Title is "More than what they eat: uncoupled biophysical constraints underlie geographic patterns of herbivory" with coauthors Jason Fridley and Vigdis Vandvik.

Also, favorite part of this article was the Cate le Bon quote I got away with including.

Big challenge in #macroecology, highlighted by @sMarten_Winter: taxonomic harmonization of multi-species datasets that you want to jointly analyze. Check out their paper led by @LeNematode in @MethodsEcolEvol on tools, databases and best practices: https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/2041-210X.13802

Food for thought - and action! - in #macroecology, #academia and elsewhere. @sMarten_Winter

New paper led by Jonathan Chu. We found that dispersal distances among North American birds depend on species’ flight efficiency and are negatively correlated with population sizes. This has interesting implications in macroecology, evolution, and conservation.
Way to go Jonathan!!!!

No! Modern #macroecology [in one sentence] is NOT:

"We match "global" distribution & trait data & analyse it w our fancy methods given our very smart questions."

➡️almost no data is globally well distributed
➡️ huge trait data gaps beyond vertebrates
