Competitive interactions modify the direct effects of climate
Ecography, EarlyView.As the climate is changing, species respond by changing their distributions and abundances. The effects of climate are not only direct, but also occur via changes in biotic interactions, such as competition. Yet, the role of competition in mediating the effects of climate is still largely unclear.

The quality of GBIF's taxonomic classification
, 2013 In some recent posts I've been exploring the quality of GBIF's taxonomic data. I've done some further analyses and decided to write this up in something more than a blog post. I'm writing a draft which you can see on GitHub. It tackles just one issue, namely what happens when you combine taxonomic names from multiple sources and don't know that some of

Ecography, EarlyView.Climate change is causing many species' ranges to shift upslope to higher elevations as species track their climatic requirements. However, many species have not shifted in pace with recent warming (i.e. ‘range stasis'), possibly due to demographic lags or microclimatic buffering.

Clogmia albipunctata Larvae Influence the Odour Dynamics of Rotting Organic Matter
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Drain flies live in organic waste. We investigated how drain fly larvae influence the unpleasant smells produced by sewage sludge and rotting nettle. Although the perception of these smells did not change significantly according to the public, chemical analyses showed that sewage sludge with drain fly larvae yielded a different composition of odors ...

Annotating GBIF: some thoughts
, 2014 Given that it's the start of a new year, and I have a short window before teaching kicks off in earnest (and I have to revise my phyloinformatics course) I'm playing with a few GBIF-related ideas. One topic which comes up a lot is annotating and correcting errors. There has been some work in this area [1][2] bit it strikes me as somewhat complicated.

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.True dung beetles are a speciose group of ecosystem engineers that play key roles as detritivores in natural and agricultural landscapes. Scarabaeine beetles show strong thermal plasticity and there is increasing evidence of rapid evolutionary divergence in response to temperature across ecological and evolutionary timescales, with likely consequences ...

EPPO Bulletin, EarlyView.Abstract The oak processionary moth (Thaumetopoea processionea) has recently established a significant presence in Odense, Denmark, a city characterized by its substantial population of oak trees. This study provides details on the current situation (as of April 2025), examines potential introduction pathways, and outlines the challenges associated ...

Ibis, EarlyView.The Pinnated Bittern Botaurus pinnatus (Ardeidae) is a widely distributed Neotropical wading bird whose distribution and seasonal status remain poorly resolved. Discrepancies among published literature, citizen science records and the range currently assumed by BirdLife International indicate that both its geographical distribution and migratory ...
