Come work with us - PostDoc @Vogelwarte_scie - on characterizing insect migration 🦋🪲🪰 using vertical-looking radars 📡 Deadline: 31 January Please RT! my.jobalino.ch/job/en/6cd5025…

Please share. We are #hiring #PhD students to work on #citizen #science, #insect #migration, or #insect #conservation. If interested, please email me. You can find more about our research interests and contact information here. shawanchowdhury.com.

Excited to share kenyabirdtrends.co.ke & associated paper doi.org/10.1111/ddi.13…! We used @KenyaBirdMap & @Team_eBird data to assess the change in distribution range of 1 088 bird species. We found a range reduction among scavengers & migrants, while introduced birds expanded.

📢 New paper alert! Dive into the fascinating migration of the Woodland Kingfisher within Africa! 🌍✨ 📄doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2… Big congratulations to Yann Rime and @taymida on this outstanding work! 👏!

NEW TOOL in #ornithology to find the nests of #birds tracked live with #telemetry - just enter #Movebank credentials and navigate to likely nest location: buff.ly/3WlN36M

Come do some exciting migratory insect and bird research with us! - Two more weeks until application deadline. #entomology #radar #ornithology #phenology #ecology @Vogelwarte_scie

Migratory 🦇 are highly influenced by barrier effects, sex-biased timing of migration and the adaptive use of winds. Understanding their migration helps guide conservation, including offshore wind farm planning. 🦇🌊 #MovementEcology 📰🔎 …ementecologyjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

📣 Please RT! I'm (co)advertising 4(!) PhD projects on topics including species interactions, AI, global mapping and tropical ecology! PhD 1: bit.ly/TREES-Mapping-… PhD 2: bit.ly/TREES-CV-4-IXNS PhD 3: bit.ly/TREES-Megadive… PhD 4: bit.ly/4i35cj5 Happy 2 answer Qs

NEW JOB in #ornithology to track nutcrackers through alpine forests in #Switzerland: buff.ly/4f54bUU

🚨PhD ALERT! 🚨 We are looking for a highly motivated student to use 🧬 genomic approaches 🧬 to unravel the mysteries of migration using yellow-browed warblers. Think this is you or someone you know? Then come to our Q&A session at on 02/12 and check out the ad below!

@shawan_c @MonashUni Awesome @shawan_c! Congratulations!!

A dream comes true! In Feb'25, I will join @MonashUni as a group leader on Global Change Biology. Our lab's primary focus will be understanding how animals respond to glob change using heterogeneous data and developing an efficient conservation plan to mitigate the impact. (1/3)

Ik deel hier vaker radarbeelden van vogeltrek, maar die van gisteravond van radar Den Helder (KNMI) zijn toch wel heel bijzonder: vogels wachten op de Waddeneilanden en in Noord-NL de schemering af, om dan massaal over steken naar Engeland, waar ze overwinteren of verder trekken!

So happy to see this pre-print out. We offer a detailed description of the magnitude, composition and timing of spring raptor migration at @BatumiRaptors, and how this compares to the infamous autumn passage, based on pioneering counts led by the talented @Tohar_Tal. #ornithology

NEW PAPER in #ornithology provides a tool to identify nesting and success from #telemetry data using #raptors as an example Paper: buff.ly/4h9mpGL R-package: buff.ly/3UclmMs App to find nests in the field: buff.ly/3Y2db6E

@Vogelwarte_scie @HiRAD_Europe

Cool birds, cool stats, and the coolest supervisors, what are you waiting for to apply to this PhD position!

Full of luck and very grateful to @FundacionMigres for allowing us to study insect migration here as part of @Birgen_Haest and @Vogelwarte_scie MoveInEurope project. The radar we use is in the courtyard & the malaise trap is in the lower middle of the photo. A beautiful place!

This is a beautiful moorish gecko here in southern Spain. Geckos have tendons that allow their toes to be incredibly flexible. Here I am very gently pushing on their feet to show this flexibility. Gorgeous animal. @MilesBinnie

🚨🚨PhD position with awesome people on an awesome study system 🚨🚨

The Czech Turtle Doves tagged this year show two main migratory directions: one via Italy and one via the Balkans. Now they are in Africa where there is no LTE-M network. We hope to hear from them again when they are back in spring! 🕊️ | #HABITRACK #ornithology #birdmigration
