📢Hear ye! Hear ye! New paper alert!📢 "It takes a village to raise a science communicator." I use the metaphor of a medieval village to describe the resources, personnel, and institutions required to succeed in #outreach and #scicomm. Check it out here ➡️ bit.ly/villagesci

@WenjunHeInfo @Stanford @NSF Thank you! I'm an ecologist! I study coupled human and natural systems. Basically, human relationships with biodiversity, species distributions, and how human-nature relationships extend into ecological theory. 😊

@ashrafmiu584 @Stanford @NSF Thank you!! I am an ecologist and I focus on human relationships with nature (called coupled human and natural systems). I bridge gaps between theory, quantitative methods, and applications to advance ecology, conservation, and sustainability. 😊

🥳My 1st PhD chapter is out in @NatureEcoEvo!! "Gaps and opportunities in modelling human influence on species distributions in the Anthropocene." I did a massive systematic review of >12k #sdm articles & found only 11% use human predictors in SDMs.😮 bit.ly/humsdm 🧵1/

What's also interesting is that there were mismatches between study and human predictor time frames--especially in future forecasts. Nearly half the articles projecting to future climates held human predictors constant over time.🧐But why?🤔Find out here!➡️bit.ly/humsdm

1,429 articles used human predictors in SDM training. Collectively, they modeled the distributions of >58k species using 2,307‼️ unique human predictors. This means that compared to environmental predictors, there is no 'rule of thumb' for human predictor selection in SDMs. 🫣 2/
