Version 2 of the g21u web app is available. Run on a mobile to make records in the field. Run on a desktop to process the records and turn into CSVs. You can get the new version here: g21u.netlify.app Or read about it first here: github.com/burkmarr/g21u/…

@andymus1 It had to happen sooner or later! I'm thinking of doing a simpler v2 which runs as a pwa but unlikely to do anything on that until next year. But I'm sure you'll find something to do the job before then. Thanks for using it Andy - that's brought me a lot of satisfaction.

Sad day. Looks like new phone won't run the Gilbert21 app I've used for years. Does anyone know of an app (or even a separate device) that can act as a dictaphone but will also record the location of where that sound file was created? Surely there's something out there? @burkmarr

Here’s a quick roundup of highlights from research we published in 2023, on climate change, capitalism, colonialism, degrowth and post-capitalist futures. As always, free PDFs are available via the link at the end of the thread. 🧵

@graemelyons @rachbicker @sacrevert @SxBRC @___BRC___ 2/3 The 'effect' is an increase in mis-identifications (alongside the positive effect of more recording). I first heard of the 'Chinery effect' on the Preston Montford MSc. Can't swear that I've ever heard it used anywhere else.

@graemelyons @rachbicker @sacrevert @SxBRC @___BRC___ 1/3 The 'Chinery effect' can occur after the publication of ID guides (sometimes excellent and important ones like Chinery) that neither describe all taxa nor warn the reader when an illustrated taxon can be easily confused with another not illustrated.

1. I’m very grateful for the response to my appearance on Question Time, but also puzzled. I felt that in all cases I was simply stating the bleeding obvious. Is this now so rare in public life that it becomes an event when someone does it? The grim truth seems to be: yes. 🧵

An honour to be involved in #PlantAtlas2020 and a great opportunity to put ideas re #uncertainty communication into practice sciencedirect.com/science/articl… See plantatlas2020.org/atlas for examples!
