Such an important finding for invasive species management.
Ross Cuthbert@ross_cuthbert14 Jan 2025
Just out in Biological Reviews: Non-native species have higher consumption rates than their native counterparts Through a global meta-analysis, we show that non-native consumers are often characterised by more efficient use of resources 👾 🍱 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Non‐native species have higher consumption rates than their native counterparts

Non-native species can be major drivers of ecosystem alteration, especially through changes in trophic interactions. Successful non-native species have been predicted to have greater resource use...

Read our latest paper @PNASNews! doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2318296… The first #DeepLearning project in our lab led by Lauren Gillespie @leg2015 who directly uses remote sensing images to map 2000 plant species We named it #deepbiosphere! @UCBerkeley @HHMINEWS @Stanford @CarnegieScience

There are few options in #rstats to tackle multivariate time series. {mvgam} now fits State-Space models with a range of observation distributions and process dynamics, including vector autoregressions. Nonlinear splines can be included in BOTH components nicholasjclark.github.io/mvg…

This invasive pest is promiscuous at its core. Multiple paternity increases from edge to core of the spotted lanternfly invasive range. New surprising finding from an awesome former postdoc @NBelouard published by @EntsocAmerica doi.org/10.1093/ee/nvad083 #ecology #entomology

Here's a thread in pictures about the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC which is making headlines this week. I've studied this topic since 1991 and will show key data and models & some video. Let's go: observed temperature trend since 1901 from nature.com/articles/nclimate… 🧵1/x

What ticks you off? 🕷️🐀🌿🏥 For me, it's the complex ecological links among ticks, Lyme disease, mammals, and invasive plants. Sign up for the webinar on cutting-edge research @TempleUniv funded by @PAAgriculture us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi… #ecology #InvasiveAlienSpecies #lyme

Big data on invasive species spread are rare. @SebaDeBona (awesome postdoc) developed a framework to make such data open access. This #Rstats package has >600,000 spotted lanternfly occurrences. Use it for research and teaching. neobiota.pensoft.net/article… #ecology #winelover #pest

What's a teleconnection? Strong links between phenomena at distant locations. It's when forest fires >500 miles away in Canada impact #Philadelphia. Views are my office window @TempleUniv today versus a couple months ago. CODE PURPLE and CODE MARRON >300 ppm air quality 😷👿
