20 years after West-Eberhard’s "Developmental Plasticity and Evolution", despite a wealth of studies, “the role of development in explanations for adaptive evolution remains under-appreciated”
Great paper by Uller et al

Mirkwood was admittedly for the entomologists / arachnologists, but you know the herping had to be amazing in The Dead Marshes...
Sauron had a lot of problems, but he knew how to manage a wetland. The Dead Marshes were one of the environmental gems of Mordor, and an impressive nature-based solution to help remediate the environmental damage caused by the corpse issue after the Battle of Dagorlad

The wood wide web - the idea that trees communicate with each other through an underground fungal network – has enchanted the public.
But some ecologists think its scientific basis has been oversold go.nature.com/4aaCRCJ

I’m sorry. The previous email indicating we were getting your department an ‘endowed chair’ contained a small error. It should have read ‘upholstered chair.’ You can pick it up from surplus end of week. Remember an engineering profs trash is a linguistics prof’s treasure!

Very excited to share this work with S. Collins, Y. Guan, A. Krist as part of @ecostoich
published in @Ecology_Letters! We find that resource qauntity and quality (as stoich) differentially control stream invertebrate diversity across spatial scale.

new paper out by @RyanAMartin & @sarah_e_diamond! also with me and the great @salty_daSilva
We discuss when adaptation will keep pace with climate change, the factors that will constrain adaptation, and how we can improve evolutionary forecasts.
