- Reposted by Nate SandersNSF is open again! A few comments: *Please be patient. During a shutdown NSF employees cannot open computers or respond to emails. *Merit review will continue. However panels won’t resume until after Dec 8th. *POs remain excited and committed to advancing science and the scientific workforce.

- *** Academic BFD alert *** We just published a new global bird phylogeny. It synthesizes the work of thousands of researchers before us, and it will grow and improve over time. @snacktavish.bsky.social @birdsoftheworld.bsky.social www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Habitat fragmentation does not compensate for the loss of local (alpha) diversity by increasing the diversity among fragments (beta diversity). www.nature.com/articles/s41...

- Reposted by Nate SandersMind-blowing paper! Way back a couple years ago I used B-diversity to test cross-scale river resilience. I think such cross-scale indexing can capture much better landscape resilience, connectivity and organic processes such as emergence and migration.
