New in @natrevbiodiv.nature.com: our review of the influence of #seabirds, via their nutrient transfer, on islands & adjacent marine ecosystems 🐦🏝️🪸
We highlight knowledge gaps & future directions ✨
"The circular seabird economy is critical for oceans, islands and people": doi.org/10.1038/s443...
NEW PAPER in #ornithology shows that some #seabirds are doing very well on tropical #islands - especially when you can count them all with a #drone: buff.ly/4ngJ3ze
New paper! 🧪
We found substantial morphological variation in Seychelles bronze geckos among islands, likely outweighing regional biogeographic patterns observed in other herpetofauna.
Great collaboration with @lib-morpholab.bsky.social @nhm-london.bsky.social #islands #geckos 🦎🏝️🇸🇨
