Challenge for ecologists: can we draw BACI as a DAG?

This might be a good one… A is the impact, Y_0 is before, Y_1 after. U_2 shows an additivity violation. But there seems to be missing arrows for me!

Just out in issue!
Wondering which moth trap to pick?
Or if different bulbs collect different species?
We look at these questions and more using 100,000 trap nights from the amazing @gardenmothscheme.bsky.social.
With @katatrepsis.bsky.social and Bill Kunin

We analyse 10 years of records Garden Moth Scheme (GMS) to estimate the effect of bulb and trap type on the number of moths caught by moth traps. We find that brighter, higher wattage bulbs collect ...
Just interpret it as a probability interval (link.springer.com/article/10.1...)
A study I led came out in Nature Cities yesterday!
We used radar to study the role that urban landscapes play in migratory bird stopover. Spoiler: birds use cities a lot, and the patterns of their use reflect social processes and the inequities embedded in them.

“This is an incredibly ambitious transition away from area-based payment into a system where all payments are dependent on public goods, and there will be difficulties along the way”.

Excited to share our new paper in @natcomms.nature.com We synthesize causal discovery & inference approaches across traditions (regression adjustment, quasi-expts, SEMs, Granger causality, convergent cross-mapping, and more) into a unified workflow for ecologists. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Eye-opening findings on how light suppresses moth activity. Light attracts moths, but what if we've been missing a much more pervasive effect where even sky-glow light levels make them freeze?

Frequentist inference typically is described in terms of hypothetical repeated sampling but there are advantages to an interpretation that uses a single random sample. Contemporary examples are given ...
Urban ecology traditionally focuses on single cities, yet cities play key roles in ecological processes such as migration. Radar analysis across the continental USA reveals that nearly half of stopove...
