Our new pre-print is up on BioRxiv Ecology - goal was to better estimate how trait evolution impacts population dynamics & community composition. We (me, postdoc Ruben Hermann) used a Joint Species Distribution Models (HMSC) fit to simulated & empirical eco-evo data.

Spatial Insurance of Distinct Ecological Functions

Communities can act as functional sources and sustain rare ecological roles across space. We reveal patterns of functional vulnerability for plants and birds

Happy to be part of this one!!

Check out the review we wrote, led by John Thompson, on conserving mediterranean #plant #diversity in a changing world.
We are delighted to announce Thomas Reviews, a new format for impact at the intersection of plants, people and the planet.

The three inaugural Reviews have been published in Plants, People, Planet today!

New paper alert! We (well, Gabrielle Koerich) modelled distributions of 28 Antarctic moss species using Bayesian spatial models. Results? Moss diversity is shaped by proximity to seabird colonies and water availability, with clear differences between maritime and continental assemblages.

Are you involved in ecological forecasting in Europe?
We’re mapping forecasting applications across the continent — from SDMs to observatories with predictive potential.
Our goal: make EU forecasting more connected and identify both immediate and long-term forecasting potential.

Super excited that the bulk of my PhD work is now preprinted! Here we used whole-community competition, or coalescence, experiments to quantify selection acting on genetically diverged strains within larger communities. (1/n)

Excited to share our new dengue research with a great international team.

We introduce a framework that integrates different modelling disciplines to i) explain past spatiotemporal dynamics and drivers, and ii) forecast future trajectories, thereby providing diverse insights for decision-makers.

My first paper on invasive species and coypus 🥳 The beginning of a long story hopefully 😇
"Invasive rodents are hard to count, so I used hierarchical statistical models to estimate numbers directly from removal data. This provides a tool for on-the-ground management, with examples on coypus in France and muskrats in the Netherlands." - @oaggimenez.bsky.social
