I’m excited to share a new paper with @shannoncurley.bsky.social in Ecography! Winter & breeding bird communities in the NE USA have become more functionally & phylogenetically similar to one another over time. Check out which functions have changed!

Functional and phylogenetic convergence of winter and breeding bird communities in the northeastern US
Around the world, ecological communities are becoming more similar to one another in a process known as biotic homogenization – an increase in similarity among communities over time. While biotic hom...

New paper out led by the awesome @peterw-ecol.bsky.social ! Check out how winter and breeding bird communities in the northeastern US are becoming phylogenetically and functionally more similar to each other over time (and in such an interesting way!)

Hey #StatsSky, what are you favorite papers to cite when you need to justify something that is obvious (I once had a reviewer ask we justify the use of logistic regression on a binary outcome)
or when you need to push-back on silly reviewer requests (e.g., asking for p-values in table 1)?
