Important new study shows that current climate models underestimate the human-caused slowing of the #AMOC (Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation), because they neglect freshwater influx from Greenland melt and other sources. /1 nature.com/articles/s41561-0…

Latest NASA global temperature data. Earth has never been hotter since Homo sapiens discovered agriculture in the early Holocene. Likely even since 120,000 years ago. Fossil coal, oil and gas emissions caused it. We need to stop making it worse. Yes, we can if we want to. 🧵

The informal poll results are in, & as I feared, most people are running ANOVAs in #R with functions that can give highly misleading (or flat out wrong) results. Follow along to see why using anova() and aov() is usually inadvisable & why you should be using car::Anova() 🧵

44 scientists have issued a stark warning about the threat of a major ocean circulation change, causing a detrimental disruption of climate patterns lasting for centuries to come. Check out this short video explaining what this is all about.

At #EEA2024 Martina Spiga showed us how passive #eDNA filtration in longline fishing gears can help us to catch "biodiversity bonus" otherwise invisible... and that's really cool! #metabarcoding #genetics #elasmo #sharkscience @stefanako71 @TheMarianiLab

Out in @iScience_CP ! Does hybridisation with an invasive lizard threaten Europe’s most endangered lizard? 🦎 We genotyped lots of hybrid-lookin' lizards from the tiny peninsular of Capo Grosso (Vulcano Island) to find out 🧬cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S…

Snails 🐚 are slow, but they can evolve fast! Our new paper shows how one ecotype evolved into another on a tiny island 🏝️ within 30 years - and that we could predict changes at the phenotypic, but also at the genetic 🧬 level. 1/3 #Evolution #Genomics science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…
