#speciesonthemove
If the seed dispensing animal species blink out, plant species dependent on these dispersers are gonna have a hell of a time shifting their range under climate change.

Iceland, one of the last places on Earth to be mosquito-free, recorded its first sighting this month.

Scientists say warming is making the country more hospitable to the insects.

what is it REALLY like to be a #speciesonthemove? @mwtingley.bsky.social, @mhcneateclegg.bsky.social, Luke Evans, Brett Scheffers, an incredible team of co-authors, and I took a deep dive into this question.

we argue that thermal gradients are all around us—in space and time...

I really Iove this new paper & I'll be coming back to it often. Takes us a step forward in understanding avian responses to climate change AND bird distributions in the past - including in relation to human settlements.

The scale and speed of climate change impacts at the world's global warming frontlines is shocking. 🧪🌎 #Speciesonthemove

understanding extreme events and #speciesonthemove is rarely possible with modern-day datasets. instead, we screened hundreds of papers and read agency reports (like these books from the UCSC library) to bring old observations of range extensions to light. some species shifted 1000s of km in a year!

as the #speciesonthemove conference starts in Taiwan, I'm excited that a lot of our work on process-based Bayesian models for range forecasting is coming online.

I just updated this proof-of-concept preprint for these models (fitted to summer flounder): doi.org/10.32942/X24...
Dynamic range models improve the near-term forecast for a marine species on the move

five days left to submit an abstract for #speciesonthemove in Taiwan in April!

SOTM is my favorite conference—a small, ECR-friendly meeting that gathers international scientists working on every aspect of climate change + range and phenological shifts.

Had a great time attending my third #SpeciesOnTheMove conference last month in Taiwan!

Thanks to the @sotm2026.bsky.social organizing team for a great program and to attendees for inspiring presentations and stimulating conversations.

New data and inferences on species range shifts coming soon!

mechanistic / process-based models are key to forecasting global change biology but there are few spatial options for range shifts. near-term forecasting is a huge methods gap for #speciesonthemove -- SDMs usually project over decades but managers need information on shorter time horizons.

Climate-driven range shifts are so interesting, but range shifts can also be driven by changes in land use, human translocation, etc. #mammals #SpeciesOnTheMove
