Our latest study in @GlobalChangeBio shows that predators can buffer aquatic communities against heatwaves, highlighting their importance in the fight against climate change. @donohueian @molinos_jorge @tcddublin @HokkaidoUni @IrishResearch @InsideNatGeo (📸🧵 1/14):

In 2019, I lived in the beautiful @HokkaidoUni Tomakomai experimental forest, working in Horonai stream. Horonai is well-studied thanks to years of work by the late Prof. Shigeru Nakano & others, so we know a lot about the ecology of the stream and its inhabitants. (2/14)

1/5 Hi #TropiCon20 My work uses acoustic monitoring to understand the dynamics of nature. Recording the sounds produced in ecosystems (soundscapes) can reveal important information about animals and their habitats. This is a @TCDZoology & @EconomoLab collaboration, part of my PhD 2 #TropiCon20 The @OkeonChuramori Project monitors ecosystems in near real-time across the subtropical island of Okinawa. Led by Nick Friedman, we use @WildlifeAcoust SM4 recorders to study soundscape change along Okinawa's strong urban-rural gradient. And we have a LOT of data.
