Discover Latest #Ecology News, Articles and Videos with Contenting
Ecology is the study of the relationship between living things and their environment, including other organisms and their physical environment. Ecology covers a wide range of topics, including global warming, pollution, conservation, and the interplay between humans and the environment. News and articles about ecology can provide valuable information on these topics, and help people understand the importance of taking care of the environment. Here are some of the latest ecology news, articles and videos. 1. "The Climate Crisis Is Everywhere - What You Can Do" - This article from National Geographic explains the dangers of climate change, and what individuals can do to help reduce emissions and prevent further environmental damage. The article offers information on how to reduce energy use in the home, how to reduce plastic waste and how to support renewable energy sources. 2. "The Plastic Problem: What You Need to Know" - This article from The Guardian outlines the global plastic problem, and provides information on how individuals can reduce their plastic waste. The article discusses different types of plastic, how it affects the environment, and what steps people can take to reduce their impact. 3. "Climate Change and the Ocean: How It's Affecting Marine Life" - This article from Scientific American explains how climate change is impacting
How climate and barriers shape global patterns in seed plant distribution over millions of years
Why do some plants thrive in specific regions but not in others? A study led by researchers at the University of Göttingen explores the factors shaping plant distributions and how these patterns have changed over millions of years. Analyzing nearly 270,000 seed plant species worldwide, the research highlights the roles of environmental conditions and dispersal barriers in influencing global plant diversity. The results were published in Nature Ecology & Evolution.

The question isn’t the quality of this Friday linkfest, it’s what depending on this Friday linkfest does to us (UPDATEDx2) | Dynamic Ecology
This week: crafts vs. LLMs, waiting your turn for the Nobel Prize, and more. The age at which Nobel Prize winners in physics, chemistry, and medicine did their prize-winning work hasn't budged over time, but the age at which winners are awarded the Prize has been climbing slowly but steadily. Does that tell us something…

Don’t hate the player, hate the game (faculty job ad edition) | Dynamic Ecology
Attention conservation notice: this post is addressed at an imagined audience that might well be pretty small, if not entirely non-existent. I dunno. As a blogger, sometimes you just write a post to get it out of your head, so you can think about other things. As a faculty job seeker, you will sometimes read…
