New preprint out! Juan Pablo, Stephen, and Marta have published the first continental-scale characterization of change in multiple facets of wintering bird communities over the past 50 years. Their manuscript demonstrates strong functional reorganization of wintering avifauna likely driven by changing climatic conditions.
Read MoreNew grant alert! Marta is a co-PI on a newly awarded NSF project to lead a new global climate center on AI for biodiversity change. The AI and Biodiversity Change (ABC) Global Climate Center will bring together ecologists and computer scientists from six universities in the United States and Canada, with partners in UK, Europe, and Australia, to develop new AI-enabled, data-supported approaches to study how changes in climate are impacting life.
Read MoreNew grant alert! Marta and collaborators—Kaiguang Zhao and Benjamin Zuckerberg—have recently been awarded a new NSF grant to investigate the avian diversity-vegetation associations. The project will explore the relationships between avian diversity and 3D heterogeneity of vegetation structure across spatial scales from local to continental.
