Writing
- still working on non-parametric bayes draft today..
Reviewing
- review sent to PRSB
Reading
- Came across this rather nice summary of big data in Ecology through some buzz in the twittersphereHampton et. al. (2013) .
- More fishery managment controversy with Halpern et. al. (2013) critiquing the ‘ocean food provision index’ from Nature last year, and a subset of that team replying Halpern et. al. (2013) . Seems to fall along the usual divisions of whether to use or ignore imperfect data; no doubt the truth lies somewhere in between.
- Looks like Cavanaugh et. al. (2013) have a nice synchrony paper in kelp forests which I’m looking forward to reading.
- Nonlinear forecasting strikes again in PNAS, Deyle et. al. (2013) Predicting climate effects on sardine with the usual suspects. May disentangle physical forcing from ecological dynamics.
- Halpern et. al. (2013b) discuss the classic problem of optimization in conservation: balancing social equity, economic return and conservation needs.
ROpenSci is mentioned in a letter to the editor published in Ecotoxicology, (Schäfer et. al. 2013 ).
