A question: Are "Community Science" and "Citizen Science" interchangeable? What country are you from? I'm hungry for a global perspective. I've heard arguments that 'Community Science" is more inclusive, but only among US colleagues. #ornithology @eBird @iNaturalist

New study: the Atlantic overturning circulation AMOC “is on tipping course”. The paper by Dutch colleagues adds more weight to recent warnings, such as the OECD Climate Tipping Points report of 2022 and the Global Tipping Points report published 2023. realclimate.org/index.php/ar…

I gather some misunderstand this paper as an unrealistic model scenario for the future. That’s wrong. This type of experiment is not a future projection at all, but rather done to trace the equilibrium stability curve, from which an early warning indicator was then developed. The conclusion that the AMOC is „on course to tipping“ is based on applying that indicator to *reanalysis data* (observations-based products), as shown in Fig. 6 of the paper. In other words it’s observational data from the South Atlantic which suggest the AMOC is on tipping course.

This is actually insulting to our intelligence, to ecological understanding, to conservation biology, but most of all, to Gouldian finches, black-footed tree rats, and other wildlife that call this precious, high-quality habitat home.
We need to protect our precious threatened species, there’s no doubt about that. That’s why, when rare Gouldian Finches were spotted, I changed the original approval conditions for the Lee Point project in Darwin to better protect nature.

Hey team #stats #Rstats, I'd really appreciate some advice with a mixed model's random effects structure! Scenario: I have a factor w. temperature (cool vs warm) and a factor with oxygen (low vs high). So exp. treatments were cool-low, cool-high, warm-low and warm-high. (1/n)
