Thoughts on developing a social network for ecological restoration

I’m just posting some thoughts I’ve been mulling over. I’d love to work on developing something that looks like what I will describe. But at the moment just felt the mood to write it out, and so figured this would be a good place to post this. If any of it speaks to you, give me a response or connect with me, I’d love to discuss it.

A social network to enhance global ecological restoration. I think this is very possible, and would add some real power to all the disparate efforts at restoration and rewilding that exist out there.

There are some cool recent tools that have been developed and I feel like these could be integrated together to create a platform that is good at connecting ecologically minded people, helping them learn, and helping them have an impact on whatever systems are near and dear to them.

Here’s a rough sketch of what such a system could look like:

1 Starts with your bioregion. This is a great site which has done some incredible work in this basic bioregion information map. I spent a long time just exploring and reading about each bioregion on here, and I have to say, it’s very accurate to what I know in the places I have lived and worked. Launch the navigator, click your bioregion and read a bit, see if you think so too.

2 Each bioregion is embedded with guides (common species, endangered species, drivers of degradation). The idea is to get people to collaboratively add more good info (similar to a wiki maybe?). This would serve as a great stating point for anyone who’s just starting to learn about their local ecology, I really wish I had such a resource in the past.

Any ecological/environmental consultants from Qld/NSW here? Looking to network and share ideas

Hey all.

I've been working as an ecological consultant for about 2 years now in south-east Qld. I have done work in NSW but not a lot. I'm currently consulting for a State and Federally significant infrastructure project and spear-heading the koala assessment and management. I'm also working on becoming an SQP botanists (grasses are probably what I know best haha).

So I'm looking for other consultants to discuss ideas and projects etc.

Open ecology article of the week: Geographical variation of multiplex ecological networks in marine intertidal communities

Hi everyone, hope you are doing well. I have a new open ecology article, and this is another from none other than Ecology.

You can find the open access link here: https://esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/ecy.3165

Please feel free to discuss this article in the comments below if you like. Questions, comments, or anything remotely relevant is fair game!



Abstract: Understanding the drivers of geographical variation of species distributions, and of the resulting community structure, constitutes one of the grandest challenges in ecology. Geographical patterns of species richness and composition have been relatively well studied. Less is known about how the entire set of trophic and non‐trophic ecological interactions, and the complex networks that they create by gluing species together in complex communities, change across geographical extents. Here, we compiled data of species composition and three types of ecological interactions occurring between species in rocky intertidal communities across a large spatial extent (~ 970km of shoreline) of central Chile, and analysed the geographical variability in these multiplex networks (i.e. comprising several interaction types) of ecological interactions. We calculated 9 network summary statistics common across interaction types, and additional network attributes specific to each of the different types of interactions. We then investigated potential environmental drivers of this multivariate network organisation. These included variation in sea surface temperature and coastal upwelling, the main drivers of productivity in nearshore waters. Our results suggest that structural properties of multiplex ecological networks are affected by local species richness and modulated by factors influencing productivity and environmental predictability. Our results show that non‐trophic negative interactions are more sensitive to spatially structured temporal environmental variation than feeding relationships, with non‐trophic positive interactions being the least labile to it. We also show that environmental effects are partly mediated through changes in species richness and partly through direct influences on species interactions, probably associated to changes in environmental predictability and to bottom‐up nutrient availability. Our findings highlight the need for a comprehensive picture of ecological interactions and their geographical variability if we are to predict potential effects of envi

Using co‐occurrence network topology in assessing ecological stress in benthic macroinvertebrate communities

i'd like to share what will be chapter 2 of my thesis: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ece3.5751 .

The tldr; is that a significant portion of the change in biotic integrity of invertebrate communities in streams can be described just from changes in their pattern of co-occurrence, independent of the particular identity of any of the species.

Thoughts on developing a social network for ecological restoration

I’m just posting some thoughts I’ve been mulling over. I’d love to work on developing something that looks like what I will describe. But at the moment just felt the mood to write it out, and so figured this would be a good place to post this. If any of it speaks to you, give me a response or connect with me, I’d love to discuss it.

A social network to enhance global ecological restoration. I think this is very possible, and would add some real power to all the disparate efforts at restoration and rewilding that exist out there.

There are some cool recent tools that have been developed and I feel like these could be integrated together to create a platform that is good at connecting ecologically minded people, helping them learn, and helping them have an impact on whatever systems are near and dear to them.

Here’s a rough sketch of what such a system could look like:

1 Starts with your bioregion. This is a great site which has done some incredible work in this basic bioregion information map. I spent a long time just exploring and reading about each bioregion on here, and I have to say, it’s very accurate to what I know in the places I have lived and worked. Launch the navigator, click your bioregion and read a bit, see if you think so too.

2 Each bioregion is embedded with guides (common species, endangered species, drivers of degradation). The idea is to get people to collaboratively add more good info (similar to a wiki maybe?). This would serve as a great stating point for anyone who’s just starting to learn about their local ecology, I really wish I had such a resource in the past.

3 Spatial layers which describe individual restoration projects. A good example of this is restor. Actually restor is a great system. It was designed with exactly the intention of my title, to create a social network for ecological restoration. And they’re doing good work. But I don’t believe that it just yet has everything required to make it become a phenomenon, to go more viral, or to provide on-ramp for people who aren’t already involved in restoration. Which would be the ideal of the system I’m describing. Functionality-wise, it’s great for describing ecological restoration projects and documenting them objectively.

An issue here is that we’d want to put on as many environmental projects as possible onto this kind of system. (Hopefully without compromising ease of use/explo
