New 🐧 preprint and great teamwork with @zuluagajd.bsky.social (supported by @jexpbiol.bsky.social travel grant) & A. Lewden

Moulting king penguins exhibit hyperthermia (+1.4°C!) and increased peripheral heat loss; yet it seems controlled rather than a sign of heat stress!

To be, or not to be, part-time in academia?
This is a tricky question that has faced many of us and in @elife.bsky.social we discuss the benefits and challenges of being part-time. With @emiliapsantos.bsky.social and a fantastic, interdisciplinary team!

📌 I really enjoyed @pablosalmon.bsky.social’s talk at #EOU2025! 🐦
Exploring how #mitochondria may shape avian #migration — lessons from Eurasian #blackbirds with different strategies.
Great insights into the energetic basis of life-history strategies!

I usually tell people that *so far*, habitat loss, not climate change, has been the major driver of bird population declines... but now we're starting to get analyses directly connecting bird declines to extreme weather events fueled by climate change. 🪶 theconversation.com/70-years-of-...
70 years of data show extreme heat is already wiping out tropical bird populations
A study using more than 90,000 scientific observations shows Earth is getting too hot for many tropical birds.

New paper:
contrasting Adélie penguin foraging behaviour during years of high and low krill availability

authors.elsevier.com/a/1lTzlmjMA3...

@cebc-chizelab.bsky.social @cnrsecologie.bsky.social @univ-larochelle.fr @cnrsaquitaine.bsky.social
Comparative drawing of penguins diving under high or low krill availability. Under high krill availability we can see that the penguins dive less deep, for shorter bouts, and with less distance and duration between bouts. The prey capture within bouts remains constant under high and low krill availability though.
