Statistician/mathematical modeller at @BioSScotland interested in most things ecology and epidemiology related. Also post about outdoors stuff/running...
Hi there twitter! I'm Dave - a statistician/mathematical modeller at @BioSScotland
working on a range of projects in animal health, ecology and epidemiology.
I'll be posting mainly about science but also about other things I like (nature, running,...)
I'm pleased to announce that our paper on Aedes albopictus, dengue and phenotypic plasticity has been published in @NatureComms.
A quick thread on what's in the paper... 👇

ALT Visual abstract for the paper "Strong phylogenetic signals in global plant bioclimatic envelopes" by Claire Harris and co-authors. The key text reads: "Understanding the relationship between plants and their climate is fundamental both to prediction of their future ranges and to the implementation of effective conservation strategies. We combined global climate reconstructions with plant occurrences for all available terrestrial plant species and tested for phylogenetic niche conservatism in their climatic traits. We found extremely strong phylogenetic signals for climate variables and produced a dataset of plant climatic tolerances for >200,000 species."
