Dr Steve Portugal, Animal Behaviour and Physiology

Congratulations and thank you to Prof. Craig White (Monash) for getting his paper accepted today in Functional Ecology, and for involving me in the work. It’s a very important piece of work, showing that geographic bias in existing data sets limits our capacity to predict organismal responses in the vast areas of the planet that are unstudied, and that this geographic bias is a much greater source of uncertainty than the difference between the current climate and the projected future climate.
