Joint Science-i / GFBI data survey 2022

We are now inviting data contributors to participate in 10+ ongoing research projects in Science-i (https://science-i.org/groups/). For these and upcoming research projects, it is critical to know who has what dataset(s), because dataset is a major asset and leverage for one to participate in Science-i/GFBI studies.   It has been over five years since we […]

[Published] Co-limitation toward lower latitudes shapes global forest diversity gradients

Co-limitation towards lower latitudes shapes global forest diversity gradients The latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) is one of the most recognized global patterns of species richness exhibited across a wide range of taxa. Numerous hypotheses have been proposed in the last two centuries to explain LDG, but rigorous tests of the drivers of LDGs have been […]

Science-i on Strava

We are glad to launch Science-i on Strava! Please join us in running, cycling, swimming, rock climbing, skiing, etc. Let’s challenge each other, help each other, and have fun! https://www.strava.com/clubs/science-i Our first challenge is to accumulate 5,000km in running distance and 10,000km in cycling. This challenge aims to increase the participation of underrepresented biodiversity scientists.

Science-i starts Client Survey 2022

Science-i service team members are starting to conduct #client_survey through brief 30-minute virtual and in-person interview sessions. The main goal for this interview is for us to get a better understanding of the #disconnection between communities, data users, and data providers, how this has or has not posed an obstacle to your #research_collaborations, and how […]
