I'm curious why so many place names in India have changed dramatically over time. Is this due to post-colonial name changes, or because of the many languages being translated over time into English? For example today Baliapatnam / Baliapatam / Beliapatam / Valapattanam
In a brilliant show of morale boosting, executive management is forcing us into the office more while telling us we must depersonalize our cubes. No pictures, knick knack's, or personal items. Only a predetermined list of state office equipment will be allowed in the cube.
I've seen a recent trend in titles of papers towards very general descriptions of a single species study, e.g. "In a marine top predator" or "in a capital breeder" instead of the name of the species involved. Seems like some working on those species might miss the papers?
I'm looking for recently-dispelled misconceptions about whale behavior. Something along the lines of how Aristotle though birds transformed into different species during the winter, or how in the middle ages people thought birds hibernated in frozen lakes. @bluewhalenews

Ah this explains why the whale shark in that viral clip looks like it is feeding on dead fish. Because it is being fed dead fish.

Advice to grad students: when you write a paper, use a gmail (or similar) for corresponding, instead of your institutional email, since institutional emails usually expire when you graduate. That way people interested in your paper can correspond with you.
Paper title 1829 [French original]: Notice on the Whale stranded near Ostend, November 5, 1827, and on the celebrations given by H. Kessels, on the occasion of the taking possession, in the name of his majesty the King of the Netherlands, of the skeleton of this cetacean.
Are you using acronyms because you are too lazy to type out common phrases? They reduce comprehension by readers. Instead, use autocorrect to expand your acronyms
Apparently a thing some people routinely do is make a bunch of slides and then just roughly remember what they were going to say in response to each slide without speaker notes, I cannot imagine being able to do that.

It's been almost two months since the invoice for journal page charges hit the desk of @UW ADPES, and they haven't approved it. Why is this an unusual request requiring two months to consider?

Welcome to our family Khalea! Finally adopted today!!! We love you more than words can express. 💜 ❤️ ♥️
@TrevorABranch This really bugs me, why should I have to guess what the main subject of the paper is?
Coworker today: Hey Mason, thanks for helping with this analysis, here is the data I've gone ahead and cleaned it for you so this should be easy. And you know what? THEY WERE RIGHT. Arguably the tidiest dataset I've seen, and yes I am VERY excited about this.
@TrevorABranch Same goes for not having the study site location on the title. I remember having this conversation with my PhD mentor back in the day. A way to make your paper less parochial, increase the broader relevance + chances of publication. As someone says, reviewers often recommend it.
@JennyAllen13 @TrevorABranch Might be like one paper on jellyfish trophic ecology which we were told was 'too jellyfish focused'...
Insight in the replies as to why this kind of nonsense seems to be spreading.
I've seen a recent trend in titles of papers towards very general descriptions of a single species study, e.g. "In a marine top predator" or "in a capital breeder" instead of the name of the species involved. Seems like some working on those species might miss the papers?
@TrevorABranch this is done to 'increase the impact' of the paper
@TrevorABranch It depends on what the research question is and who the target audience is. For me, is it relevant that they are squirrels, or that they are capital breeders? Also, how the rest of the title is constructed (e.g., if already mentioned capital resources, then I'll say squirrel)
@TrevorABranch There's very strong evidence that including species names reduces the citation impact of papers. It seems that readers are too quick to dismiss such a paper as not of general interest 🙄
@TrevorABranch Imho this may increase higher chances of getting the paper published in a big one. More generalist journals often require generalist titles so that AE or EIC do not reject it...
@AnthonyPress @TrevorABranch Welcome to Science, where ridiculous is the norm. 😋
They are forcing us to pay to come and work in a sterile florescent lit cubicle farm, and we can't keep any of our stuff or put up pictures.
@AnneWHilborn You can pick one of three state-approved pictures to hang for a small fee of $47.50.
@TrevorABranch In my experience, this often comes from authors trying to aim for higher impact, broader journals. Some journal seem reticent to accept papers that they feel are "single species focused", driving authors to use broad (and often vague) terms instead.
@venturellilab @not_Klaatu @TrevorABranch @UofRLimno @EcoInvasions @evornithology @AlbrechtS_H @jennyperry @KirkwoodLab @festa_bianchet We rarely cite the thesis...
@TrevorABranch Ideally the keywords include the species name?
