Truly sorry about Dennett's passing. A great philosopher, took biology seriously, and a very considerate person as I had reason to know.

Up the Australian east coast, an average of 14% of plant species are lost per oC increase in mean annual temperature, and 20% are gained. @Oikos_Journal doi.org/10.1111/oik.10…

There’s an interesting bit of insect ecology on display at the moment. I’m sure you remember the massive acorn crop last year (autumn 2022, below). Because Quercus robur is alternate-bearing (big crops are always followed by little crops) we predicted a very low crop this year

I love these ‘reflections on papers past’ interviews complied by Hari Sridhar. Where he interviews authors of influential papers, how they came to be, and their impact. Now nicely summarized in one place. reflectionsonpaperspast.wordpress.com/interview-list/
Bristlecone pines -- the longest-lived tree species on Earth -- are succumbing to drought/heat & bark beetles in CA's White Mtns. It's been suggested these trees are largely resistant to bark beetles, but I've been finding more & more evidence they're being successfully attacked.

"A scholar is just a library's way of making another library." - Daniel Dennett (1942-2024)
Dan Dennett was a great philosopher, skilled with words, images, thought experiments & intuition pumps. But unlike many clever philosophers (to borrow from PB Medawar) he had something important to be clever ABOUT, namely science. Much more yet, he was a dear friend. So very sad.

Botanical monsters. This strange plant attracted attention this morning for its fresh young leaves amonst the otherwise autumnal grassland. The weather has been so damp of late, that the seeds have germinated before leaving the flower-head. Plantago lanceolata.
