🚨 New paper alert! We detail the MAMMOTH @SoIB_India effort, hoping that our analytical framework (and #OpenSource codebase), serves as a blueprint for similar #StateofBirds assessments in other #GlobalSouth regions. (1/n)
State of India's Birds 2023 report, developed by a consortium of leading research institutions and conservation organisations, assesses the status of 942 bird species using data contributed by thousands of birdwatchers through the eBird citizen science platform.
Thank you for this contribution to @ESAEcosphere!🙌

Human-made water habitats such as centuries-old water tanks and fountains are key habitats for amphibians. Paper lead by @JoseValdezPhD in @ESAEcosphere. This work is special to me because it was carried out by students of the Nature Conservation course @UniHalle at #PNPG. 1/2🧵
