  1. Here's an interesting preprint on #EcoEvoRxiv (not yet peer reviewed). Its authors use eBird's massive citizen science database to reassess a long held pattern in macroecology, the abundance-occupancy relationship. That says that more widespread species (those with larger ranges) are also typically more abundant, on average. Yet, looking at this big bird dataset, it looks like this is not true. Which is interesting!

  2. @sortee @royalsociety great to promote paper versions but #arXiv already does that. It is customary in math and some other disciplines to do minor updates there. And you can do major ones if you like too. Surely #EcoEvoRxiv can help since it is also a #postprint server. Probably more suitable for literature corrections than GitHub (which is definitely useful for code correction, but not enough alone).
