HiLIFE webinar / Viikki Monday Seminar: Alex Pigot

Thresholds for biodiversity loss on a rapidly warming planet

Alex is a Royal Society funded Principal Research Fellow at University College London. He obtained a BSc Hons. from UCL and his PhD in Biology from Imperial College London. His research focusses on understanding the origin and distribution of large scale gradients in biodiversity and the biological responses to global change. His work has been used as a biodiversity risk metric in the IPCC Summary for Policy Makers (2023), and he is a contributing author on the IPCC 6th Assessment WGII Report (2022). His research aims to support global policy to mitigate climate change and to inform conservation decision making.

Abstract: Climate change is a major threat to human society and to the species and ecosystems on which we depend. Warming over recent decades has already driven increasingly widespread declines of local populations, shifts in species geographic distributions and the restructuring of ecological communities. And, in the absence of massive emission reductions to limit future warming, these impacts will continue to escalate over the coming decades. But what does this future journey look like for biodiversity? Do risks to biodiversity rise gradually and in proportion to the level of warming? Or are there levels of warming beyond which populations, species, and ecosystems, are at risk of sudden and simultaneous collapse across wide areas? If so, what abiotic and biotic features determine the sharpness of these thresholds and how can they be avoided? In this talk I will share some thoughts on these questions and discuss recent, ongoing, and future work in our lab to understand the climate risks to biodiversity on a rapidly warming planet.

Biostatistics drop-in workshop

Are you a researcher needing support with any statistical aspect of your work? The Biostatistics Consulting Service here at Meilahti Campus holds drop-in workshop sessions every other week to answer smaller questions about your analysis - solving a particular problem, how to get started, etc. We provide service in Finnish, English and Swedish.

 

The next workshop (the last one before the summer break) is on Wednesday 22nd May, at 13:00-15:00 in Biomedicum 2B, in the Olohuone on floor 6. Come whenever you can. Note that you may end up waiting a while for your turn, especially early on in the session. We aim to spend no more than 15 minutes with each customer.

 

Bring: 

·       your computer

·       your data

·       your questions

and we biostatisticians will be on hand to help and guide. 

 

Registration is not required, but you can help us prepare for your questions by filling in this form. The workshops are open to any researcher at the university's Medical Faculty, HUS or FIMM.

This is the last session for this academic year. We plan to continue again in August.

 

For more in-depth questions, please book a one-on-one consultation session using this e-form where we will have time to go into more detail.
