Sliding Thoughts

Funny Titles!

And now I bring you…funny scientific article names:

The uncertain blitzkrieg of Pleistocene megafauna (apparently the megafauna were not as sure about their attack as they should have been)

Amphibian road mortality in response to nightly variations in traffic intensity (no, Fred, don’t cross the road! It’s not worth it!)

From species to supertrees… (trees with capes and powers)

Bias in the mean tree model as a consequence of Jensen’s Inequality (Those trees have really got to stop being so rude)

Response of birds to thinning young Douglas-fir forests (ok, so they’re going bald. It doesn’t mean you have to reject them so coldly!)

I would love to see these as The Far Side cartoons.
