I don't comment often, but a video quality this high doesn't deserve an empty comment section. Since I'm here I might as well offer feedback: I have nothing to complain about the visuals, but the audio could probably a bit better: its nothing dramatic, as an audiophile I'm just nitpicky: It seems like the low-mid frequencies (~500Hz) are overpowering the highs a bit, which makes some sibilants harder to hear. Not sure if the mic is responsible by boosting the low-mids or if some audio processing is reducing the highs (aggressive noise suppression tends to muffle them, especially if the recording has reverb in it). I don't have anything to say on the topic of the video, but I enjoyed the concise presentation of a concept from a field I never heard about before.
Thanks for you comment and thanks so much for watching! I agree about the sound -- I have a pretty cheap mic. Additionally, the audio was initially pretty echo-y, so I did some "de-reverb"-ing to fix that problem. Perhaps that's why the low-mid frequencies are a bit over-represented? Anyway, thanks again for taking the time to write your comment -- I really appreciate it. I hope you'll come back for more! :)
Just found this video and I'm blown away that you have so few subscribers! This is excellent quality content both in info and presentation. Thank you! I'm writing this before checking if you have more videos... Fingers crossed!
Definitely!! educational content does not get pushed like mind rot. I googled two phylum’s can not accupy same nitch and found it. Only after remembering this principal from school and wanted to refresh in order to make a hypothesis towards humans. If humans from different cultures enter the same ecosystem then the humans with a stronger culture will succeed more overall because do to the rule of competitive exclusion in biology states the stronger phylum will survive.
Do keep in mind this principle isn’t nearly as cut and dry as often assumed, especially at the level of entire taxonomic groups. A lot of supposed cases in the fossil record of two clades competing to the point one is outcompeted to extinction fail to hold up under closer scrutiny (often, the timeline doesn’t make sense, the supposed advantages of the “more competitive” group are suspect or even made up, or both).
Thanks for your comment! Indeed, it gets pretty difficult / questionable when one tries to apply these ideas from community ecology to larger evolutionary patterns (although some people certainly have tried!).
There's a few videos set to private -- they are just other versions of the released videos that had errors. I must have forgotten to remove from the playlist. But I'll be releasing some new videos very soon!

Deserves more subs
👍
So I had no idea there are different species of diatoms :/
What's with the unavailable vids? Yours, unassuaged.
