Continuing our @TwidwellLab member features, @ALudwig7 is working with the American Burying Beetle, an #endangeredspecies in #Nebraska! She is researching their response to tree invasion of grasslands and #fire.

I assisted Nebraska Game and Parks Commission this week with the annual surveys for the endangered American burying beetle. We had a great time looking for these amazing beetles in the Loess Canyons! @TwidwellLab @NEGameandParks

@DonovanTori, a @TwidwellLab member, studies how ecosystem processes like fire shape system function and resilience. Her research extends across many systems/scales--from eastern ponderosa pine forests to the entire western USA. Check out her work scholar.google.com/citations?hl=e…

Twidwell lab members @DonovanTori, @dillon_fogarty, @CB1920, and Daniel Uden got a grant to attend @SESYNC in Annapolis, MD where they're designing a case study for teaching socio-environmental synthesis! Way to go!

It was wonderful getting some beef cattle and ranching time today in the Bighorns. Nothing like a great set of cows and calves in grass up to their bellies managed with land conservation and stewardship. #CowsRLife #Beef #Sustainability

@TwidwellLab members @dillon_fogarty, @ALudwig7, @CB1920 did a fieldwork blitz in the Loess Canyons of #Nebraska! They're working with ranchers to understand how #fire restores grasslands.
Hint: 🔥 kills trees and encourages grass 😉

Research from Nebraska shows that climate change is partly to blame for US ecosystems shifting hundreds of miles north based on analysis of nearly 50 years worth of data. Read more ›› ow.ly/C6rh50uS7v7 #UNL
