#LeshnerFellow & @stonybrooku Prof. Heather Lynch studies population dynamics of Antarctic wildlife (🐧🐋🦭), with help from satellite annotation tools developed by her group at @TheLynchLab. Her #SciEngage includes writing a script for a TV drama exploring ethical issues of AI.

On Elephant Island in the Antarctic Peninsula, chinstrap penguin populations have declined by 50% since 1970. Marine protections in the region could help. pew.org/2XZZ4Qx #PenguinAwarenessDay

But there was a curious geographic difference. On the south shore, the declines were much worse than on the north shore - 73.2% compared to 20.5%.

Overall, the Chinstrap population declined on Elephant, and the Gentoo population doubled. But it's a little more complicated. The largest colony "Chinstrap Camp" declined by 70%. All together, it was a 57% decline on the island.

"While nothing beats the experience of being up close and personal with wildlife, satellite imagery gives us an entirely new perspective on Antarctica and a fighting chance to protect the continent's most vulnerable animal populations"
National Geographic Society@InsideNatGeo

Today for #GeoWeek, we’re highlighting the work of Explorer Dr. Heather Lynch (@thelynchlab). As a quantitative ecologist, she has helped pioneer the use of satellite imagery for studying the presence, abundance and even diet of Antarctic penguins! 🐧

Looking from land, air, and space, the story of Chinstrap #penguins these days is mixed. Some very dramatic declines, fewer increases, and some we're only assessing for the first time. 🐧🛰📉 The short story: we have 3.4 million breeding pairs. #Abs1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nature.com/articles/s4159…
