Excited to be in Portland for #Ducks9!
I’ll be talking about counting ducks from helicopters in the western boreal and Ontario’s far north and have some posters about some work we are doing in the Prairies with camera traps, drones, and genomics.

📢Radeloff et al. (2024) discuss the need to monitor global changes in #climate, #landcover, and #landuse, which threaten natural ecosystems, biodiversity, and vital ecosystem services.
It proposes creating a suite of 13 essential global medium-resolution satellite data products to track and monitor spatiotemporal changes. These products, designed for both management and scientific purposes, will enhance understanding of the biosphere, cryosphere, and hydrosphere. 🌊🧊🌲
➡️The paper emphasizes leveraging the capabilities of #Landsat and #Sentinel2 satellites, building upon the success of NASA's MODIS/VIIRS products. This initiative aims to provide high-level, standardized, and consistent products to fulfill the long-standing vision of the Landsat program. 🛰️
