I've been lax on Twitter lately, but I definitely want to share my new paper on the state of drone research with seals and sea lions! Thanks @dioptrica for your mentorship, encouragement, and coauthorship on this project. Take a look, it's open access! doi.org/10.1111/mam.12…
David W Johnston@dioptrica

Congrats @GregDLarsen on recent paper in Mammal Review detailing present & future applications of drones in the study & conservation of pinnipeds! Check it out: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… @MarineUAS @DukeU @DukeEnvironment @WakeForest @silmanmr @2xjswenson #drones4Good

@GBMerrjr 100%, what other job "trains" you for 6-10 years on a static, noncompetitive salary - just for an unpromised opportunity to compete later? It's exploitation. I love the work that I do, but it's crippling my financial future.

@GregDLarsen Strong proponent of abolishing post docs; artificial positions created to keep wages low. I’m not saying there’s nothing to learn, but if after a PhD you’re not ready for academia, that’s a failure of graduate programs. Highly skilled labor deserves fair compensation.

If I leave academia, this is the top reason why. I make less as a postdoc at a private university than I did 7 years ago, working as an academic editor with only a bachelor's degree. And I am expected to move every couple years until I maybe get tenure? nature.com/articles/d4158…

Found this visualization during some post-dissertation cleanup: elevation data from satellite (in 2-m resolution!) overlaid on Sentinel-2 imagery of SW Anvers Island. Special thanks to @polargeospatial for generating the DEMs that rounded out my chapter for @PalmerLTER!

I'm proud to finally share my first first-author publication (!), a summary + analysis of fine-scale seal and sea lion distributions on land, w/ drone data from a collaboration of @MarineUAS, the Aleut Community of Saint Paul, and NOAA's Marine Mammal Lab. cdnsciencepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

P.S. I made this poster with ArcGIS and PowerPoint because I'm trying to defend this summer and don't have time to learn illustrator. Just my measly contribution to the poster riots in #AcademicTwitter!

I'm proud to share this poster summarizing work done by our @BassConnections team throughout the two-semester course I've been leading. Our students tackled some challenging data-wrangling skills in #gis and #remotesensing to study the changing biogeography of Antarctica!

Mesopelagic fishes have potential as a commercial resource. But what are possible economic tradeoffs & ecological impacts of a mesopelagic fishery? I'm so excited to share my 1st paper, out now in Ecological Applications doi.org/10.1002/eap.25… 📸: Paul Caiger

Grateful to be included in this paper - @clifgray is really advancing the limits of oceanography at scales that are so hard to study. I'm proud that I get to assist in fieldwork and write-ups!
Patrick Gray@clifgray

My first chapter is out!! @Grogology @dioptrica and I discuss the challenges and promise of drones in biological/optical oceanography and share an optimistic vision for the future. Paper at doi.org/10.1002/fee.24… or bit.ly/3sGJlor if you don't have access.

A GoPro video was taken around the oyster block and frames were used to stitch together to create a 3D model
