@earth_andrew Andrew - I've worked at the same institution as you for 30 years, and have been the prime on many sub-contracts to other institutions. I've never encountered anything like what you describe. Quite the opposite. Deep professionalism and commitment.

As a certain for profit family of journals methodically displaces much of the traditional scientific publication space, I'm glad to see Science making this point. It needs to be said more often.... Proudly nonprofit | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Fire Facts from a Boreal 🔥 Ecologist to help you understand what is really going on in Canada. Fire Fact 1: The term “forest fire” is misleading in boreal regions. Also burning are peatlands and permafrost ecosystems, which store LOTS of ancient carbon. 1/

Helicopter view of the current forest fire in Canada approximately 10 hectares of trees are in flames !!! Pray for everyone’s safety fighting these fires!

Bumped into an old friend from Montreal at the Bruins game in Boston last night: Yvan Cournoyer. 16 Seasons, 10 Stanley Cups. One of the greatest ever and a true gentleman! Huge thrill for a kid who grew up playing & obsessed with hockey in Montreal #GoHabsGo

Check out this new paper from recent LCSC PhD Leticia Lee in #AFM! We use UAV imagery and airborne LiDAR to show how variation in canopy shadows + solar zenith angle affect VIs, leaf area, and fAPAR from harmonized #Landsat and #Sentinel 2 imagery. doi.org/10.1016/j.agrf…

Today marks two years since the Biden-Harris administration began. I’ve been reflecting on how fortunate we’ve been to have the steady leadership of @POTUS and @VP—and all the public servants working to deliver for folks across the country.

@rabernat This is a great piece @rabernat, very consistent with my experience; well worth a read for anyone sitting on the academic-start up fence! A key issue that you don't really discuss is balancing responsibilities to your lab vs your team at Earthmover. Time is finite!
