On the International Day of Forests, don't forget the many insects that thrive in forests and the entomologists who work on them! #ForestDay #IntlForestDay resjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/146195…

@mlstantial Congrats! That’s so exciting!

What are the benefits of growing season burns? #FuelMitigation #KsFire #RxBurn

@cap1096 I unfortunately can’t be there, but my poster will! A co-author/mentor, David with NPS, will be presenting it. He’s great and you should definitely say hi 😊 He does a lot of collaboration with MSU.

Any tips for networking at a conference as a prospective grad student? I’m going to a Yellowstone Science conference for my job but am also hoping to use it as an opportunity to help in the grad search process. Networking is very intimidating 😬 and I gotta put my brave face on!

Check out my paper on southern pine beetle hazard in pitch pine barrens! Very excited to get this work out there 🪲🔥🌲 @UVM_RSENR #pinebarrens #southernpinebeetle #firedependent

Please share: We have $8,000+ in funds to be awarded this spring for KU student research taking place during 2022–2023! Application deadline March 25. Learn more and apply online: biosurvey.ku.edu/student-resear…

Heyo! I'm Cameron, a prospective grad student with 5+ years of field experience in avian & ungulate ecology,tracking tech & envi ed. I'm looking for leads on MSc/PhD ops to study spacial/pop/behavioral ecology & conbio. Please RT or send tips on the grad search process. Thanks!

I'm excited to announce that I'm recruiting a MS student to work on a neat, collaborative, project on turtle nesting habitat conservation. Ideal start date is 1/1/2022, but is flexible. Interested candidates should apply by 11/19/2021. #ecologyjobs #iliketurtles #stem #MSposition

RSENR Master's Thesis Defense Webinar: TODAY Sept 2 at 3pm ET. Elizabeth Jamison will present "Assessing Northeastern Pitch Pine Barrens to Inform Adaptation Management in the Context of Mesophication & Southern Pine Beetle Impacts." go.uvm.edu/6lh1 @ejjamis @awdamato

@Dendrochronicle That’s so interesting! It’s a similar concept here. Pine “barrens” refers to sandy, nutrient-poor soils that primarily support open-canopy pitch pine. European colonizers weren’t able to grow crops on this soil, so they called these communities “barrens”!

@ejjamis Excellent topic. I research old woodlands in Scotland-that term ‘barren’ was used in historic documents here-‘barren wood’ was the less valuable tree taxa (not oak or pine) the tenantry were allowed to use. What does ‘pinebarren’ mean there please? Wonder if there’s a connection!

I’m defending my MS thesis! I’ve been studying how northeastern pitch pine barrens can be managed to preserve historic ecological characteristics and improve resilience to future threats. So excited to share this work! #pinebarrens #southernpinebeetle #firedependent #pitchpine

Glad to be here, thanks for the shoutout!!!

@karley0 Thanks Karley! I’m planning to record it and would be happy to share 😊

every time i find painted trillium (Trillium undulatum) is like the first time: an audible gasp, a few minutes basking in the glory, and a mini photoshoot to get all the best angles. then rinse and repeat for literally every individual in the population #wildflowers #botany

once every 20 years, researchers at Michigan State University sneak out to a secret spot on campus in the dead of night to dig up one of the world's oldest experiments. it happened last week. i wrote it up for the NYT: nytimes.com/2021/04/21/sci…

I have to get this off my chest(nut), we found a mature American Chestnut! Thanks to chestnut blight, it's a rare find to see one in the overstory, so needless to say, today was quite the treat #chestnut #AmericanChestnut

Trees will literally grow hundreds of four inch long thorns instead of going to therapy. #honeylocust
