I’m excited to share my latest paper in @Forestry_OUP for a new method of generating hemispherical photos from smartphones to estimate forest canopy measures. The results are even better than DSLRs, as I explain in this thread. (PDF on my website). 1/16

Congratulations on getting through the counts!

💪🏾I've finished going through 5 years of peat soil samples from two sites of our #BRACE climate change experiment (Northern Ontario). I counted/morphotyped impressive ~𝟖𝟖𝐤 microarthropods in total, most being #oribatid #mites Now time to ID the oribatids. #peatland #fen

Surprisingly helpful for old minds as well :)

📔 New paper with @LindoLab on #oribatid mites is out in @FrontYoungMinds . This was a really nice exercise and we thank the two young reviewers and @MalteJochum @BeugnonRemy @helenherself for their comments and guidance. #soilbiodiversity @theGSBI kids.frontiersin.org/article/10.338…

Since the beginning of lockdown, @BaylaArt and I have been collecting bird carcasses from window strikes at @Yale SOM, which was unthinkingly designed to be one of the world's most effective bird killing architectural mistakes.

@wdhalliday This was a long road, but thanks to amazing co-authors we came out three years of samples. @wdhalliday summarized our paper well! Very excited to see this out in #openaccess!

Are you excited about soil food webs? Check out our (@oppiella & myself) paper and R code. We share some handy new soil food web model features and a cautionary tale about lumping together organisms with different parameters (especially C:N ratio). dx.doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…

@barretocra No I also go clockwise...anti-clockwise is mostly for dealing playing cards in my opinion :)

@BuchkowskiR Also, do you draw it anti clockwise like the figure? I go clockwise

😂 This reminds of my first time in the field with @LindoLab taking notes on peatland plant abundance in 2017. That was the moment we realised that my way of counting wasn't their usual - funny enough, I've converted everyone to my way.
I draw squares, how about you?

@rafazenni @urban_sci @EcoInvasions @ColauttiLab @carlyziter @jscottmacivor @RicardoAdelino_ It is native that is true, though it is imported and planted into regions where other species used to dominate the forests. Like eucalyptus, it is being genetically enhanced to speed up production.

@rafazenni @urban_sci @EcoInvasions @ColauttiLab @carlyziter @jscottmacivor @RicardoAdelino_ Canada produces wood pulp (pulp and paper) from white spruce trees, which can be cut only every 25-50 years because they grow slowly in our cold climate. This is much longer than the 6-7 year rotations for eucalyptus in Brazil (data from Bahia).

My partner @BaylaArt is an amazing scientific illustrator, but she doesn't use Tw much (even though I told her that this is where all the science is!).
Think yall could RT to help her out?
And maybe keep her in mind for all the quarantine papers your working on?

I had tones of fun collaborating on this project and now I'm very excited to see it published. What a great end to a Monday!
