POSTDOC ANNOUNCEMENT We're looking for a postdoc to join the lab to work on spatial modeling of pheasant abundance. Experience with machine learning, connectivity modeling, and advanced coding in R preferred. jobs.rwfm.tamu.edu/view-job/?id=9…

Posting extended to 7/5.

More than excited to announce that we're recruiting a 4- year postdoc at the University of Montana focused on eco-evolutionary modeling of bats affected by White-nose Syndrome! See here for details drive.google.com/file/d/1dFDgAp…

Thrilled to share our new paper in @MethodsEcolEvol that introduces the spAbundance R package for fitting a variety of single-species and multi-species spatially explicit abundance models! doi.org/10.1111/2041-2…

Species distribution modeling of blacklegged ticks is important for the study of #LymeDisease, but doing it well is tricky. We recently reviewed 22 models using the ODMAP checklist & made recommendations for improved #tick SDMs. tinyurl.com/2s3dtfat #lymediseaseawarenessmonth

Paid one-year salamander research opportunity!

Please circulate widely. We are recruiting for 1 year paid (with benefits) research fellowships for recent undergrads as part of an NSF RaMP program. Participants will be paired with PIs in our regional salamander monitoring and research network. Applications due April 14th.

@FletcherEcology @iale_na Hope to see you!

Interested in bats? Do you have experience with acoustic monitoring? Join my labgroup! Recruiting a MS student for fall semester start. Field work could start this summer. tracyrittenhouse.weebly.com/join-the-lab.h…

We are hiring a #TenureTrack Assistant/Associate Professor of Stream or Wetland #Ecology who will develop a research program and design/teach courses required as part of the #Environmental Science major. Learn more and apply at osu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/OSUCareers/job…. #Hiring #EcologyJobs

Very excited to announce my new R package spAbundance for fitting single-species and multi-species spatially-explicit N-mixture models, distance sampling models, and GLMMs. Includes options for random intercepts/slopes and species correlations. #rstats jeffdoser.com/files/spabunda….

Please RT: The Gibbs Lab at Ohio State U. is recruiting a Postdoc to lead a project on the conservation genomics of Massasauga Rattlesnakes, Columbus, Ohio, USA. Start date: 1 Sept 2023. Salary: $60K with benefits for 2 years. More information: u.osu.edu/gibbslab/news/

Announcement for the second of two new MS assistantships in my lab at U. Arizona with the AZ @USGSCoopUnits. The student will examine the ecology of non-native bullfrogs in southeast Arizona to help inform ongoing control of this invasive species. Please RT! @UASNRE

Our mark-recapture is ongoing, and we hope to explore drivers for the observed differences in the future. Great work by @meaghan_regina @Gouldpr0 @Wilk_Sci @mudpuppy_love @naturehoffman and many other Twitterless lab members. 5/5

The differences in growth rates results female maturity being delayed by a year or more (top panel). So what? Well, this delay could result in up to a 43% reduction in lifetime fecundity. And all these differences occurred at plots separated by 100-m! 4/n

This paper has been a LONG time coming (perhaps my most painful review yet). A full lab collaborative project and effort. This paper stems from our local @SPARCnet_Sals survey plots. Happy to see this out and proud of the work by all involved! dx.doi.org/10.1002/ece3.9… 1/n

@MaggieHantak @univofdayton Congrats! Hope to see you around Ohio soon.
