After engaging presentations from Michael Anthony, S. Karthik Mukkavilli and @milliechapman.bsky.social, we are now discussing the pipeline from AI to Impact, moderated by Sarah Tariq. Take home message: the fairness and trustworthiness of models are key for supporting society as a whole.

New article out in Geo: Geography and Environment with an interdisciplinary dream team of coauthors: “From maps to models: Participation and contestability in the dynamic management of natural resources.” doi.org/10.1002/geo2... (open access)

The High Seas Treaty is poised to be ratified, creating a legal instrument for protected areas in the high seas. We see a crucial role for "Collective Science" to provide robust biodiversity data and to help inform protection of this vast 3D space. Read more in Ecology Letters: tinyurl.com/33637jax

The Environmental Policy Lab at @ethz.ch is hiring! 🌱 A Postdoc broadly interested in resilient data infrastructure & policy for biodiversity governance 🌱 Two PhD students interested in biodiversity policy and spatial planning more info here: epl.ethz.ch/the-group/op... Please share widely! 🌍

📢 New research out today! Led by Justin Johnson from the @umn-econ.bsky.social our article presents 🌏 Earth-Economy (EE) modelling as a general approach for decision support for sustainability through a review of progress in Earth-Economy models linking Earth system and economic modelling.

"We suggest that the scientific community needs to think carefully about where we find worth in what we do. LLMs are eroding that space. Let’s not lose sight of the depth and complexity inherent in the human activity of science."

@milliechapman.bsky.social is getting into film... to me, these images really encapsulate the feeling of a cold Monterey Peninsula surf in rhythm with the kelp, waves, and wildlife

Integrated spatial planning is used to identify where restoration, conservation and production across Europe could maximize benefits to species conservation and climate mitigation under changing needs for food, bioenergy and timber to 2030 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our new work led by @milliechapman.bsky.social on the NRR is out in @natureecoevo.bsky.social 🎉 Integrated spatial planning can identify opportunities for restoration, while considering future land demand and burden sharing. Paper: doi.org/10.1038/s415... @iiasa.ac.at @naturaconnect.bsky.social

I know for a fact that should AGI come about, it will not be able to do the cognitive task that most matters to me: engage with the world, figure out what I think and believe and then express those things to others as part of a community. Who's with me? www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/john-...

Thrilled to see "Biodiversity monitoring for a just planetary future" now out in Science! Led by @milliechapman.bsky.social in collaboration with 14 coauthors from ecology, sociology, geography, computer science and other disciplines. 🌏 🦋 doi.org/10.1126/scie...

I'm stoked to see that "Biodiversity monitoring for a just planetary future" is now out in Science! This effort was led by @milliechapman.bsky.social in collaboration with 14 coauthors including myself spanning many disciplines. Preview below. DM for PDF. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

"Environment, Society, and Machine Learning" is now live! I had the privilege of coauthoring this piece with 9 brilliant colleagues. Thanks, Christian Borch & @pardoguerra.bsky.social for including our chapter in the forthcoming Oxford Handbook of the Sociology of ML! doi.org/10.1093/oxfo...
