Do you have undergrads interested in collections-based research? Have them apply to go work with @jmheberling.bsky.social at CMNH! I cannot imagine a better place to work over the summer

In case anyone wants a little break, here are a few of my favorite facts that I learned in 2025, in no particular order. Some trees benefit from, and may even encourage, getting struck by lightning because it kills their nearby competitors nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...

When I forget to add a fill to my half-eye plot in R

Torn between going to BSA or ESA this year. Might also try to attend the Natural Areas conference in October since it's just up the road in Asheville.

So if not extra time, then what? Students clearly need SOMETHING—but we’ve leaned on this single accommodation for decades, which means other scalable options haven’t gotten much attention. Genuinely asking: Instructors + students with disabilities: what’s actually worked for you?

excited to hear about the new @usa-npn.bsky.social Nature's Notebook app! phenophase definitions and reference images, new funcationality for advanced traits, adding photos, geolocation tags...and more! #NPNLPLconference #makinguphashtags

I've never been at the center of one of these before. Gonna be fun

Great National Phenology Network conference on local phenology leaders going on this week online. Really enjoying and learning new ideas from the talks so far! usanpn.org/community/Lo... @usa-npn.bsky.social

damn what is wrong with me, i am having the hardest time concentrating on work, i lament as i compulsively refresh live feeds of unspeakable horrors

Not a single day in 2025 was cooler than the 1991-2020 average, on a global scale. @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social

Please repost! The LOC Lab @UCSB is recruiting a #PostdoctoralScholar in forest ecology and data science to develop data-driven models of forest resilience to compound disturbances (e.g., fire, drought, insects). 🌱🍁🌏🧪🌐 Applications due Feb 5 Apply here: www.landscapesofchangelab.com/were-hiring-1

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

Here's an opportunity to lead research at Kilpisjärvi Biological Station (northern Finland, but close to the border with Norway and Sweden). An amazing place and job. Please forward to Arctic-focused folk. jobs.helsinki.fi/job/Helsinki...

I'm recruiting a #PhDstudent ! Deadline Feb 10th! Explore how forest management shapes peatlands, riparian zones, streams and the #biodiversity that depends on them. www.slu.se/en/about-slu...

Very cool work by Bryan Black here at the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research establishing the exact date of the Electron Mudflow in the Puget Sound metropolitan area: 'Forest-floor burial in 1507 by the largest Mount Rainier lahar of the past millennium' doi.org/10.1130/G537...

Amazing. Got my first unsolicited email review of a paper from an AI company, also telling me what follow up work to do. So inexpensive to get even more insights! This is wonderful, and I am planning to budget for this in all future work, right below the priority to fund a space circus on the moon.

The first school to market itself as AI free is going to corner the market on people interested in actually learning. And I would not be surprised if rich families and the children of people creating this tech were the first movers.

Got hired to go on day hikes and count tree seedlings up on Mt. Rainier as an undergrad and distinctly remember having the thought: "how long can I get away with being paid to do this?" Answer: 15 years and counting

Do you look at this and see at least 10 plant species? Then you are ready for #Plantsgiving 2025! How many species will be served during your meal??? It ain't a competition, it's just about recognition. #iamabotanist @botsocamerica.bsky.social @nybg.bsky.social

I am currently searching for a new postdoctoral researcher to study the evolution, genetics, and physiology of cold acclimation and freezing tolerance in switchgrass at Michigan State University. This work will be funded by a newly funded five-year DOE grant. careers.msu.edu/jobs/researc...
