My observation for the @forestsat.bsky.social pre-conference #PACE webinar. 😉

Them: "Have you looked at the #hyperspectral data from NASA's PACE OCI (pace.oceansciences.org/oci.htm )?" Me: "But it's an Ocean Color Instrument and I'm all about land." Them: "It also monitors the land." Me:

Happening in ~40 minutes. DO tune in! Details ⬇️

FWIW, happy belated birthday to Duncan MacLeod, the #Highlander, whose 433rd birthday was yesterday, 21st December. 🫡 He was born in the Scottish Highlands on the winter solstice in 1592.

Them: We would like you to join the new Transformative Tiger Team. Me: What? Tigers that transform? 🤔

Ten people who shaped science in 2025 https://www.newsbeep.com/us/337659/ A fired public-health official, a mosquito breeder and a baby with a smile seen around the world. These…

#GISchat: Twenty years ago, I didn't really *get* the concept of #geodatabases but was told by multiple folks I respect that if I stuck with #shapefiles I'd be stuck in the past. Yet here we are in 2025, and geodatabases don't seem to have gone anywhere and I still use shapefiles. Hmmm... 🤔

I wonder 🤔 what #BelizeanTwitter - I mean #BelizeanSky - thinks about this? 😂 #QuarterZips

This 👇

There's a real humanitarian fellow in #Huntsville, AL with deep connections to #Belize's neighbor to the west, and each year he and his family organize Christmas cheer for kids in northern #Guatemala. DO check out the following + support it if you can. 🙏 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk9P...

Happy GIS Day, fellow map 🗺️ nerds!! 🤓 #GISday2025 #GISchat

ℹ️🛰️ Canadian Agricultural Science from Space 🍁🧪 How does Canada's #RADARSAT Constellation of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites support Canadian agricultural monitoring? Check out the video we did in 2019 that explains it all ⤵️ - via agriculture.Canada.ca 🔗 youtu.be/0I0p9GAv3hk?...

#EOsky / #GISsky 🧪: Did you miss our #AmeriGEO webinar on NASA's #PACE 🛰️ mission two weeks ago? 🤦‍♂️ Fear not! 😲 #YouTube's got you covered #hyperspectral -ly speaking: youtu.be/nOXNXBQR3cw. 🧐

“Results show that for every reported professional benefit that scientists once gained from Twitter, scientists can now gain that benefit more effectively on Bluesky than on Twitter.” Boom. Mic drop.

#LinkedIn, or the land of, "I'm happy to announce..." 😹

This 👇. I'm also missing #ScienceTwitter and I can't figure how to get my #ScienceSky 🧪 -tagged skeets into the official Science Sky feed. 🤷‍♂️ For a while, #LinkedIn felt like it was the successor to Twitter, but it's probably not. 😿

I feel like Bluesky still lacks *something* that Science Twitter had. Yes, Twitter sucks now, but Bluesky is a pretty anemic replacement. Maybe it's less engagement or cross-talk, but it still feels very hollow here. I used to have whole conversations on Sci. Twitter, but that doesn't happen here.

Here is a press release/ summary blog post about our new paper. Key conclusion: For every single professional use that scientists used to use Twitter for, Twitter is much worse now than it used to be, and Bluesky is better that Twitter currently is. www.southernfriedscience.com/twitter-suck...

Hey everybody! @drjuliawester.bsky.social and I have a new paper! We surveyed over 800 scientists, science communicators, and science educators who use social media. Conclusion: Scientists no longer find Twitter useful or pleasant, and many have switched to Bluesky! 🧪🌎🦑 doi.org/10.1093/icb/...

"Twitter sucks now and all the cool kids are moving to Bluesky:" Our new survey shows that scientists no longer find Twitter professionally useful or pleasant www.southernfriedscience.com/twitter-suck...
