What do microhabitat suitabilities above range edges tell us about potential species distribution shifts?! Huge thank you to @rangelimits @katie_gwin and others for this fun collaboration while a PostDoc at @UBCBiodiversity! doi.org/10.1111/ecog.07144

Check our latest contribution showing that genetic diversity is essential to preserving #biodiversity, allowing animals and plants to adapt to global warming. A call to increase monitoring programs ! Just out in @NatureEcoEvo nature.com/articles/s41559-0…

Happy 2024! Excited to start the new year with 3 paper revisions, an internship in statistics with @kantonsg, and stable avalanche conditions 🏔️

Excited to share a preprint for my 1st PhD chapter with @rangelimits @NIChardon Kavya Pradhan & Janneke Hille Ris Lambers. We test for demographic lags and microclimatic buffering as drivers of apparent range stasis under climate change.
Lagged climate-driven range shifts at species' leading, but not trailing, range edges revealed by multispecies seed addition experiment biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #biorxiv_ecology

I just casually added 3500 unique locations to our @SoilTemp_proj worldmap. Much more to come! Want to work with this data? Still a few days left to apply for our postdoc (or pre-doc) SoilTemp database-position! --> uantwerpen.be/nl/jobs/vacatu…

A new reason to work out in the morning: it builds confidence to overcome obstacles. On days when people exercise before work, they’re more engaged and less exhausted. They see tasks as challenges to conquer rather than threats to avoid. Early wins boost energy and efficacy.

It was awesome to see one of my mentors in action! I’m proud to learn from you @cour10eygrace

Curious how microhabitat might influence species range shifts? Find out at my talk today at #ESA2023 at 3:30pm in E143!

Finally an R package to help us process all of our messy microclimate data! Congratulations to Matej and colleagues on this excellent work.

Hey, you there at #ESA2023! The USA ranked only 11th in our country ranking for microclimate time series submissions to the @SoilTemp_proj database, as you can see in the post... After Greenland! You have till Oct 20th to get your country up in the list! the3dlab.org/2023/07/09/a-ca…

The absolute biggest congratulations to my little sister, she blew her defense out of the park! I couldn’t be more proud of her endurance and hard work as a genome scientist, and the world better watch out for this new doc on the block.

A few weeks ago I defended my PhD thesis and I can't express how fulfilling the last 5 years have been in the @JShendure & @lea_starita labs. I feel like I hit the jackpot with my incredible advisors, labmates, & the @uwgenome department. Thanks to all who celebrated with me!

SoilTemp ultimate call for microclimate data! Don't miss out! Temperature, soil moisture, relative humidity... Soil and air... Observational and experimental... All is welcome!
1/n PLEASE SHARE: we are launching an ultimate call for microclimate data time series (and associated vegetation data) for inclusion in our growing @SoilTemp_proj database from all over the world!

Thrilled to be working with such brilliant early career scientists in our @CIEEICEE working group! Our main goal: using novel predictors to improve predictions of species responses to global change.
Unwinding by the fire after a day of talking about data. Appropriate to let the thoughts twist and turn in our mind like the flames. @CIEEICEE

I had a great time talking alpine plants and a little bit of everything with Matt for one of my favorite podcasts!
Ep 417 is here & its about alpine plants & env change 🔎🌱🗻 Change is something all organisms must deal with throughout their life. This is especially true for long-lived plants. Learn why @MeganDemarche investigates how alpine plants may or may not adapt indefenseofplants.com/podcas…

Just as beautiful as the cherry blossoms are the scores of people who gather underneath and marvel at the yearly wonder, turning themselves into fascinated botanists for a moment.
