Super excited about this!

We're recruiting a PhD student to start this fall in our lab! The student will study biodiversity as a driver of ecosystem recovery after extreme events in Kruger National Park. We encourage peoples from underrepresented groups in science to apply. kevinwilcox.weebly.com/lab-o…

Master's candidate Ashley Dupuis successfully defended her thesis today, woohoo!!! Wyoming big sagebrush tolerate multi-year drought relatively well, until drought magnitude becomes very extreme. #DroughtOnTheRange

Many grasslands across the front range got some much needed snow this weekend to break a winter #DroughtOnTheRange. Might just be the most important precipitation event of 2021! #RanchingUnderDrought. Many thanks to @PhenoCam and for these pics.

I found my reading material for this week!

Our new paper - A practical guide to selecting models for exploration, inference, and prediction in ecology - is now online @ESAEcology esajournals.onlinelibrary.wi…. Nothing new here per se. We found it useful to put a bunch of info in one place. Hopefully others find it useful, too.

Working around the clock to discover effects of global change drivers on phylogenetic and functional trait diversity. Literally, around the clock!

Great #datasynthesis working week with the sCoRRE working group! Time zones were no barrier for this amazing team!

Can't wait to see those deep emerald post-burn hills in the spring!

Nice story that shows how our simple solutions (i.e., planting trees to offset carbon emissions) aren't always so simple. And it's less than 7 minutes! Give it a watch.

Very nice article all about one of the best predictors of how ecosystems will respond to future changes in climate.

Check it out! A 36-yr record of productivity and a thorough analysis of the determinants of its spatiotemporal variability.
Sensitivity of productivity to precipitation amount and pattern varies by topographic position in a semiarid grassland esajournals.onlinelibrary.wi…

Sarah is cruising through soil samples to study effects of drought and grazing intensity! She's looking at the enzymes that microbes pump into the soil to break down plant matter and animal waste. We'll let you know what we learn!

Check it out: Conservative grazing regimes sustain palatability of dominant grass species even under an extreme multi-year drought.

Savannas are resilient and recover just 1 year post-drought, even though they recover at first with yucky forbs - with @wilcoxkr @SallyKoerner and @Saeonews Dave Thompson

Very nice talk by @mdtfrost at #ESA2020 showing that different brome species can have very different impacts on native mixed grass plant communities. I wonder why!

Making a light blink is oddly satisfying when you’re working with base components. Next step: @arduino buriable soil moisture sensors!

Unexpected. Tracking global change responses in plants through experiments- but in control plots. @JAdamLangley @hovendenlab @wilcoxkr @drkimlapierre @MeghanAvolio @ForestIsbell @alan_knapp @SallyKoerner @cjlortie
