I’m not a part of their system.

It is at least +1 household.

EES Students,

We'd love to get your feedback.

Take a survey on three upper-year Earth Science ERTH/GEOG 3302 – Quaternary Sedimentary Environments, ERTH 4350/5350 – Tectonics and ERTH 4153 – Petroleum Geology & Energy Systems and help inform and improve course offerings and scheduling.

I suppose technically Whammageddon starts December 1st so … mulligan?

Walked through Public Gardens to see the lights they’ve put up for the holidays. Immediately Whamageddoned. Not. Even. December.

(I am shocked there is not more Bluenoser or #HaliSky outrage 😉).

The New York Times spelling be rejecting “donair” as a word despite it is obviously being a word.

Unacceptable.

I have been near clipped at that intersection half a dozen times. Once a pickup made a right off Allen (west) onto Harvard (north) then decided to back up into the direction they came from and change direction. Almost backed over me in the crosswalk as I was on my way to kid pickup.

Hey! I know that guy!

Real helpful buddy. Real helpful, guy.

If anyone is at #HALCON this weekend, stop by the @writersfedofns.bsky.social table and grab their zine. I have a fun little story in it. I believe it will also be made freely available on their website for a limited time.

A movie you’ve seen more than 7 times with a GIF

Well this is wild. #BlueJays.

Does this count as #gischat? I did find them on a Wednesday…

Small painted pumpkins. The left pumpkin is orange and has I ❤️ GIS painted on it. The right pumpkin is painted blue and green to resemble a globe.

Appeared outside my door last night post class. These students get me.

Bring on the rutabaga (Swedish turnip).

Happy to share that the third paper from my PhD is now published! We estimated remote sensing-derived forest structural and functional integrity on Vancouver Island and examined the influence of anthropogenic pressure on these metrics. Open access here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

There’s something that just seems appropriate about a team with the most come from behind victories in the season, falling behind 2-0 in the series, coming back and pushing to game 7, falling behind in game 7 and then getting the late lead. Fun, wild game.

Dalhousie Board and CUPE reach tentative agreement, averting strike action

Whelp … Dal is announcing a tentative agreement: www.dal.ca/dept/hr/labo...

Well that was some disappointing sportsball.

Our department at UBC is hiring for a professor of forest ecophysiology, including "tree ecophysiology; plant abiotic or biotic stress physiology; forest mortality and climate change responses; forest carbon balance; tree water relations; or nutrient use." Learn more at: tinyurl.com/5da56f5c

Nova Scotia universities required to justify each program for continued funding as international student enrollment drops N.S. academia is facing a potential shakeup as the provincial government demands universities review and justify each of their programs.

Sigh. www.saltwire.com/nova-scotia/....

“We don’t have endless pockets.”

Maybe not, but you do appear to be contributing to past provincial surpluses by flatlining transfers or citing “increases” well under inflation. Eroding investment has led to the present crisis, and poor labour relations.

Boo! Murphy’s law and all. I’m still hanging out but the coffee is gone.

Offer’s open post one o’clock too 😉. I’m sure there will be more coffee.

Come hang out for a few minutes. I have windows. Pot of coffee is being brewed in five … 😉

Right now it feels like the bullpen had too much rest … my nail beds are not enjoying the 7th …

Starting out with geographic data in Python? 🌍🐍

Chapter 1 of Geocomputation with Python introduces vector & raster models + core tools (geopandas, shapely, rasterio).
