Hi Brooke! Could I be added? I'm in my final weeks of PhD and looking for a postdoc 🌿

@esa.int

Poster is up at M12 in the poster arena! 🌏🌿🇦🇹 #LPS25 @kingstonuniversity.bsky.social

Arrived in Vienna for #LPS25 conference! 🇦🇹🌎 @esa.int

A colourful poster titled "Triple threats to tropical biodiversity: predicting the impact of future climate change, disease and deforestation on vulnerable species range dynamics with RangeShiftR"; with five sub-headers with text sections including: 1) Background, 2) Aim, 3) Methods, 4) Results and 5) Discussion. There are five figures, figure 1 is a map of Madagascar, figure 2 is a conceptual diagram of the RangeShiftR modelling framework, figure 3 is a conceptual diagram of model scenario combinations, figure 4 are maps of Madagascar showing habitat suitability of the focal tree and its wilt pathogen, and figure 5 shows a lambda graph describing population growth rates over a 100-year simulation. At the bottom of the poster are references, acknowledgements and credits.

I am happy to share this poster will be displayed at the upcoming Kingston University ECE PGR Conference 2025!
I'd love your feedback, comments and questions 🌍

Postdoc call in Mechanistic Biodiversity Modelling (up to 6 ya) at my lab @unibonn.bsky.social. We focus on modelling terrestrial plant communities, island biogeography, range dynamics, eco-evolutionary feedbacks, diversity gradients, tropical forests, vascular epiphytes. Pls rt! shorturl.at/CL1ny

Thanks @gis4he.bsky.social 😊

really clear overview of range shift by Emma Underwood to get everyone on the right track for their presentation..... good work. #gisruk

@gisruk.bsky.social 🙌

Been a little while since I was last in Bristol! ✨
Happy to be talking about my latest research today at #GISRUK hosted by the University of Bristol - thanks for having me and thanks to the organisers!

Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants is a 2013 nonfiction book by Potawatomi professor Robin Wall Kimmerer, about the role of Indigenous knowledge as an alternative or complementary approach to Western mainstream scientific methodologies.

"Even a wounded world is feeding us. Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder and joy. I choose joy over despair. Not because I have my head in the sand, but because joy is what the earth gives me daily and I must return the gift."

- Robin Wall Kimmerer

We are near tipping points that will make the climate crisis worse | Context As Hurricane Milton hits the United States, leading climate scientists warn we are close to crossing crucial tipping points

Despite policy commitments, the world is not reducing unsustainable pressures on the planet. Time is running out as we approach the halfway point of the decisive decade.
