A snowy path with bike handle bars in the foreground

#hfxws Dartmouth Commons passable on foot and by bike this beautiful AM, but Wise Rd from Thistle to the bridge and beyond is impassable.

Dartmouth commons looking good for biking and walking #hfxws

Dot watching tonight! Amazing achievement #dotwatch

Smoked the competition over the bridge this arvo, windy and rainy as ever, be careful folks #hfxws #10/10

“Here, using three global glacier models, we project a sharp rise in the number of glaciers disappearing worldwide, peaking between 2041 and 2055 with up to ~4,000 glaciers vanishing annually.”

This infographic describes the main results from a survey of members of 14 scientific societies. There is a pie chart showing that both academic (58%) and non-academic (42%) responded to the survey. It lists statistics: 85% of respondents reported uncertainty about the future; 71% reported federal training programs were "very" or "extremely important"; 83% reported negative impacts or irreparable harm on their field of science. There is a word cloud summarizing open-ended responses with the largest words "student research fund federal grant". Eight major themes in the responses are listed: disruption of research with societal important; concerns of closure of the USGS Bird Banding Lab; Early Career Bottleneck; Restricted Freedoms including travel and speech; Decline in Government Efficiency and Expertise; Concerns about Biased/Removed Data and Data Gaps; Concerns about the Ability to Meet Legal Mandates; and From Positive Impact to Irreparable Harm. There are icons for each participating society and a QR code for website and data availability.

Today 14 scientific societies in #ecology #evolution and #marineScience are publishing the results of a survey that finds negative impacts of federal policies on food security, flood mitigation, infectious disease preparedness, and wildlife conservation: 🧪👩‍🔬 www.firsthandaccounts.org/impacts/2025...

Hey Eryn, can you add me, I'm a post doc evolutionary biologist, my orchid ID is 0000-0002-9252-4404. I work mostly using genomics to study fish for conservation and management.

A Comparison of Colorful Hamlets From the Caribbean Challenges Ideas About How Species Arise Scientists have been thinking about how new species evolve since Darwin wrote On The Origin of Species in 1859. The results presented here call into question some of the most common explanations of ho...

Cool work with Hamlets, in part illustrating that defining species is much more than just using genetic distance. I heard Rick Mayden speak to this at JMIH last month in St. Paul in a mere 15 minutes.🧪🌍🌿 #TeamFish

👋I'll be at @eseb2025.bsky.social #eseb2025 hosting Session #30 on Aug 21 (9-12) with Tony Kess and this awesome lineup of scientists giving us insights into how species adapt in response to a changing climate, supported by @biologists.bsky.social and @thefsbi.bsky.social #climatechange #evolution

Oops

We are currently seeking an ambitious, motivated, and hard-working scientist to join my lab (wrobel-lab.org) at the Department of Biochemistry of the University of Oxford as a Postdoctoral Research Associate. If interested, please go here directly: tinyurl.com/postdoc-wrob... or read more below.

48 Scientific Societies Representing Almost 100,000 Scientists Ask Congress to Protect the Future of Science 48 scientific societies representing almost 100,000 scientists signed on to a letter asking Congress to protect the future of science

Today, a broad coalition of scientific professional societies who represent over 92,000 scientists are speaking out against the politicization and demonization of Federally funded science and government scientist jobs.

It was an honor to help the Union of Concerned Scientists with this! 🧪🌎

Crowds are massive in Silver Spring, Maryland…the home of NOAA. People chanting, “Save NOAA Now!” and “We will not weather the storm.” Make your voices heard and keep it up. #NOAA #NWS Severe Weather is on its Way. And so is hurricane season. 🌀 🧪
