On Thu, May 15 @ 11am ET, join us for a virtual science seminar with @colorado.edu's @lauradee.bsky.social: Causal Inference for Ecology and Conservation. Free + open to all. #ecology #conservation Register: www.eventbrite.com/e/causal-inf...

Fun time writing for @theconversation.com ! Please share! Controlled burns reduce wildfire risk, but they require trained staff and funding βˆ’ this could be a rough year theconversation.com/controlled-b...

Hi! πŸ‘‹ We are scientists studying Earth & environmental systems at CU Boulder. Our name = cold/high places, but these days we work from tropics to poles, incl. the world ocean. Follow us for 🧊 Cold regions βŒ› Past climate πŸ”οΈ Earth surface processes πŸ’¨ Atmospheric gases 🌱 Ecological change & lots more!

πŸ“£We're recruiting! πŸ“£ Katie Suding and I are looking for a postdoc interested in modelling grassland fire and fuels to contribute to an ongoing project on evaluating how grassland management and variation in fuels can impact wildfire risk around Boulder, CO. See the link below for more information.

Thanks to @natureecoevo.bsky.social & the reviewers for the great process and highlighting this work in a News & Views: Effects of extreme events on nature’s benefits to people www.nature.com/articles/s41...

causal understanding of landscapes + remote sensing πŸ›°οΈ? Yes, we can! We discuss important hurdles - and provide solutions! - when using remote sensing to study causality in landscapes (free download until Dec 25) @lauradee.bsky.social, @benpoulter.bsky.social, P.
