I wonder if there are any other Americans in Halifax — dual citizens (like myself), ex-pats, whatever — who might want to have drinks together to process this shit. Maybe there's no processing it, I dunno, but I think maybe we're feeling the loss even more profoundly than our Canadian friends.

Hey, that’s me! Looking forward to chatting about why we need biodiversity (and more than just ‘green’) for healthier cities. (Also thank you to whoever edited this photo. I’m getting a *lot* of joy from the idea that I’m just hanging out with my binos in the middle of this courtyard!)

This week, PhD candidate Evan (@muise.bsky.social) attended a workshop on #PrimaryForest Mapping! There was lots of great discussion surrounding primary forest definitions and methods for mapping them across BC and Canada 🌳 Thanks @wwfcanada.bsky.social for hosting an excellent workshop! 🙌

From opening welcome, through a wide variety of industry presentations, to keynote speaker, Day 1 of our #COGS Industry Expo 2025 is thought provoking and idea generating 1/2

Watching Gremlins with the kiddo: “if you can’t feed them past midnight when can they start eating again?” Oh great. Now I have to abandon my whole “how do time zones work?” line of inquiry.

Reminder about our funded PhD opportunity on dual-wavelength laser scanning for estimating chlorophyll content & vegetation health. Based at @unisouthampton.bsky.social under the IGNITE NERC DLA with supervision from Jadu Dash, Jo Nield and myself. Further details: www.findaphd.com/phds/project...
