[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

Interested in metacommunity simulations or how remote imagery and modeling can be used to understand diatom biodiversity in the McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctica? See our latest paper: https://t.co/0nWBG8ew9J, with @antMARKtica and scientists from @MCM_LTER @NEON_sci

[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

@_djli Awesome, congrats Daijiang!!

[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

Another great opportunity! This makes me wish I was looking for grad programs.

[Tadeu Siqueira @TadSiqueira]

Please, RT: I have a funded PhD position available. Opportunity to develop research on topics such as: metacommunity stability; keystone communities; predictability of biodiversity responses to environmental change. https://t.co/SrBfHwtQiN #biodiversity #ecology #phd #NewZealand

[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

great opportunity!

[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

We're hiring! Feel free to message me if you have questions about the position at @NEON_sci

[Ecological Forecasting Initiative @eco4cast]

New blog post! Learn about ongoing updates to the EFI @NEON_sci Ecological Forecasting Challenge dashboard including the ability to synthesize across forecasts, provide summary metrics, and a self diagnostic platform for teams that submit to the Challenge.

Great to see this product out from the #metacommunities @USLTER synthesis working group.
@nwisnoski led the pub and many others contributed during meetings, all pre-COVID, at @ucsb_nceas and @NEON_sci

Day 3 of the @eco4cast @NEON_sci 2023 unconference, synthesizing ideas to move ecological forecasting forward, @mcdietze providing some motivation for the day!

[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

@jdtonkin Wow, congrats Jono!

[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

@_djli @lsuscience congrats @_djli !!

[Cayelan Carey @CareyLab]

Congrats @rquinnthomas & the rest of the @NEON_sci @eco4cast team for getting the NEON Forecast Challenge description paper out in @ESAFrontiers! As of today, 9560 forecasts have already been submitted to the Challenge by the ecological community: join us! https://t.co/C9GVFHRQUm

[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

This work is ongoing, but some results are here:

[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

I had a chance to talk about some collaborative work with @antMARKtica @mgooseff @colddirt @lstanish @PlanetSkyentist @snpowpow where we are using @MCM_LTER and @polargeospatial data map and understand biodiversity in microbial mats in the McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctica.

[NEON @NEON_sci]

On Ross Island, at the foot of a volcano, is McMurdo Station- the largest research outpost on the Antarctic Continent.
NEON's Eric Sokol (@Antarctic_Bio) works with @MCM_LTER to gather and produce ecological data and resources. Read more in a new blog! https://t.co/3eSPmMZ5Ki

[Daijiang Li @_djli]

Still time to apply to this position! Any ecologists with machine learning experiences are encouraged to apply.

[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

@cbahlai oh no! Hope you're all feeling better soon!

[Eric Sokol @Antarctic_Bio]

Great opportunity for folks looking for a postdoc focusing on biodiversity and remote sensing. Also, @record_lab is awesome!

[NEON @NEON_sci]

New #blog alert! Our latest blog highlights a study in @GEB_macro that explores how NEON #lidar and #hyperspectral remote sensing data could be combined to improve estimates of plant biodiversity in temperate forests. https://t.co/qvviXaTFGX #remotesensing #NEONscience
