A little late posting, but I officially graduated! So excited to be #PhDone and to have the opportunity to continue working in the #Arctic as a Research Associate @MichiganStateFW. Follow along for all things #boats, #wildlife, #rstats, and #bigdata!

Excited to have had the opportunity to talk with @CamilleLin67 at @JournalPolar about a new paper just out in @ClimaticChange_! We talked about patterns of #vesseltraffic in #seaice in the Pacific #arctic and possible impacts on #marinemammals.

@KellyKapsar et ses collègues de l'Univeristy of Alaska Anchorage et de la Michigan State University ont constaté une augmentation de l'activité maritime autour du détroit de Béring depuis le début de leurs observations en 2015. #Arctique #maritime @uaanchorage @UMich

"Projections have been about theoretical ships - noting certain vessels can travel through up to 2 meters of ice. But that’s like saying a car can drive up to 200 mph – just because it can doesn’t mean it will.” @KellyKapsar in @ClimaticChange https://t.co/znSu90qP5M

THE FIRST BABY HAS HATCHED! Let us welcome the newest Spartan Stadium falcon, Swooper. Swooper was born 4/30/23! Keep checking the live cam for updates on Swooper and the other chicks 🐣

@seriouswildlife Awesome! Glad it worked out 🙌

[Kelly Kapsar @KellyKapsar]

@seriouswildlife Heck yes! You could also write a function and lapply it to a list of the tables.

#spookyseason is beginning and it’s time for two very important reminders, courtesy of @JoAnn_Stores:
1) Ears are cartilage, NOT BONE
2) Invertebrates (e.g., octopus) DO NOT HAVE BONES

Thank you for coming to my #tedtalk

Aiyanna’s expression says it all. Young children have spoken and #PIFLM51 Leaders have heard their call: A climate resilient future means investing in #earlychildhood now.

15 Pacific #PRC4ECD countries continue to make progress on #ECD with @UNICEFPacific as Secretariat.

Space is lovely, dark and deep. You're looking at the deepest infrared image of the universe ever taken—the first full-color image from @NASAWebb.

Looking for someone? One of the falcon chicks has taken a brave first step out of the box! Tune into the livestream or grab your binoculars and head over to lot 79 behind #SpartanStadium to watch the chicks test out their new feathers 🪶🪶

Going back through some #rstats code I wrote a few months ago and playing the endlessly entertaining game of "Does this piece of code actually do anything or did I just keep it in my script because I'm scared to delete code because I might need it someday?"

And a big shoutout to my Twitterless husband for following through on a 3 year old promise to buy me an awesome sword for graduation!

Three baby peregrines hatched as of Monday! Parents were trading off feeding duties. @MSUFWClub @MichiganStateFW

[MSU FW Club @MSUFWClub]

Not to be biased, but I feel like this might be the cutest Peregrine Falcon baby ever. I guess we should ask Sparty for his opinion 💚🤍 @TheRealSparty #msu #GoGreen

[Kelly Kapsar @KellyKapsar]

@SaraGoeking Congratulations to you too! 🎉🎉
