Last year, my team found that #beaver complexes stayed green during wildfires. 🌿

This year, we're pushing the beavs to the limits - can their fire refugia persist even thru #megafires? 🔥

Excited to present our preliminary data at the @geosociety #GSA2021 conference next week!

International academics, K-12 teachers, and informal educators are now eligible for access to USGS 3D Elevation Program (#3DEP) #lidar data via OpenTopography. More details about the new application-based program are here: https://t.co/6bghD5jCdY 📷= 3DEP point cloud coverage

An Earth Day promotion that's not for, like, a new bamboo straw:

This Thursday, I'll be moderating a panel for @naturalareas on how beavers impact wildfire, starring @EmilyFairfax @fluvialwheaton @MethowBeaver & @lenyaqd. I promise you'll learn a lot!

For more evidence of how beavers "define (Voyageurs') landscape," as @TheBeaverDoctor puts it, I refer you to the Twitter thread which spawned this article (is it gauche to link to your own tweets? Too bad):

One activity I will never get tired of: admiring beaver-created features in Google Earth.

Do I click the link? I think I click the link. #SabbathKeepingBeavers

Archie Ruggles-Brise, owner of the estate, said he was shown research on beavers in Devon, which concluded they had reduced the risk of flash floods, and thought 'Well go on then, let's give it a go.'"

Tired: wolves are transforming Yellowstone.
Wired: invasive lake trout are transforming Yellowstone.

Astounding new study that vividly demonstrates Muir's "everything is hitched" axiom: From copepods to trumpeter swans, lake trout have affected it all.

Scientists have long overlooked beavers in the intertidal zone. Now they’re counting on the freshwater rodents to restore Washington’s coastal ecosystems.

Can't tell you how many times I've seen some variation on "destructive hordes of beavers clear-cutting forests and ruining habitat."

Much love to this guy who paired his entire 2018 reading list with Simpsons screenshots.

"(Goldfarb) writes with textbook fidelity and storybook clarity... Now, when I stop beside the beaver pond, I get a sense that I am part of something bigger than myself."

Thanks to @earthislandjrnl for their lovely review of #EagerBeaverBook!

Beaver dams don't just create reservoirs — they also serve as multi-species highways. Incredible camera trap work from Quonquont Farm in Massachusetts, a role model for landowner/beaver coexistence. https://t.co/PqQiWAGEf3

Brr, it’s cold outside! Perhaps you'd prefer celebrating #NewYearsEve with a warm-blooded semi-aquatic mammal?

The town of Beavertown, Pennsylvania drops *you guessed it* a stuffed beaver named Bucky. https://t.co/hbJSPONLfq
