If you work in coral reef ecology or indicators of ecosystem function, please take a look at our latest publication in Ecosphere: "Abundance of a cryptic generalist parasite reflects degradation of an ecosystem" (Open) https://t.co/ph65aaz5B5

@jenni_tabler But most of all, I am so sorry for your loss! The loss of any colleague is awful, but from the photo, I gather your friend was in the prime of her life when death took her away. Please take care

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@jenni_tabler My institution—which is also extremely disrespectful of faculty—will at least acknowledge deaths. For what it’s worth, I think everything you are saying is a valid criticism not only of your institution, but of higher ed in general, and I think public higher ed in particular

@alicia_reigel @DaviesswPhD Do you still need one?

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@amy_nusbaum Is there an alternative? Have any states considered modifying the document format to accommodate listing birth and adopted parents? Or something else, if that’s not what’s needed? It seems like a topic we are collectively avoiding, but the impact seems to all be on adoptees?

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@DrDanHolstein @DaviesswPhD I would, but apparently newbies aren't allowed invites right away ... sorry!

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@DaviesswPhD Thanks (to everyone on this) so much for this thread! Science Twitter was SO useful, I'm desperate for something more useful than this mess. Once NPR and other news sources leave, you know it is bad. 🔵 is worth a try! Now I need to find more time to post again!

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@queenparrotfish @DaviesswPhD Thanks for the idea, I just did the same. It's worth a try.

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@mle425 I'm a lecturer w/ PhD at my institution and my salary is ~$55,000 which considering cost-of-living in my rural area is considerably better than for most any CSU. But our ASU (Arkansas) system has same waste supporting leadership and high-level admin ...

Watching ctenophores is kinda like watching a fire burn in that it just does not get boring.

@Jodie_Boisvert I was lucky. Of my six years in grad school, 18 months was in the field at a remote marine station with little reading in my discipline. I used the kindle reader on my phone a lot! But only during field season, not the rest of the year.

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@mle425 @DaviesswPhD Emily, I’ll DM you my email. Thank you!!!! -John

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@DaviesswPhD Sorry to bug you, but can you either send me an invite to BlueSky (it's asking for one as I try to sign up) or point me at a tutorial that explains what I need? Again, apologies for bugging you--I miss science twitter!

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@amy_nusbaum Me, too! Especially those who were in on of my “first-year experience” classes, but sometimes even my gen ed students

[Dr. Sinlan Poo (Sheila) 蒲歆嵐 🇹🇼🐸 @SinlanPoo]

Can’t say enough about the AMAZING artist contributing illustrations of scientist and their study species for the #WomenInHerpetology book! 📚 👩🏻‍🎨🐸👩🏼‍🎨🦎👩🏽‍🎨🐍👩🏾‍🎨🐢👩🏿‍🎨📖 AND they all did this work pro bono to help our shared goal of raising funds for student scholarships! ✨🤩💫

@amy_nusbaum Oh yeah, and with that large area of non-native mono-cultured grass along with pesticide, herbicide, and fertilizer use, the golf course is an environmental nightmare 😎

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@amy_nusbaum Mind you, the “more housing” visualization focuses on optimizing number of housing units and could have done better preserving large trees on the site with a lower heat-island effect, and if this is a low-income plan, leading to improved community social equity.

[John Artim (born at 315ppm CO2) @ReefManJohn]

@amy_nusbaum You aren’t the only one who’s fun at parties! 😉

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

Take that in. Then try wrapping your head around the fact that we’re only seeing the beginning of a destabilising planet, while remembering that GHG emissions are still rising and the companies largely causing this are making record profits.

A bit concerning, don’t you think?
