Strong representation at #icais2019 #womeninscience #womeninSTEM thanks for the inspirational lectures!

Pictured here are four of the seven plenary speakers for the International Conference on Aquatic Invasive Species #icais2019, from right to left: Julie Lockwood, Alison Dunn, Shelley Arnott, and yours truly. #WomenInSTEM #WomeninScience

[Dr. Jennifer Provencher @jenni_pro]

Why does the Arctic have more plastic than most places on Earth? https://t.co/4FhxmMRKnB via @NatGeoScience

[Dr. Rebecca Rooney @girls_can]

Propagule pressure vs colonization pressure not a clear distinction in the lit, where many lump colonization pressure in as part of the “tapestry” of propagule pressure. But Lockwood winning people over, including @EcoInvasions! #icais2019

[Hess Jeff @ErinKGrey]

Julie Lockwood giving an inspiring plenary urging hypothesis-driven vector research to better understand and predict invasions. #ICAIS2019

[Kayla @_Kayla_Grey]

Anthropogenic disturbance is creating an oasis for invasive species we are actively selecting for tolerance @DrEmmaLJohnston #ICAIS2019 day 3

[Arctic Council @ArcticCouncil]

.@AMAP_Arctic's Arctic #ClimateChange Update 2019:

If global warming is stabilized at 1.5°C, the probability of an ice-free summer in the high #Arctic occurring in any given year would be roughly 2%.

At 2°C, the probability would rise to 19–34%.

The second keynote presentation of the day at #ICAIS2019 will be Shelley Arnott from Queen's University

Discussing "Multiple Environmental Stressors Shape Community Response to Non-native Species"

[Kayla @_Kayla_Grey]

Translational Ecology- I love the idea, integration of academics and policymakers is always a challenge. Let's talk to each other & learn to talk the same language. What we need from each group and how to work together to manage #invasivespecies #icais2019

[Kayla @_Kayla_Grey]

DFO regulations are in place for management of AIS but standardization of processes based on science is required to help advise and mitigate risk of introduction #icais2019 @DFO_Central @DFO_Science how to spread limited funds & resources to protect the Arctic?

[Prof Emma L Johnston AO FAA FTSE @DrEmmaLJohnston]

Simberloff: we know that early detection & rapid response (EDRR) is key to managing & preventing successful biological invasions. With insufficient professional resources one approach to EDRR is to create networks of educated citizenry. #CitizenScience #icais2019 #bioinvasion

[Kayla @_Kayla_Grey]

Early detection and rapid response is only part of the solution. Citizen science and informing the public are key to successfully restrictions of invasives #ICAIS2019 day 2 keynote by Daniel Simberloff. Looking forward to a full day of talks

[Kayla @_Kayla_Grey]

Distribution networks allows prediction of spread of an AIS and other spatial characteristics of aquatic species in trade. @FarrahChan #ICAIS2019 day 1

[Kayla @_Kayla_Grey]

changing behaviour around biosecurity with stakeholders and policy makers to illicit change and prevent of invasive species & disease outbreaks. Vector managment, secondary spread & biosecurity policy. Dr. Alison Dunn at #ICAIS2019

[Kayla @_Kayla_Grey]

Conversations between enforcement agencies (Conservation & Boarder) makes the most effective AIS boat inspection operations in BC #icais2019 . Let's talk to each other! Bring science, policy and enforcement together 🤝

[Kayla @_Kayla_Grey]

Modern invasions are a form of global change, transportation networks are a driver #ICAIS2019 @EcoInvasions

[Kayla @_Kayla_Grey]

#ICAIS2019 looking forward to the speakers this week!

[Dr. Jackie Dawson @jackie_dawson]

Renewed funding for @ArcticNet includes a 'North by North' program that supports research in the north, for the north, and BY THE NORTH. #BetterTogether #ArcticLeadership Thank you @NCE_RCE @ScienceMin
