"Our results show that constructed Spartina alterniflora marshes in ultra-urban Newtown Creek support denitrification potential equivalent to rates of natural marshes in Jamaica Bay and reference marshes in other urban estuaries". https://t.co/LXuVYvUBgc.
New publication featuring Baruch's Dr. Zarnoch demonstrates the potential for restored marshes to provide services even in highly impacted, urban areas.
Congrats to the 6 Baruch student authors who contributed to our article on panther conservation in Lessons in Conservation! https://t.co/53Cibl5AVr. Great example of students contributing to the development of OER materials and writing! @Baruch_CTL@Baruch_Weissman@BaruchEnv
What are the environmental implications of storm surge barriers in #JamaicaBay? Join us Wednesday to hear the perspectives of SRIJB scientist @ChesterZarnoch, @SarahLawrence professor Bernice Rosenzweig, @GatewayNPS scientist Patti Rafferty and more.
@BaruchCollege is hosting the United Nation Development Programme's Peoples' Climate Vote Live! Join us for this incredible opportunity to participate in UN Climate Week 2022. Register at https://t.co/Z4v4pMMgOL. #ClimateWeekNYC
Students from @BaruchEnv@Baruch_Weissman and I completed our annual monitoring of invertebrates at the Sherman Creek living shoreline for @NYRP. So great for the students to document changes in biodiversity and contribute data to inform management of this special place in NYC.
While working in Greenland, @BaruchCollege marine biologist Dr. David Gruber (@luminescentlabs) revealed a species of snailfish with the highest levels of this antifreeze protein ever discovered in polar and subpolar marine creatures. https://t.co/C4gpteDGnU
View from ferry on way to @Gov_Island to join the @BillionOyster 2022 student symposium. Lots of students and trifolds on board - sure to see some incredible student projects today
Yet another IN-PERSON event for y'all to check out!
If you're in the NYC area, head over @randallsisland for birding field trips hosted by a trio of great Black birders: @o_efua, @ronniealmonte, & our own @BirdingQueens!
Go for the birds, then stay for the BBQ!
More than 5,800 Baruch students graduated at this morning's commencement ceremony at Barclay's Center. Congratulations to the Class of 2022!

Vantage point to a beautiful moment. @Baruch_Weissman graduate Hasrat Mehta receives a simbolic diploma on behalf of almost 1000 graduates. CONGRATULATIONS CLASS OF 2022!
Another great article on Jenn's (now Dr. Zhu's) new position at BOP and her path to restoring oysters in the local area. https://t.co/so4JM0miNz @GosnellLab@BaruchEnv@Baruch_Weissman
Should we really be scaring captive animals? Yes! Our new paper (https://t.co/Uj0DJVpOiX) in Restoration Ecology shows antipredator training changes prey traits and increases survival upon release, but notes we need to look at these connections more to guide management efforts.
Undergrads at @BaruchCollege, @Hunter_College, @BCCcuny, & @BklynCollege411: Apply by May 13 for a @CUNY Climate Scholars fellowship! All majors welcome. Stipends up to $8,400 for 3 months of research & 3-month internship, starting Aug. 22. https://t.co/BKQSLsMbLD #greenenergy
