Today I began my field surveys at @papahanakuaola identifying invasive species! #invasiveplants #plants #conservationwork

[Emily Thyroff @emthyroff]

Hawai'i is home to only one native land mammal, the ‘ōpe‘ape‘a (Hawaiian hoary bat)! @NREM_UH graduate student @Hi_ForTheBats shared how protected grasslands and forests can help endangered bat populations. #NREMseminar

@kupa_aina presented her @NREM_UH Master's capstone on the biocultural mgmt plan she made for 'Ohikilolo and Kea'au. It is crucial to ensure that management plants are tied to culture and stewardship practices! #NREMseminar https://t.co/VcNk7av1pd

Take a break from #WFH tomorrow & learn about the #environmental work that the @NREM_UH grad students have been conducting. Attached is a poster with topics and the schedule. Zoom link: https://t.co/LCaBMiGmWw

[Ella @ellaenvironment]

Take a break from your #WFH schedule and tune in next Wednesday April 29th to @NREM_UHmanoa graduate students defend their capstone projects during #NREMseminar. See schedule and topics below

[anitanrem @AnitaNREM]

For her NREM capstone project, @cldemattos will work with @papahanakuaola to develop information on the range of #invasivespecies and potential impacts in order to improve management practices and help their goal of restoring native ecosystems #NREMseminar

@Vaibhavi_27 talked with us in our #NREMseminar today on how #feralcats in Hawai`i are spreading #toxoplasmosis to the highly endangered Hawaiian Monk! https://t.co/hTIgWLVzSc

[Lansing Y Perng @LYPerng]

Hawai'i is the invasive species capital of the world! @cldemattos will be characterizing the degree of invasions at @papahanakuaola and assessing the effect of invasives on native plants. @NREM_UH

Non-native #invasive plants are threatening native species and environments. @cldemattos did an excellent job presenting on this issue at Papahana Kuaola during #NREMseminar

[Chrislyn DeMattos @cldemattos]

@FlowerFloating is examining the pilina (relationship) between the #endangered `alae `ula and kalo fields. #NREMseminar https://t.co/IsdUMiD8CP

[Chrislyn DeMattos @cldemattos]

#estuaries are a crucial functioning part of ecosystems in Hawaii! @ellaenvironment talked in our #NREMseminor how she has a plan to characterize the estuaries on Maui based on previous work done by @uhmanoa grad students! https://t.co/o4Jll62mZD

[Emily Thyroff @emthyroff]

First paper from my M.S. research published back in November with @Jacobs_Purdue! @SSLandTrust

[Ryan Ueunten @RUeunten]

Ever wonder what the South Pole looks like? Dr. Dave Beilman and Derek Ford share about their drone work in #Antarctica at #NREMseminar! They are studying how #ClimateChange affects the Antarctic ecology

https://t.co/C1bQUFD59U

[Ella @ellaenvironment]

In 2020 #Antarctica logged the hottest temp on record at 18.3 C. Dr. Dave Beilman and Derek Ford shared in #NREMseminar today their evidence for a changing environment in Antarctica with lots of ecological changes in the wake of #climatechange. https://t.co/dDTqg3VBs4

[Emily Thyroff @emthyroff]

What does a research trip to Antarctica look like? Collaboration and teamwork! @geog_uhm professor and graduate student @Island_UAV share about their trip studying plants and soils as the Antarctic quickly "greens" due to climate change #NREMSeminar

[Chrislyn DeMattos @cldemattos]

#Drones aren’t just for fun! We learned in #NREMseminar they can be research tools in remote locations like #Antarctica! Dr. Bielman and @Island_UAV shared their experiences using drones for collecting data during their recent research trip to Antarctica. https://t.co/6YJ1vp1DCD

[Lansing Y Perng @LYPerng]

Tune in to this week’s #NREMseminar for #dronefootage from #Antarctica. Dr. David Beilman & @Island_UAV speak about #climatechange effects in one of the world’s coldest areas.

Today in #NREMseminar David Lewis shared his research on the highly #invasive Miconia in Maui. Adaptive management is needed to combat future #invasions in Maui. Check out more from him and the Oleson lab at https://t.co/d6NZckrrel

[Chrislyn DeMattos @cldemattos]

Did you know that paintball guns are useful #ecologicaltechnology? We learned in our #NREMseminar they are used to disperse herbicides on the #invasive miconia on Maui. This helps to prevent invasions since #miconia seeds have a wide dispersal range. https://t.co/jIcp2sEty9

#Restoration of lo‘i (Hawaiian flooded-field agriculture, see photo) could contribute to over 11,000 ha of projected waterbird habitat! This would help endangered Hawaiian waterbirds face the uncertain future of #sealevelrise. #NREMseminar @CnsrvHI
