@barbalink @anne_marie_bio I used a metal meter stick to measure depth at lynx locations. Would take 4 measures per site. Also measured hardness by dropping a pop can filled with rice from a set height above the snow and measuring the depth it sunk. We called it our highly scientific densiometer. haha

For @hakaimagazine, I wrote about beach dogs, which are both shockingly harmful to coastal ecosystems *and* a wildly contentious political issue. Note: I am not w/out sin when it comes to letting my little killer roam free!

Let the angry emails commence.

A simple, non-invasive innovation could offer "a huge advantage" for scientists studying nocturnal animals. #UAlberta #FieldResearch #biology #ecology

Check out our new paper in @Ecology_Letters that looks at how balancing food acquisition and predation risk can drive demographic changes in population cycles...(Thread) @MJLPeers @akmenzies @ekstudd @ShoWhitecrane @lauramccaw @Phil_D_Walker @boutinlab https://t.co/luBaBwBmqT

@wild_ecology @GM_TweeterBird You got it, the warm is when the squirrels are in the nest. It is pretty easy to separate ibutton data into in and out the nest. I used ibuttons to document nest attendance in red squirrels. Our approach to separating the two phases can be found here: https://t.co/Tz9hu8xzWQ

Different #DensityEstimation approaches can produce wildly different numbers - even when method assumptions are met

SO excited to announce my first paper out today in
@Ecol_Evol that explores how mammals avoid predation during rest. Could not be more grateful to have worked with my phenomenal co-authors @DiseaseEcology and @roxannesbeltran

New paper in @ESAEcosphere: Vertebrates took longer to initiate scavenging carnivore relative to herbivore carcasses, and carnivore carcasses persisted on the landscape for over a month longer! @YMajchrzak @akmenzies @ekstudd @ClaytonTLamb @boutinlab

@fitzpatrickpj @RyanKBrook @bparlee @CalebHasler @gwynmac @akmenzies are both working on (diff) moose projects in the boreal and would know others...

Check out our new paper in @ESAEcology examining how food availability and long-term predation risk affect snowshoe hare's antipredator response to lynx encounter. Collaborative work with @ekstudd @MJLPeers @YMajchrzak @boutinlab @akmenzies @RDerbyshire7 @MurrayLab_Trent

[Emily Studd @ekstudd]

@wishartae @jackghendrix I can help with that axy data if that'll make thing less stressful!

[Emily Studd @ekstudd]

Check out this awesome interview/video by @akmenzies about our use of technology to study lynx.

This paper has been my favourite experience in science so far. A team effort from start (co-first author) to finish (sharing media).

A closer look at the secret lives of the Canadian Lynx! We’ll be speaking to @akmenzies, a researcher who took part in a study on just that! Listen in on #LetsGo!

[McGill University @mcgillu]

A new study by researchers from #McGill, @UAlberta and @TrentUniversity provides new insight into the behaviour of the elusive Canada Lynx and a first look at how miniaturized technology can open the door to remote wildlife monitoring.
