This was a great project to work on for my MSc. Interesting blend of remote sensing and long-term field data to help better understand the complex interactions taking place in these northern ecosystems.
Curious how permafrost thaw might be impacting Arctic/Boreal productivity? We were too, so we combined >30years of ground temp data from @GSC_CGC with @NASA Landsat NDVI records along the Mackenzie Valley in the NWT ๐จ๐ฆ. @elogden led this work for her MSc thesis @LaurierBiology.
@thelonglab@shoshanahjacobs The barplot also gives you the option to add axis titles, which can help explain what the counts represent. As it stands now, the mosaic plot isn't fully understandable without an accompanying caption.

One of the most exploitative practices in Ontario higher education is known as a graduate stipend โclawback.โ
Here is how this disgusting practice works, a ๐งต.

A huge congratulations to Emily Ogden @elogden for her very successful MSc defense today!! A big thanks to external examiner Ryan Danby @RKDanby, committee extraordinaire Tristan Long @thelonglab and Homa Kheyrollah Pour @HomaKrp and chair @derek_gray1 ๐ฒโ๏ธ @LaurierBiology
Way to go @elogden ! Emily had to completely pivot her project due to #COVID but immersed herself in important work linking changes in forest productivity with permafrost thaw with some pretty exciting results. #ProudSupervisor
After a short delay our field shipment arrived! Do you think we have enough gear for 2 weeks of sampling in the Sahtu? @RAlfaroSanchez@elogden@kristenebill
