Some New Yorkers count steps others count trees! 🌳

Volunteers are using ArcGIS Field Maps to help NYC Parks map over 800,000 street trees revealing how the urban canopy changes and where more shade is needed. This map shows street tree size from the 2015 count.

<Becoming an Interdisciplinary Urban Ecologist>
As I approach my final year as a PhD candidate in Ecology & Evolution at Rutgers University–New Brunswick, I’ve been reflecting on the experiences, people, places, and questions that have shaped the way I think as a researcher.

[Evan Hogyeum Joo @evanhjoo]

I hope these reflections create space for conversation, collaboration, and connection with others interested in ecology, cities, sustainability, and the relationships between people and nature. Feel free to message me or leave comments to let me know your thoughts! 🌱

Beach season is also piping plover season 🐦 These tiny endangered shorebirds nest and raise their chicks on beaches each summer. Help us share the shore as beaches open tomorrow: respect fencing and nesting areas, keep beaches clean, and admire wildlife from a distance.

Little Bird in the Big City.

American Woodcocks face a lot of dangers when they visit New York— but they get by with a little help from the locals. Learn more in our episode: https://t.co/zFZCpN0GWv
And donate to @wildbirdfund who helps them survive!

October 1st is Raccoon Appreciation Day! New York’s Raccoons are some of our best wildlife ambassadors. Help keep them wild by properly disposing of trash and never feeding them!

10 years ago, I attended @ecologicalsociety conference for the first time as an undergraduate student when I was at @stonybrooku and gave a poster presentation in Baltimore.

[Evan Hogyeum Joo @evanhjoo]

10 years later, in the same city, I gave a presentation on my dissertation work as a finishing PhD candidate in Ecology at the same conference. I feel so lucky to be surrounded with wonderful people who helped me to be who I am throughout the journey, and I’m excited grow more!

Happy Earth Day to Central Park’s coyotes. I took this photo of the two sharing dinner a couple months ago. In a park full of Shakespearean and other literary references, Jackie and I have nicknamed them Romeo and Juliet.
