Successful day on Capitol Hill with @ESA_org and fellow graduate students discussing the importance of funding @NSF and scientific research! Great conversations with the offices of @SenatorBaldwin and @RonJohnsonWI about NSF’s importance to Wisconsin!

[Ecological Society @ESA_org]

ESA is pleased to announce the Katherine S. McCarter Graduate Student Policy Award 2024 cohort!🎉

Recipients will head to Washington DC next month to discuss federal investments in biological & ecological science with members of Congress

In case anyone missed the latest data point, like I did. Just incredible.

[Andrew Rassweiler @a_rassweiler]

I am recruiting Ph.D. students to join my lab at FSU in 2024. We use quantitative methods, modeling and field work to study spatial ecology of nearshore systems. A particularly good match for students who enjoy playing with high tech toys like autonomous boats and computer vision

[Emily Nocito, PhD @em_ily_nocito]

really interesting paper from @PLOSBiology about the costs (time, opportunities, and more) of being a non-native English speaker in academia: https://t.co/MIld8igolR

[Sarah Lester, PhD @SarahELester]

Check out this paper where we synthesize and harmonize the large collection of MPA design guidelines in the scientific literature. Awesome work leading this effort @echelle_burns!

[Rasster Lab @RassterLab]

Congratulations to Dr. Scott Miller on successfully defending his PhD! Scott gave a great presentation on phase shifts in coral reef ecosystems. Excellent work, Scott!

Excited to share this paper, led by @ThinkDeepReef, where we explore the broad diversity of fishery restrictions used in #MarineProtectedAreas around the world to help balance conservation and local resource use goals ⬇️

[Asta Audzi @AstaAudzi]

I can't believe I received so few inquiries about this PhD position! Come to Tasmania and work with me and amazing @SizeEcology team. Work with global fish datasets, size based models and help find new ways to use citizen science data for conservation. https://t.co/c0jW1WwtCG

Environmental (In)Justice in the Anthropocene Ocean

This new paper examines how pollution, plastics, climate change, environmental and fisheries declines converge, accumulate & impact coastal populations around the world's oceans. #marsocsci #bluejustice

So glad to have joined the lab at the same time as you @elizabetsy_jane! Congratulations on all you have accomplished so far! 🦪🏡

[Rasster Lab @RassterLab]

Welcome Dr.@elizabetsy_jane to the @Rassterlab! Betsy is a post-doc with the Apalachicola Bay System Initiative at @FSUMarineLab. She will be conducting interdisciplinary social-ecological research, focusing on fisher perceptions of #ecosystemservices in Ap Bay (1/3)

Excited to share that I joined the @RassterLab at FSU as a PhD student this fall! Advised by @SarahELester 🐠

[Rasster Lab @RassterLab]

Hey y’all, after some time away, the Rasster lab is back on Twitter! We have some exciting changes to faces and roles that we’ll be sharing throughout the week. First up is the newest PhD student to join the lab, @Laurel_Field! (1/4)

[Laurel Field @Laurel_Field]

Defended my Master's research today and passed! I'm excited to celebrate by traveling to South Africa this week to visit my collaborators (@WILDOCEANSSA), explore a few of my field sites (in person, finally!), and connect with marine managers and conservationists! 🇿🇦
