The Marine Sustainability Ecology Lab at Univ of Washington in Bothell, interested in novel approaches to balancing human and ecological needs in the oceans
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE! ⚠️ On Wed. Oct. 4th, at 11:20am PDT there will be a national alert test from the Emergency Alert System. This means that every cell phone in the US will have a loud alert, like an Amber Alert. This may be a safety concern for survivors with "secret" phones.
@LuisHuckstadt You are SO RIGHT. The system is SO DEEPLY broken, and to me you are proof of that. It should never have taken that long. (But still so stoked for you to finally be able to settle - and in a beautiful place!)
@LuisHuckstadt So cool @LuisHuckstadt!!!! I definitely remember how that felt except for me it wasn't so much diving that was affected as 'human-ing'. (PS the effects still linger 4 yrs later... 🤣)
Grant writing is fun but hard. This yr’s #rannis was super challenging w/ my 8 mo old teething daughter on the arm. Only w/ family support & brilliant collaborators @DrLucyHawkes@fipsamarra@maxwell_lab I managed (just!) to finish. I’m thankful but so exhausted tday #WomenInSTEM
I study evolutionary biology of marine invertebrates and climate change adaptation. First generation. I get to be in the water a lot for work and I love it! On vacation I like to visit my family in French Guyana and enjoy local birds! #BlackInNature#BlackBirdersWeek#PostABird
I hope y'all don't mind me posting some #BlackBirdersWeek pics.
Nature is my favorite place to be, & I've been fortunate enough use my PhD to travel & be #BlackInNature across the world. Photography lets me capture a piece of Nature to share with others who can't travel with me
My name is Winter. I have a PhD in evolutionary biology & have spent the last decade studying diversity in nature. One lesson learned? Science is better when perspectives are diverse. We need YOU. Your voice matters. #BlackInSTEM#LatinoInSTEM#BlackBirdersWeek#DiversityMatters
Hi, I’m Coretta and I am a marine biologist!
I study coral reef ecology using photomosaics and am starting a new project on herbivorous reef fishes.
Keep our oceans clean and protect marine life! #BlackInNature#BlackAFinSTEM
Legit, I’ve been a hijabi birder for over 20 years and this is the first time I’ve met a Black hijabi birder. I am so grateful to #BlackBirdersWeek for elevating Black voices and profiles. I just want to go birding with these amazing people. Right. Now.
I’m a wildlife biologist, primarily conducting research on pinniped and cetacean species in the California Current Ecosystem. Love working and playing in the great outdoors. #BlackInNature#BlackAFinSTEM
I'm late to this party, but it is 🔥! A kid from L.A. followed his #BlackInNature and puppy dreams to being a @uwtacoma Prof in urban eco-evo. What's better: as a father, I get to share my love of nature with the little loves of my life. @BlackAFinSTEM#BlackAFinSTEM
This is truly a Unique #EarthDay because more than ever we have given Nature a pause, a rest, and we have cause (and time!) to pay more attention to the amazing biodiversity around us. Let's make a pact to lessen our impact on Nature when life returns to normal again.
On this Unique #EarthDay several things give me HOPE for Nature (1/n): The amazing family of @NatGeoExplorers - tackling the worlds biggest problems with passion and drive from different disciplines, countries & cultures. THIS is what the future looks like. I love these people.
On this Unique #EarthDay several things give me HOPE for Nature (3/n): Finding new ways to solve problems with cracking teams of scientists - here is #teamarctictern in Iceland solving how to recapture arctic terns that return after wintering in Antarctica!
On this Unique #EarthDay several things give me HOPE for Nature (6/n): The amazing early career scientists we work with - this is the wider Hawkes-Witt lab group (missing @nicoleparr12 and we borrowed @DrHannahJW) - these people have the skills and passion to change the world.
On this Unique #EarthDay several things give me HOPE for Nature (8/n): We've also worked out that the areas that need protecting move - and have plans for how to move protection with them (work by @maxwell_lab ): https://t.co/Yzt8hLZfOc
