My NSF PRFB on the genetics of female polymorphism in hummingbirds was terminated yesterday.
I don't have much to say, I'm just sad. We've discovered so much, and could have gone so much further.
If anyone else is in the same boat, esp postdocs, please reach out, it would be good to connect.
I got an email yesterday afternoon that my NSF SPRF Postdoctoral Fellowship was terminated. My grant focused on testing interventions to address online misinformation and I was 8 months into a two year appointment.
🚨 #NOAA is essential for weather forecasting, climate research, and public safety.
AGU stands with the scientific community in urging Congress to protect and strengthen NOAA, not dismantle it.
Our economy, environment, and safety depend on it.
Synthesis of ecosystem changes over successional time. The three columns (A, B, C) correspond to the three experimental designs described in Methods: Experimental design, which correspond to three semi-discrete developmental phases that collectively span 200 years of succession. Column A shows trends inferred through the paired chronosequences (particularly the Burn Plots) over the first century of stand development. Column B corresponds to FASET, the paired comparison of background reference vs. experimentally accelerated succession Illustration by Jennifer Kalejs. footprints, over a 2-decade period from stand age ~90-100. Column C highlights the three old reference forests, with ages ranging from 130 years for the two pine-dominated stands to approximately 200 years in the uneven-aged hemlock-northern hardwoods stand. See Discussion: Synthesis of ecosystem changes over succession for accompanying narrative.

Check out @bprops.bsky.social's interview with @uwmadscience.bsky.social about her recent paper in Ecology: dx.doi.org/10.1002/ecy..... Great job Brooke! (Part 1/2 here, see comment for part 2)
So nice to meet you! Hopefully see you again next year!
Had a wonderful time at AGU 2024. Great science and great conversations. Already looking forward to next year!
