Join Taryn on a tour of CLEAR! Why are our lab coats pink (spoiler: it's for scientific)? What senses do we use to identify plastics (hint: more than our eyes!)? What kind of people work at CLEAR (awesome people, obv)!

Had so much fun today representing @munlgeog.bsky.social at the virtual ACAG conference! I discussed some preliminary results from a project with @carissabrown.bsky.social, where we’ve found unusual post-fire black spruce recruitment patterns at the south coast of Labrador 🌱

ACAG*’s 2024 conference has kicked off, and the first #NorthernEDGELab @munlgeog.bsky.social talk was from MSc candidate Pierrette James-Bourque. Great science, baby trees, and memes - what else could one ask for?

Hi everyone! To introduce myself on BlueSky after moving over from the bad place: my name is Graydon (he/him), I’m a grad student currently in Newfoundland, and I’m interested in plant ecology, species’ distributions, and range limits.

I’d love to connect with other #ecoevo folks on here!

Wow, things are really picking up over here! Guess we’d better dust off our account and start to #ThinkOutside under this sunny BlueSky (okay, we are in Newfoundland in November, so outlook for actual blue sky is … uncertain). Stay tuned for some content from the last few months!

We love to #ThinkOutside at MUNL Geography! @carissabrown.bsky.social took #GEOG3140 Biogeography students out to a good ol’Newfoundland boreal bog to talk about adaptations and species-environment matching. Nothing makes those undergrad memories like a boot full of bog.
