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 🌱

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!
