This is my 100th BlueSky post and I haven't really introduced myself, so here goes!

I founded and run @environmentalvoter.bsky.social and focus on using behavioral science & political organizing to build power for the climate movement. So excited to follow many of you!

Why isn't the climate movement voting?
Millions of people say they care deeply about climate change ... yet they're not showing up at elections to turn their concern into political power, says environmental voting advocate Nathaniel Stinne...

Climate change is shifting where animals cross roadways. By modelling future temperature, rain, plant cover, and land use, we can identify locations used now and into the future.

What a beautiful day in the field last week at Rinker Rock Creek Ranch, kicking off a new research project with ‪@uidaho.bsky.social‬ colleagues.

I am so happy to share this new paper I co-wrote with colleagues at the USGS. It's a guide to predicting how nonmotorized recreation like hiking, skiing, mountain biking, etc. affects ungulates (hoofed mammals like deer, elk, moose, and pronghorn) to inform NEPA analyses. doi.org/10.3133/sir2...

First paper from my postdoc is out in #EcologicalMonographs w/ @ecologicalsociety.bsky.social! We looked at patterns of summer co-occurrence among 5 predators at 3 time scales to assess how competition, prey, & habitat affected predator distributions in north Idaho, USA. dx.doi.org/10.1002/ecm....
Mammalian predator co‐occurrence affected by prey and habitat more than competitor presence at multiple time scales
The behavior and abundance of sympatric predators can be affected by a complex dominance hierarchy. The strength of antagonistic interactions in predator communities is difficult to study and remains...

Thrilled to share that our #WAPredatorPreyProject paper evaluating how elk navigate risk from wolves, cougars, and humans is on its way to publication in Ecology. Co-authored with great collaborators from the University of WA, WA dept. of Fish and Wildlife, and the Spokane Tribe.

Fun to share research in a new format. I recently chatted with John Calfa & Stephen Rivera of the Wolf Connection Podcast about the #WAPredatorPreyProject on Episode 147. Give it a listen here!
