new paper, led by @nkolarik.bsky.social: monitoring outcomes of ecological restoration is challenging. Satellite imagery could help, but interpretation requires statistics that can identify breakpoints in messy time-series data. We provide a practical guide: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Conservation easements target high quality riparian and wetland ecosystems in the Western US, but don't necessarily improve them or reduce development. 🌐🧪🔬 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Conservation easements target high quality lands but do not increase their quality
Conservation programs targeted at private lands are essential for conserving biodiversity and mitigating and adapting to the effects of climate change…

Useful synthesis of confidence in knowledge and gaps about river and flood plain management:
-River restoration
-Floodplain and floodplain wetland restoration
-Leaky barriers
-Beavers
-Offline storage areas

A closer look at the extent of sea ice globally that just set a new all-time record minimum, which is due to unusually low sea ice conditions in both the #Arctic & #Antarctic right now.

Excited to have had the opportunity to work on #scicomm skills and discuss how we rely on #earthobservations to provide quantitative evidence of #conservation impacts with our community.
Great presentation by @nkolarik.bsky.social! Nick uses satellite observations to monitor changes in desert streams, including impacts of beavers and humans. This is part of @boisestate.bsky.social's Science On Tap event, where scientists talk about their research at local breweries #scicomm

Stoked to have contributed to this work along with @trevorcaughlin.bsky.social led by @pyroscientist.bsky.social! She demonstrates how to integrate data sources to make maps that identify various built infrastructure types and improve upon existing datasets spatially, temporally, and thematically.
I am excited to share our new paper on mapping built infrastructure using remote sensing data integration and open-source cloud computing.

Causal Inference With Observational Data and Unobserved Confounding Variables
As ecology tackles progressively larger problems, we are moving beyond the scales at which randomised controlled experiments are feasible. Using observational data for causal inference raises the pro...
