Rangeland ecophysiologist who delves into the depths of carbon and water! I am also a girl dad that wanders the wilds with them. All post are mine and don’t represent my employer.
I have thoroughly loved reading this book. Like many I struggle to write on blank pages but there is a lot of great wisdom in this book and I suggest all early career scientists to read it. Thank you @martin-nunez.bsky.social for sharing your wisdom and experiences with us!

The wonderful @brookebosborne.bsky.social came north to the Northern Great Basin Experimental Range to help install sensors for a new moss micro-site project! Stay tuned to see how moss changes the micro-climate and possibly primes carbon fixation in early spring.

Another successful year of research on virtual fencing! Bringing the last virtual fence base station in for winter. Needs a few repairs to the housing and new deep cycle batteries.

Science night at the library! Native plants, plant ecophysiology, bird songs, trail cams, gps collars, virtual fence, and a calf heart and lungs! So much fun teaching k-12 kids and their parents at the Harney County Library.
