New on Jabberwocky Ecology (our blog) - We’re excited to announce the initial release of crown maps for 100 million trees in the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) with information on location, species identify, size, and alive/dead status. doi.org/10.59350/6vj... 🧪🌎
Pictures of the BART NEON site with tree crowns indicated by boxes of different colors for different species at three scales: 1) The full site and surrounding region; 2) 500 m x 250 m; and 3) 90 m x 150m. The largest scale exhibits clusters and gradients of different colors. At the middle scale small boxes can be seen clustered by color. At the finest scales tree crowns can be seen surrounded by boxes of different colors.

We're hiring a project manager to help run our wading bird project in the Everglades! If you like birds, boats, managing a small field crew, & are at least interested in drones & work that informs management decisions, this might be the job for you!

To make projects on one of our long-term studies easier we built an #rstats Shiny app that lets us visualize and build basic models for dynamics at the site. This lets us iterate more quickly than having to stop and wait while someone does common data viz work portalexplorer.weecology.org 🌎️
Screen shot of the Portal Explorer showing tabs for time-series, covariates, population dynamics, etc. Two species and a limited date range are selected and a plot shows the population time-series for those species during the selected range of dates from 2000 to 2020.

weecology is now on BlueSky! We're an interdisciplinary ecology and environmental data science research group led by skmorgane.bsky.social & @ethan.weecology.org. We do things like use drones and machine learning to monitor wading birds in the Everglades and make ecological forecasts. weecology.org
