Have you ever wished you could listen to a scientific paper on a walk, bike ride or commute? Now you can! This week I had the pleasure of recording a reading of our recent manuscript. Just one tiny way I can make this science more accessible. Link below, eager to hear your thoughts and feedback!

After almost four years, and so so much help from my amazing advisor @seemasheth.bsky.social and many others, I am grateful to be able to share this publication with the world.

When I finally started analyzing the data for this paper, I was a snobby Californian who’d just moved to the east coast, hopeful to help answer questions about alpine plant communities and climate change.

Eventually, I fell in love with these places as a park ranger and naturalist. Questions about what was happening here in the context of climate change bubbled to the top of my mind.

During the time I was busy growing up, learning how to love, and discovering botany and ecology, a group of beautiful, heartfull people climbed these peaks, endured sun, rain, and wind, and bore witness to these places.

When the first piece of data included in this paper was collected, I looked like this:

Agree overall, didn’t read the article, and in my opinion the way forward is via a natural history revolution in undergraduate education including bryology and lichenology among the other glorious “ologies”.

Awesome plant, awesome place, awesome research! I am fairly confident we found a new individual of Draba asterophora on one of the Carson Range GLORIA peaks (Freel) in 2022, right on the bottom edge of where we monitor!

A few weeks ago I presented to an absolutely massive audience of 250+ people on zoom as part of the Botanical Society of America Virtual Symposium on Climate Change! I was very nervous and very stoked. Here is the link: youtu.be/AlYQrYM9OAo?...
