Really hard to overstate the massive anxiety among environmental scientists right now. I don't know how I'm supposed to build a career when the backdrop is so grim. www.science.org/content/arti...

born too late to get a two Western blot Nature paper, born too early to be a science TikTokker, born just in time to start a postdoc during a global pandemic and look for faculty positions during a historic hiring freeze

Governments should have no means of affecting bodily autonomy. And trans people deserve peace and happiness. The breakneck pace of discriminatory and harmful executive orders is a strategy to beat us into submission. I refuse to submit.

Critical to be aware where we're being misled & what is real “There are no known links between large whale deaths and ongoing offshore wind activities”. Climate crisis & subsequently warming waters impact food sources to force whales to new (unprotected) areas www.capeandislands.org/local-news/2...

Is offshore wind driving whales ‘crazy?’ Science says no
Just hours after his inauguration on Monday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order halting new federal leases for offshore wind projects. He cited, as one reason, the impact offshore wind m...

Improved knowledge of Atlantic cod biological stock structure in US and adjacent Canadian waters has led to a new spatial management framework. Recently, I've been working on spatiotemporal models of cod distribution built on a suite of fishery-independent surveys and environmental covariates.
Atlantic cod biological stock spatial strata within the US Northeast continental shelf large marine ecosystem (EGOM: Eastern Gulf of Maine; GBK: Georges Bank; SNE: Southern New England; WGOM: Western Gulf of Maine). Areas with year-round groundfishing closures are filled with crosshatches. Lines indicate the 50, 100, and 200 m isobaths, with darker lines representing deeper isobaths. Ecologically important regions are annotated on the map.

Applications for Quahog Bay Conservancy's undergraduate summer internships are open. This is a fantastic program that guides students through hands-on development of field, lab, and academic skills. Students also receive course credits through UMaine. Apply now! quahogbay.org/wp-content/u...

Howdy. I'm an early career researcher interested in the spatial dynamics, population dynamics, and habitat utilization of marine and estuarine fishes. I do a ton of spatiotemporal modeling in R and spend my summers teaching undergrads field, lab, data handling, and scientific communication skills.
