Over the next few weeks you may see headlines about the Rice's whale. It's a population of ~50 in the Gulf of Mexico that you have likely never heard of before. My latest #openaccess #research with @emilyyeager9.bsky.social explains why that is and what you can do about it 🧵 🔗 bit.ly/RicesWhaleNews

Issue-attention cycles are the foundation of my recent research on the role of communication & media in whale conservation. But what are they? Five stages that help us follow the rise and fall of public attention to social & environmental topics. Read more: bit.ly/RicesWhaleNews

Don't forget to check out our new research. We analyzed four years of news media about Rice's whales & compare the results to the media cycle about North Atlantic right whales. Worth reading even if you don't work in whale science & conservation. Available Open Access: bit.ly/RicesWhaleNews

What did newspapers cover after the discovery of Rice's whales? Disagreements about policy proposals. It's a human story featuring whales, not a whale tale. Our new study shows that this approach serves news orgs well but can work against conservation and management. Read it: bit.ly/RicesWhaleNews

From our new #research: Of the 35 newspaper texts we analyzed (2021-2024), 60% focused entirely on Rice's whales. The remaining 40% often included the whales as an example, but in the context of some other topic. Read to find out what this means & why it matters: doi.org/10.1007/s13280-025-02265-y

New #research: discovering the world's most endangered whale species in 2021 didn't inspire much media/public attention. We found and analyzed only 35 articles published over 4 years. More than 1/2 were from 2023 during debates about oil and gas leases in the Gulf. Read it: bit.ly/RicesWhaleNews

🐋📰 New #OpenAccess #Research 📰🐋 In 2021 scientists id'd a new species of endangered whale in the Gulf of Mexico: the Rice’s whale. @emilyyeager9.bsky.social & I wanted to know if that discovery started a news cycle. Tl;dr - it didn't. Read it in Ambio by @springernature.com: bit.ly/RicesWhaleNews

Thanks @oceana.bsky.social for hosting me today to share some of my #environmentalcommunication #research with team members from across the organization! We discussed the findings of my studies on #rightwhale media and how to use communication and media to understand & support #marineconservation.

There are important and inherent challenges to communicating about marine and coastal topics. In my #openaccess article, I argue that a #humanhealth framing may help communicators and advocates reach new audiences and create conditions for change. Read it here: www.frontiersin.org/journals/pub...
