So well deserved Dr. Joan Dudney! It will be exciting to see next steps on this amazing path…

A demographic approach to understand management effects on long lived species… we need to do more of this!

Thanks for this opportunity NSFCIVIC to codevelop projects to address our community’s needs for natural climate solutions and fire risk mitigation. It can’t be more relevant or timely. Center for Sustainable Landscapes and Communities CU Boulder Arts and Sciences City of Boulder

There are many uncertainties in predicting what ecosystems will look like in the future. In new work in Ecology Letters we find that uncertainty in the rates at which ecosystems will respond to climate change swamp our uncertainty about future climates. doi.org/10.1111/ele.14…

And if you have been involved with using quantitative functional traits (from a database or measured directly) in restoration planning or assessment, get in touch! (DM or email us) We are planning a follow up effort examining successes and lessons learned.

Such a great episode about grassland conservation! Thanks The Pulse

The Marshall Fire showed us that we can’t ignore grassland fire risk, particularly as climate changes. There are ways to reduce risk while still maintaining the incredible biodiversity and carbon storage of our grasslands. BoCo Open Space CU Boulder 🦬 Boulder OSMP

There will be more grassfires in our future…we have got to reduce risk while still protecting the value of our grasslands

Excited to announce — UCSB Bren School is accepting applications for the Global Change #PostdocFellowship cohort!!! Join an innovative #team of #interdisciplinary scholars focused on solving today's most pressing environmental challenges! globalchangepostdoctoralfellowship.com

It is quite an honor! Thank you! I hope the papers help spur thought and advance our field in some small way. Kudos to the genius students and postdocs behind these papers, it is such a pleasure to work with you all!

In what ways do ecological communities reorganize due to climate change? Does this affect how best to restore or conserve diversity? Thanks to Ecological Society for the opportunity to develop this framework & my superstar co-authors. A hopeful step #biodiversity and #climate crises.

Plants can help their neighbors and moderate microclimates. Figuring out how 🌱 🌿 do that could help climate resilience, say Laurel Brigham & Katharine Suding in new Oikos paper: buff.ly/3XbjVzG. (paywall)
