🫎 In a long-term experiment, Shawn Leroux and colleagues show that moose have significant impacts on boreal plant communities but little effect on soils. 🌿The data show that soils may be resilient to above-ground impacts in unproductive ecosystems. 📄doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…
An excellent article about Shawn Leroux getting our B. 4360 students into nature and engaged in the practice of science! cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
The Shawn Leroux lab would be such a fantastic lab to join-- so much cool and important research always coming out, a really beautiful landscape, and such genuinely nice folks... Would be an awesome postdoc position!
Adam Meyer and Shawn Leroux wrote a fantastic highlight on our #WTD #calving and #zoogeochemistry project in Journal of Animal Ecology. They then call for organizing context dependency for predictive zoogeochemistry! doi.org/10.1111/1365-2… Eli Ward Schmitz Lab Mark Bradford & Les Welker
⭐️Research Highlight @gadammeyer & Shawn Leroux highlight Ferraro et al. (2023), who provide a novel exploration of the impact of nutrients from mammalian parturition on soil functioning and plant tissue stoichiometry. RH: doi.org/10.1111/1365-2… Article: doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…
Congratulations Eric! Way to go!! @wildlifeevoeco Faculty of Science, Memorial University
Wonderful news! Congratulations Amy!! Faculty of Science, Memorial University
Check out the latest Research Highlight on Journal of Animal Ecology. Great article by @gadammeyer & Shawn Leroux highlighting the work of Ferraro et al. (2023) 👇
New paper from this newly minted doctor! It seems everyone is excited about the potential of Rewilding, and we are, too! So, we dove into all the complex contextual dependencies that matter when Rewilding for climate change. (1/3) People and Nature doi.org/10.1002/pan3.1…
