Ok......so I did an update of the update.

Professor and SJ Hall Chair in Forest Economics Matthew Potts co-authored a new study led by Conservation Intl that found that well-planned reforestation projects have up to 10 times more low-cost carbon removal potential than previously estimated. nature.berkeley.edu/news/2024/07/r…

happy to share a new paper co-led w/ Dr. Elizabeth Carlen where we find that generally, census tracts w/ less income, less white people, and were previously redlined have less eBird/iNaturalist data than you would expect based on area or population density! ecologyandsociety.org/vol29/iss3/art…

Hear from Berkeley Environmental Science, Policy & Mngmt professor Christopher Schell and alum Christine Wilkinson, PhD 🌈 tomorrow at 10 a.m. as they sit down with KQED Forum's Mina Kim 김미나 to talk about coexisting with California's urban coyotes. kqed.org/forum/20101019…

Professor Christopher Schell spoke to Outside In Radio about the animals that live in cities—and sometimes wind up under your porch. “Seeing animals in cities is not a bad thing… it's a sign that your city is ecologically healthy, resilient, and sustainable.” outsideinradio.org/shows/whats-li…

The Eaton Fire in LA decimated my family's homes, i.e., our community and spiritual waypoints for more than 4 generations (myself included). While we are heartbroken, we are resilient. Please consider donating to our GoFundMe to help rebuild (thank you!) gofund.me/6977eb84

Hey folks, several members of my dear friend Christopher Schell’s family lost their homes in Altadena. Please consider donating to help them rebuild. Sharing helps too, even if you can’t donate. Thank you 💙. #LosAngelesFires gofundme.com/f/help-the-was…

Hey carnivore world, one of our own needs help.

I'm so excited to share that my first dissertation chapter on SF coyotes is out in the #OpenAccess journal Ecosphere. We DNA metabarcoded and genotyped hundreds of scats to explore dietary variation across the city 🧬💩🧪 doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.7…

Come work with us! The Schell Lab is looking for a new postdoc to work on urban biodiversity initiatives in the Bay Area and throughout California. The future postdoc will also be an integral partner of the California Urban Nature Alliance. aprecruit.berkeley.edu/JPF04719
