Best paper title award for the day goes to Dalén et al. 2004:

1/4 We want to know how is ADelie, CHinstrap and GEntoo phenology responding to the warming of the 🇦🇶peninsula 🛠️: we used Penguin Watch citizen science and AI to find out the number of 🐧in 1.5M colony images taken over the last 9 yr. #WSTC7 #BehaSesh2

I demand to know who is responsible for this nytimes.com/2021/06/22/sci…

🥳The first chapter of my dissertation was ~conditionally accepted~ to #IEEEVIS! Never imagined the first publication of my thesis would be about animation, let alone in the field of computer science. Time to share some cool facts about #whales & #dataviz at #VIS2021 #wimms

Looking for 2 PhD students (3+ yrs funding) to work on ecology, physiology, and behavior of elephant seals in my lab at UC Santa Cruz! Deadline Oct 1. Full info at tinyurl.com/rulesofdeath Please RT 🦭 Intl Bio-Logging Soc Marine Mammalogy Animal Behavior Society #newPI #openacademics #animalbehavior

If you're interested in working with bio-logging tags, check out our new @GoldbogenLab paper headed by Dave Cade! His herculean efforts over the last few years have created the whale data sandbox that our lab gets to play around in every day. animalbiotelemetry.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…
