We report some really concerning findings for #greatergliders on the south coast of NSW: nearly all populations studied had very low effective population sizes, low genetic diversity and impacted by isolation and barriers. nature.com/articles/s4159… UOW CSES

Fortunately, we also detected potential genetic adaptations associated with high temperatures for populations occurring on the coast in warm areas. We need to conserve these populations for their adaptive potential under a changing climate.

We also need to end logging to allow habitat to recover & form the much needed hollows that greater gliders rely on for survival. If we can protect old growth trees, restore forests, create wildlife corridors, then this species has a strong chance for real recovery 🌳

Im really proud of this project. We are expanding the horizons of #Antarctic #research for long term data collection and monitoring w/Johan Barthelemy, Doug Henness, Mehrdad Amirghasemi #LoRaWAN was the best solution for data transmission for our project Securing Antarctica's Environmental Future NVIDIA UOW

And that's a wrap! PhD Thesis submitted today 🎉 259 pages later, 7 chapters, 16 publications (9 first author), 14 conference presentations and community talks, and one very happy scientist ☺️ #PhD #uowresearch UOW CSES

Thanks for mention Animal Behavior Society !! 🐸🐸 we investigated how captive diet influences exploration behaviour at reintroduction in #corroboree #frogs! Understanding animal behaviour is an important factor to consider for reintroduction/translocations! #conservation

I’ll be writing up my 1st newsletter over the weekend, covering • what I took away from the #BusaraCircle session, • fundraising events over the next few months & • why I signed up to #TeamHB8 Select the newsletter perk here: chuffed.org/project/gwdoes…

Join us this Thursday 4th May at 12.30pm Mylene Mariette will be presenting her fascinating wok on how “heat calls” in zebra finches can shape prenatal development of heat adaption traits 🐣 @uow

Call me Doc. It’s finally official!!! My doctoral degree is complete: studying coral gobies and their responses to climate change. Thanks to my wonderful supervisory team Marian Wong @reefevolution #MarkDowton & to the great department of UOW #uowseals UOW Research UOW CSES

Interested in hearing about the love lives of #corroboree #frogs and how it might help with their conservation?! Come along to Nature Talks at Shellharbour Library to hear me chat about my PhD research on the fascinating behaviour of these awesome frogs! eventbrite.com.au/e/nature-talks…
