@shaunlevick giving me a rundown of our new @acecoretech #NOA + @RIEGL #VUX120 at the Territory Wildlife Park experimental burn plots. Looking forward to using this beast to map the impact of fire and feral herbivores on northern Australia's savannas @CSIRO

A number of areas providing refuge for the black-footed tree-rat have been marked for extensive land clearing in the Top End.... so as much as it pains me to take a vote away from the @savanna_glider, consider voting for this soon to be further threatened species.

Great to have some discussion on this. Inland sugar glider was one name that we considered during the taxonomic description of the species however given that much of the species’ distribution includes coastal VIC we decided it didn’t appropriately reflect the species.

#feralhorses have real impacts. This fouled waterhole is a disappointing reminder that beautiful animals can do terrible things in special places.

We are hoping that our research will provide insight 👀 about how umbrella terms ☂️ can ‘take-away’ consumers choice 🍽️

Curious to gauge how many researchers, if any, are running remote camera surveys in Aus, without baits and without strategic placement on tracks, to survey wildlife including small mammals. @StuDawson @EuanRitchie1 @NewsomeTM @BronFancourt @matt_w_rees @DianaF1080 @Judy_Dunlop

There’s simply no time for platitudes and further dithering. Australia’s remaining mammals deserve far better, they deserve secure futures.

Latest #CDU #research from @RIELresearch and Dr. Amélie Corriveau @amelsoz finds that #magpiegeese resist the allure of mango madness across the #TopEnd, with new solutions to improve management as the #Territory heads into mango season.

The fight to keep @GEDI_Knights on the #ISS continues but we’re running out of time. Tonight @nbcwashington aired a summary of the current situation - spread the word, help #KeepGEDIUp @NASA nbcwashington.com/news/local…

Interesting. CSIRO now using recruiters to approach people for jobs via LinkedIn.
Change in strategy suggests they have been struggling to attract talent?
If you're into ecological modelling and oceans, look for the job in Hobart.

Following up on my whinge about the lack of ecology in the recent ARC Future Fellowships, here are some data (a real thread this time). 🧵
@shaunlevick @CSIRO presenting at @ForestSAT Showing how data from different LiDAR scanners can map changes in biomass from fire overtime in a tropical savanna.

Attending @ForestSAT? For more tropical savanna/fire talks join @_LindaLuck and I on Friday afternoon in the Fire symposium.
