It is supposed to be an antidote to over-reductionist thinking
Empirical examples might help. check out our NEW PAPER in @PaN_BES led by @HaroldEyster : besjournals.onlinelibrary.wi…

Conservation #SocialScientists! What is a myth about #HumanDimensions work you'd like to dispel? Or, if you could teach ecologists ONE thing about social science, what would it be? cc: @HdwgTws

Grasslands are easy to overlook and undervalue. I've spent the last 6+ months reporting a story on why that's a terrible mistake. My latest for @TheAtlantic #longreads theatlantic.com/science/arch…

Happy to finally have these data public! The #HumanDimensions of grizzly bear management in #MT. Descriptive stats for now, but stay tuned - @HollyNesbitt has been busy!
How do Montanans feel about grizzlies? UM’s Human Dimensions Lab recently conducted a study with Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks to better understand perspectives about grizzly bears and their management. bit.ly/UMbearstudy @HollyNesbitt @Metcalf_Lab

Unless science-communication is valued as much as journal articles, fundamentally important scientific insights, for example, on climate change, will not reach the people that are most affected, argues IRES PhD @Abhishek_Kar_AK.

Thanks! Words matter. There's enough confusion about climate change without introducing words with double meanings. Here's my table with a citation. I've now identified 150 of them!

Is #scicomm worth your time? @LUGElab PhD student @vinnyricciardi sure thinks so! And his supervisor agrees that the little apps he builds to share his analysis have been just amazing (but makes his supervisor feel like a dinosaur). Check it out: aaas.org/programs/center-pub…

Primary treatment spillover at the Missoula Wastewater Treatment Facility. Would a new name, “Water Recovery Facilty,” be a better marketing tool? @WEFNexusUM #UMBRIDGES
