A new #OpenAccess study in Ecology!👇
Came here to say I just published this paper out of my PhD called "Why does animal home range size decrease with population density?".

Nice work, Justine!
Never thought I’d reach this level of scientific boujee - our @Nature Correspondence article was just published!
@tonyrwalker1 & I argue there needs to be accountability & global unity in tackling #plasticpollution, nations shouldn’t be able to opt out

Still can scarcely believe it myself! Winning an award named after legendary Prof. Hanski is a great honour & deeply humbling. Grateful to Oecologia, my amazing coauthors @sjleroux @wildlifeevoeco @YolandaWiersma @TravisHeckford @balluffi @bellarichmond, & field assistants 🥾🐰🌱
Matteo Rizzuto, a postdoc in @SchmitzLab, was named the winner of the Hanski Prize by the journal Oecologia for his paper on how food chemistry drives range size of snowshoe hares in boreal forests.

Awesome day in YEG celebrating @boutinlab’s career mentoring students, uncovering the unknown, and propelling 🇨🇦 science forward 🐿 🦌 🐰. Generations of scientists that influenced him (Krebs, Sinclair, etc) and who he’s influenced (us, innumerable) came together. Wonderful 🍻
My little bro!
Congratulations to County College of Morris student Peter Balluffi-Fry, an International Studies major, who is the recipient of the Point Foundation’s David C. Kleiman Scholarship. CCM is PROUD of his successes!

Four years ago, a scientist I'd never met approached me and said: "I think you are probably wrong."
Instead of arguing, we collaborated on a study to see if humans possess "nutritional wisdom."
What we learned will surprise you! 🧵

I personally believe that academic twitter is very toxic & negative for incoming PhD students. Let us enjoy this excitement, we are nervous enough as is. Telling us how difficult it is is not helping & surely is not great advice.

New paper in press! This time, no data- just thoughts and discussion on the benefits of using ecological stoichiometry as a framework for studying terrestrial herbivore nutritional ecology.

The ideas behind this paper originated from my MSc thesis book end, which I adapted into a manuscript with the help of E. Vander Wal, @EChampagnePhD, and @sjleroux.
New paper out! Work from my MSc where I measured snowshoe hare responses to intraspecific variation in plant quality. Many thanks to my co-authors: E Vander Wal @sjleroux @YolandaWiersma @TravisHeckford @MatteoRiz @bellarichmond and J Kennah!!

We measured snowshoe hare feeding rates and weight change in response to spruce qualities and feeding choices respectively. We found that hares with greater preferences for high-quality spruce lost less weight during experiments.

Read the paper to see energetic demands, like coat insulation (coat colour) and ambient temperature, influenced #snowshoehare feeding behaviours. #ecology #wildlife
