Looking for suggestions for readings for a session on "what can be data?" for an Intro-level Env Studies course.
I'm feeling underwhelmed w my current list.
Grasslands in much of the world are threatened - yet a conservation community focused on forests ignores these threats - or worse - sees grasslands merely as degraded forests which require "restoration." We write about this wrt to India here: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/rec.13858 with ungated version here https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Sutirtha-Lahiri/publication/366559726_Grassland_conservation_and_restoration_in_India_A_governance_crisis/links/63b0ad7f03aad5368e54cb94/Grassland-conservation-and-restoration-in-India-A-governance-crisis.pdf - and thanks to the great students who led the way on this paper!

Enrollment for my self-paced online courses on R (for ecologists and related fields) is soon to open again! If you are a student and want to finally become confident handling your own data in 2023, this is for you.

I designed my courses as what I wish I had when I started grad school, so I hope they can be as useful as possible, whether you are a total beginner, or already know some basics.

First order of business in my new office @cornell is to figure out where to hang the going away present from my amazing GWU colleagues.

Moving to Ithaca tomorrow!
House is chaos. Need a recommendation of something to listen to so I can stay motivated to keep packing.

(Also out of beer, so I’ll accept that as well 🤣)

Ok, classes are over. My office is packed up for my big move. Finally have time to jump ship. Now how do I find all of my people on here???
