So fun to get some more coverage of our @mditmer.bsky.social recreation/sound ecology work in the Jackson Hole News and Guide!

We also simulated grizzly movement for different future scenarios and found increased road building and mining decreased functional connectivity for bears in this area. Maps provided can help inform grizzly bear management and conservation planning.

Analyzing movement revealed bears avoided crossing most human-associated features like roads -- even though many bears used areas along roadsides due to rich forage opportunities.

Very excited to share this paper led by my former postdoc, Eric Palm, and collaborated on with a stellar team of scientists

Flattened, like one of your pancakes

Let's dive into this a bit. A short and very incomplete thread on US Forest Service research. 1/

Congrats, Rob! It’s well deserved!

A nice summary of our article out today in Science:

How organismal movement is critical to meeting global and local conservation goals

Really excited to share this new article from the lab.

We synthesize the profound importance of movement and connectivity for conservation and provide a vision for future policy and management.

Let's work toward a well-connected planet for biodiversity and people:

You too, Rob!

We review the science of connectivity and how to better link that science with conservation and management. We transform the concept of 'well connected' from ambiguous to a scientifically grounded, and quantifiable concept that is ecologically and socially meaningful across biomes, taxa, and scales.

I never thought I'd see my name in Science and I'm over the moon! Many thanks to Jedediah Brodie @fletcherecology.bsky.social and team. It is an honor to be a part of this!

I'm very excited to share a new paper that used the largest wolverine genetic dataset ever assembled in North America to explore genetic connectivity of wolverines across western NA. Special congrats to lead authors C. Day, E. Landguth, and M. Sawaya
