The sequential depletion and targeting of smaller and smaller whales over time: blue, fin, sei, minke whales... as catches and search effort expanded Visualization in Battle et al. 2023 https://t.co/kDkw4oObEw

We are pleased to announce that @UW graduate students Zoe Rand and Anna Simeon have been selected for the 2023 @NOAAFisheries–@SeaGrant Joint Fellowship in population and ecosystem dynamics. Congrats Zoe and Anna! 🥳🎉 Read more: https://t.co/xBkJDvrdiL

Had a great time presenting the work from my first chapter at #ESA2023!

Honored to be a part of this program and looking forward to continuing to work on population dynamics models for baleen whales

Check out this cool visualization tool for the IWC catch database!

I'm looking for a grad student for 2023 to work on management strategy evaluations for herring in Prince William Sound. Ideal applicants would have strengths in math/stats/coding plus fisheries/ecology. $2500-2900/mo stipend+benefits https://t.co/x2juPRZXW4

Come work with us! My department @GeorgiaAquarium is hiring a Research Scientist with a focus on modeling. You'll help support our IUCN Center for Species Survival conservation work! #marinescience #marinesciencejob #marineconservation #job https://t.co/Njcq0Aik9k

PIs are like “I have the worst memory” one second, and then “oh don’t you remember Figure 2, panel C and [insert obscure factoid] in the September 2005 paper from Buchanan in the Abel lab?” the next 🙄

Extremely rare sighting of cow-calf pair of Antarctic blue whales off the west coast of South Africa... only the fourth confirmed sighting since the 1960s Paper by @MduBeernong and colleagues https://t.co/dLqzD2mUxl

Have plans this Friday lunchtime? If not, check out the next 📈Quantitative Seminar held at #UWSAFS. @ZoeRand from @UW_QERM is discussing movement rates of Antarctic blue whales 🐋from historical data using Bayesian models. Join in person or online! ↪️ https://t.co/MxSiagpBLM

Did you miss today's #UWSAFS Quantitative Seminar? Watch it here!⤵️ Dr Susanne McDermott - @NOAAFisheriesAK & Dr Julie Nielsen - Kingfisher Marine Research, discussed examining distributional shifts of Pacific 🐟cod in Alaska with Satellite popup tags. https://t.co/TL8fSRNCF8

🎤This time next week we’ll be starting the lunchtime Quantitative Seminars at #UWSAFS. From monitoring 🐦seabirds, 🐋blue whales and 🦇bats to discussing cannibalism in Pacific hake🐟, #research experts join us to share their insights. Register here ➡️ https://t.co/VQ0tENPe0i

Kept my promise to @MklJMoore at #SMM2022 to buy his book when I got home and put the super cool bookplate he signed inside of it. I'm so excited to read it!

Proof that @Eva_MariaB and @LRClance and I did more at #SMM2022 than stand under whales to take pictures and, in fact, listened to so many amazing presentations about innovative and interesting research:

Last chance to come talk to me at #SMM2022 in person about how duty cycles affect the information available in PAM data, tonight from 6-7:30 pm. Online folks, check out the poster on the online platform and feel free to send questions in the comments.

“Success is seeing people understand what you are taking about… [not just impact factors]” -Susana Caballaro at #SMM2022

Here’s us “breaching” like a humpback as well.

#SMM2022 has been a great opportunity to reconnect with folks we haven’t seen in person since March 2020, including a little mini #MSc_MMS_St_A 2020 cohort reunion with @Eva_MariaB . And of course we had to take silly pics with the humpback whale. @_SMRU_

'If an intelligent high school student can't understand what you are talking about, the student isn't the problem.' Michael A Castellini, pressuring those at #smm2022 to use clear language, and talk to the public about our research. It is the only way to get everyone excited.

Presented my poster about using duty cycles to analyze passive acoustic monitoring today at #SMM2022 .If you missed it, come chat with me on Thursday to see how duty cycles affect the information available in your data.
