On the way back to Spokane from an excellent #EvoWIBO, a brief stop at the #BurkeMuseum to gather some invaluable preliminary #data in advance of this summer's #paleoecology-focused #field season.

This seems like an easy case for uniformitarianism. Modern clam shrimp live in ephemeral freshwater bodies, ergo fossil clam shrimp indicate ephemeral bodies of freshwater. Simple! #branchiopoda #paleoecology #paleontology #palaeontology #spinicaudata

@quantumlandbooks #evolutionaryecology, here I am! 😊 (but also #paleoecology, #popgen)

I’m still trying to figure out what I want to post about here. I left #TheBird in April when it became clear it would be bought. Since then it’s actually been pretty nice not to be so heavily engaged with daily microblogging, but there is stuff I want to share. My journey as part of our departmental #dei committee, the advances and cool things we’re learning rebuilding the #Neotoma #Paleoecology database R package, other #programming stuff… EarthCube thingy-things… all that stuff.
