Cornell Atkinson Postdoctoral Fellow. Researching wetland identification and carbon cycling using remote sensing, machine learning, and open-source data science tools

I'm looking for a post-doc to work on the interaction between past hydrological changes and vegetation in a disturbed peatland, using paleoecological and modelling approaches. The post-doc duration is 18 months and start date is any time before Jan 2027. DM if you are interested / have questions! 🌿🧪

These are cute drosera plants. They are carnivorous and live in peatlands. The picture shows these red plants that have a rounded  shape and sticky tentacles. They are about 3 cm high.

In my postdoc, I've been trying to learn about deep learning models for wetland mapping after my PhD coming from using random forest and calculating metrics. It's been difficult to get an intuitive grasp of what a #deeplearning model like U-Net is actually doing with the input data

Had the great opportunity to visit a wetland restoration project conducted by Ducks Unlimited. The project has worked on converting an old “muck” farm back to a wetland by removing tile drains, diverting hydrology, and planting hydrophytic vegetation. Super excited to see the progress so far!

Come join the Tumber-Dávila Lab as our next Lab manager! We have been fortunate to have Grady Welsh for the last two years, but he will soon be off to bigger and better things pursuing a PhD. While we could never replace Grady, we are eager to hire someone new to help support our ever-growing lab!

#Juneau Our CBJ elections are coming up quick and if you aren't paying attention, there are some propositions on the ballot that could have substantial impact on city government. I made a couple little graphics to help visualize it. Feel free to share but also, let me know if you spot an error!

This is an absolute disaster. If we don't stop this, they will turn NSF into a pawn of the Trump administration. There will be no research on climate, biodiversity, or anything that isn't eugenics or AI or how to more efficiently destroy the planet for profit. This cannot be allowed to happen.

Recently, all the AAAS Science & Tech Policy Fellows at EPA were terminated from our positions with little notice and for no clear reason. This effectively ended a partnership that had been going since 1980 and which had brought hundreds of scientists to the EPA as fellows, many of whom stayed. 1/7

This will be a very interesting workshop focused on UK #peatland #resilience May 6th 2025 10-5pm You can purchase tickets (discount for BES members) here: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/peatland-r... Also an option to attend remotely and I'm working hard to make sure this is as fully hybrid as possible.

The NIH indirect rate change discourse has been very eye-opening. I think me and other grad students are fairly unaware about how academic funding works. When we hear about overhead it sounds like an exorbitant cost. But now we’re taking the worst crash course on how all parts of research are funded
