So excited that one of my MSc chapters is out now! We used a large-scale, multi-year survey to empirically test the metapopulation hypothesis for range limits: doi.org/10.1111/ele.... (1/9)
Evidence That Metapopulation Dynamics Maintain a Species' Range Limit
The metapopulation hypothesis for species range limits posits that a range limit may be imposed by subtle variation in rates of either patch colonisation or extinction. Using a multi-year survey acro...

Had so much fun today representing @munlgeog.bsky.social at the virtual ACAG conference! I discussed some preliminary results from a project with @carissabrown.bsky.social, where we’ve found unusual post-fire black spruce recruitment patterns at the south coast of Labrador 🌱
ACAG*’s 2024 conference has kicked off, and the first #NorthernEDGELab @munlgeog.bsky.social talk was from MSc candidate Pierrette James-Bourque. Great science, baby trees, and memes - what else could one ask for? *Atlantic Division of the Canadian Association of Geographers
Made a little starter pack for Geographers at Memorial University of Newfoundland and Labrador! @munlgeog.bsky.social go.bsky.app/Gd1RF3v
Wow, things are really picking up over here! Guess we’d better dust off our account and start to #ThinkOutside under this sunny BlueSky (okay, we are in Newfoundland in November, so outlook for actual blue sky is … uncertain). Stay tuned for some content from the last few months!
Wednesday! It’s our first ever #GeographyAwarenessWeek Open Labs day! Come visit our research labs and see what we are up to these days in the ol’Science Building. All are welcome!
A great first day of the ACAG 2023 conference, hosted by us! What’s ACAG? It’s the Atlantic Division of the Canadian Assoc. of Geographers. We are a geographically dispersed Division, & have decided to keep meetings virtual (& free) to be as equitable and inclusive as we can. More to come tomorrow!
New research on newcomer transit experiences in Canadian mid-sized cities by Tolulope Akerele of MUNL Geography ft on CBC. “Akerele said the increased ridership is positive but the next step should be finding ways to make the experience better.” @munlgeog.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
New article out in @areajournal.bsky.social builds on Freidberg's work on environmental 'footprinting' and technopolitical power to help explain how salmon farming corporations are engaging with global food governance. @munlgeog.bsky.social rgs-ibg.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
‘Finprint’ technopolitics and the corporatisation of global food governance
This paper examines the environmental ‘footprinting’ of food and its role as a source of technopolitical power in global food governance. Our case is the highly industrialised farmed salmon sector...

We love to #ThinkOutside at MUNL Geography! @carissabrown.bsky.social took #GEOG3140 Biogeography students out to a good ol’Newfoundland boreal bog to talk about adaptations and species-environment matching. Nothing makes those undergrad memories like a boot full of bog.
