I'm looking for jobs again- this time I need to be in the Upper Midwest. I'm available late spring 2023 and am keeping my options open- as long as it's biology or ecology related I'm interested! I also have a cute lil application supervisor now 😍

Each lab group has been organizing an event each month to celebrate IMS’ 75th anniversary. We had a blast pumpkin carving and getting some fresh air at the Noble and Paerl lab’s event on Friday!

This was a super fun project with some exciting results! So glad we were able to dedicate the work to Pete, who was a mentor to many of us on the project
From our Special Feature honoring ecologist Charles H. Peterson:
Adding hard clams to disturbed #seagrass beds improves restoration outcomes

@SarahDonaher @UNCims @SeaGrantNC @GittmanR @NSF

ALT Back Sound, North Carolina, USA, showing the experiment locations and experimental setup; two subplots were set up within each larger experimental plot; to mimic disturbance, subplots were excavated to a depth of 0.1 m; clams were added along the border of each subplot. Growth rates and cores were sampled directly adjacent to the subplot edge; percent cover and cores were sampled from within the subplot interior

Check out my new paper with some super awesome co-authors showing that bivalve facilitation can promote seagrass recovery after a physical disturbance! @UNCims #seagrass #restoration esajournals.onlinelibrary.wi…

Welp, today capped yet another few days of king tide flooding in Beaufort. Heard several folks say this is the highest the water's ever been without a hurricane. First time I've ever seen the boardwalk completely submerged.

Awesome photo of the Gittman Lab 😃 Lucky to be a part of such a supportive, adventurous, and curious group we have here! – at North Carolina, USA

Submerged aquatic vegetation is at risk, especially from poor water quality, and the problem not only affects ecosystems but also the coastal economy. coastalreview.org/2021/06/th…
Dr. Stacy Trackenberg retweeted
Just add clams.
Dr @StacyZhang_ found seagrass restoration efforts may be enhanced with the addition of these bivalves. Important implications for North Carolina. Great story in today's @Coastal_Review.

The study was recently published in @FrontMarineSci. Co-authors include: @GittmanR, @SarahDonaher, @trackenberg, @sillimanlab, & T Van Der Heide. The paper can be read here: frontiersin.org/articles/10.…
