The value of field research in academia. "...the constraints imposed by fieldwork are often incompatible with high publication rates, journal impact factors, and citation counts, which are valued by hiring & tenure committees...." This needs to change! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Heads up - this is a really important paper as the frequency of disturbances increases with a warming climate. MPA effects are going to be harder to detect, even when present.
💬 New paper! 🔥🌀🦠🐟🎣View quoted post on X
Curious about whether that recent heatwave, cyclone, or disease outbreak is going to affect your marine reserve assessment? @j_wilson_white and I show that extreme disturbances can delay seeing MPA success for up to 10yrs.

@mallarie_yeager presented her work understanding connectivity in California's #MPA network using a combination of ROMS, SDMs, and dynamic models. Results show how connectivity varies with oceanography along the coastline. #WSN2022 Funded by @OPC_California
