Hi, we are looking for some relatively small, robust loggers to record pH,
oxygen and temperature. They would need to be suitable for marine deployments
and waterproof to 10 m (30 ft) depth. Does anyone have (positive) experience
with this type of instrumentation or know of a good manufacturer
Malcolm and Ecolog:
Malcolm, I think you may have mis-read or misunderstood me or perhaps I
misspoke. I did not intend for [students] to disregard the expectations of
others, I intended to suggest that we [students] should have expectations of
ourselves but not have expectations OF others.
Although I agree with you philosophicly, its the expectations of
others that lead to employment.
GIS has not always been important, it is now.
The goal in my list is not to be prepared to do all this work, its to
create a portfolio of evidence that suggests you have the tools to do
the work. For
Hi,
Thanks for this message and all the previous ones (I just joined some days
ago). I finished my PhD in Plant Ecology almost one year and a half ago. I
had two published papers, lots of contacts, lots of conferences, quite a
lot of experience, have worked hard during the last years... and needed
My read of the original paper by Brickney is that technical/analytical
skills are very important. Looking at their PCA, most of the variation lies
on a spectrum of technical/analytical/field experience to project
management/interpersonal. Despite comments on this listserv, both hard and
soft

Hello All
I agree completely with Wayne PS...that is why is time for researchers to
invest in science communication and have their own production :) There are
more and more researchers investing in learning video skills and use them
to spread their work.

Hi Yvette,
Apologies, but your interpretation of my suggestion is extremely misguided
and flat-out wrong. My response was a cleaver way of saying that you can
ignore the silly responses of particular ECO-LOGGERS (some of which have a
track record of this behavior) by filtering your emails.

On behalf of a colleague, I am looking for articles that investigate what the

subscribe to the concept of green or sustainable it can mean many different

Now, I am the one who must speak up and voice my support for Yvette (and
Chandreyee). While no slight may have been intended, as a female scientist I
too experienced the responses Yvette cites - and especially the one recently
posted by Dr. Olden - as belittling and dismissive. There is
Seems to me that you completely misunderstood Dr. Olden's e-mail, who (to
my understanding) just tried to help everyone to reject sexist comments
like the one originally posted.
I am not saying that this kind of comments should not
be publicly disapproved, and probably just moving them into the
Y'all,
Green and sustainable, and yes, even perhaps biodiversity are examples
of terms that have lost some of their utility because they have been

Exactly! We are now all feeding the troll. Let's talk about best

would be funded (note
Dear all,
I was not at all offended by Dr. Olden's advice, and, as a matter of fact,
found it very sensible.
Thanks
