If you're looking to track animal movement using the latest #DataScience techniques, then PhD candidate @scottwilliamf is one to watch 👀

New paper! Here we GPS-tracked kākā @NZEcosanctuary, and found that younger kākā were more exploratory and had larger home ranges, which increased their exposure to risk outside the safety of the fence. We also present an approach for dynamic space use. conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.c…
We've just had an amazing two days hosting our annual environmental modelling symposium. It was incredible to see everyone over the past two days, and we're already looking forward to the next one!
Only 3 more sleeps to the 2024 Applied Mathematical Ecology Symposium!
With overwhelming interest in the event, we are beyond excited to hear the latest quantitative ecology and environmental modeling research in South-East Queensland.

Congratulations @CailanJS, the @QUTMathEcology team are incredibly proud.
@CailanJS has done some phenomenal research into the adaptive features of cellular systems and ecosystems, showcasing some impressive mathematics.
Guess who just finished their PhD final seminar! Congratulations @CailanJS!
Thanks for teaching me that you can write your thesis doc in the last few months, that bagels are the highest form of motivation & that you can "accidentally" jigsaw-procrastinate for hours.
We were absolutely delighted to have Dr Binbin Li deliver this seminar.
Not only did her talk showcase inspiring conservation research, but also shone a bright light on our fantastic masters student Zhao (@yangyuzhaomax) for organising and facilitating the talk.
Dr Binbin Li @Taotiebin recently visited @QUTMathEcology and gave a great talk. Her talk and work are truly captivating and motivating. Balancing the challenges of conservation and community development is no easy feat, but She and her team excel at both.

The Great Barrier Reef is roughly the size of Italy, making #reef #conservation a logistical nightmare. How many boats we use, which ports to launch from and where to build facilities can majorly affect the costs of reef restoration!
Luckily @RyuLippmann is on the job! 🪸⛵️🤿💰
Proud to share that the first chapter of my PhD thesis was published today! It's about optimizing coral aquaculture for reef restoration. It's an honour to contribute to the important work of preserving our planet 🌊🪸🐠

Our crack team of experts are tackling how data can better inform ecosystem protection in data-limited systems like Antarctica. We’re developing methods so that as monitoring gets cheaper, easier, and more desired, everyone has the tools to help decide where to do it
Dr Morenikeji Deborah Akinlotan (@MD_Akinlotan) is a huge asset to the @QUTMathEcology team, providing critical decision-making research for Antarctic conservation. Deborah is a #dataScience gem, a mother, and an entrepreneur!

We're celebrating 👏Women in Data Science (#WiDS) leading up to International Women's Day #IWD2023 next week! Meet Dr Morenikeji Deborah Akinlotan @MD_Akinlotan, a Research Fellow with @QUTDataScience. Deborah is using her #data superpowers to try to save Antarctica. #WiDS2023
Not only is Dr Catherine Kim (@fishiintheC) our resident marine expert, she is also a powerhouse in the #DataScience world! Catherine helps run @RLadiesBrisbane and she is our go-to for GIS modeling. #WiDS2023

As we countdown to #IWD2023, we're celebrating Women in Data Science (WiDS)! Meet Dr Catherine Kim @fishiintheC from @QUTMathEcology & @QUTDataScience. She is using #DataScience to explore & tackle important questions about coral reefs. #WiDS2023 #GreatBarrierReef #WomenInSTEM
This week @thejholloway from @UniofAdelaide visited our @QUTMathEcology group to show us her work on improving short term projections of sea ice change. Jacinta does incredible research on all things #MachineLearning and #satelliteImages – she’s one to watch!
We are incredibly proud of all our @QUTMathEcology presenters at @anziam2023!
Now that the conference is over, we invite you to choose your #ANZIAM23 math ecology fighter
@LuzVPascal1
Strengths- only documented case of a student able to understand POMDPs
Weaknesses - “I’m really funny in French”
@KateHelmstedt
S- Literally about to save Antarctica
W- Frightens easily
Analysing “model sloppiness”, @SarahVollert explores what parts of models are important to keep, and which can be removed when modelling coral growth at #canziam @anziam2023 – at Cairns, Queensland
We’re excited to kick off a huge week of applied and industrial mathematics this week in Cairns at @anziam2023! Here’s a thread with some must see math ecology talks #CANZIAM #ANZIAM23
It’s day one and @anziam2023 maths conference in Far North Queensland is off to a great start! Three mathematicians, two grant proposals, three waterfalls, one lizard, one wallaby, 20 fireflies, seven turtles, zero tree kangaroos

Congratulations Dr Holland! We are incredibly proud of you and your research on invasive species in Antarctica #phdone
What better way to finish the week. Thanks to all the people who have supported me throughout, particularly my dream-team of supervisors: Prof. Kerrie Wilson, Assoc. Prof. @KateHelmstedt , Dr. @justine_d_shaw and Dr. @stark_jonny. Thanks also to @QUT @QUTMathEcology & @saef_arc!

It was fantastic to have quantitative ecologists from across the Brisbane region come together for the QUT Applied Mathematical Ecology Symposium for 2023. Bats, coral, elephants, penguins, seagrass, buffalo, fish— you name it, we can model it all 🦇🪸🐘🐧🌿🐃🐠
