Excited to share our new paper on the relationship between firearms and conservation! We explore the production of eco-munitionary subjects: individuals that act to reproduce the mutually constitutive relationship between the firearms industry and wildlife agencies.

Our research group is organizing session at the Pathways conference in Colorado May 31-June 3. If you are doing research on politics or ethics of wildlife management, consider joining our session. We seek abstracts by 11/16. Contact me with questions!

Session title: Cooperation and Coordination in Wildlife Management

Session description:
Wildlife management inherently involves coordination of stakeholders across properties and jurisdictions as wildlife and those seeking wildlife (for hunting, viewing, or other purposes) travel across the landscape. Likewise, those concerned with wildlife management may come from locations far from the site of management. As such, stakeholder engagement and coordination have long been central to wildlife management activities. Wildlife management, however, increasingly faces three intersecting processes that complicate this engagement: 1) shifting values within agencies, NGOs, and among the public, increasingly emphasizing biodiversity, ecosystem services, resiliency, and non-consumptive uses of nature; 2) ongoing transformation of land use and land cover, particularly urbanization, subdivision of properties, and changing ownership and norms, and 3) shifting distributions of wildlife populations. These social and ecological changes constitute novel conditions that may increase conflict and present significant challenges for coordinating stakeholders with diverse interests.

Hello Mastodon world. I'm new here. I'm an environmental social scientist, with research focused on ecological restoration, forest management, and urban nature. Looking to engage & learn. As I explore here, will also be mirroring my Twitter (@forrestfleisch1)

It's SciCom day!! Two media interviews, one on drought and environmental justice and one on virtual water exports, + preparing for a podcast interview about my new grant project on water energy nexus. Fun opportunity to try and make the case that the stuff I nerd out about all the time is maybe relevant and interesting to other people too!

Got a conditional acceptance on a manuscript today! I am very excited to get this next paper about the entanglements of guns and conservation into the world! It makes big advancements on our prior paper about the Pittman-Roberston Act.

Still updating geographers on Mastodon list, which is growing steadily progcity.maynoothuniversity.ie These entries are also being added to codeberg list (with slight delay) where you can bulk follow folks lejun.codeberg.page/Mastodon-G If you want to be added let me know details. I'm not adding folks where the account is effectively anonymous

@nightmayor I would have thought so. maybe they did? I have had another paper go through an entire review process and get published in the time for these first reviews.

I'm a political ecologist and human environment geographer at Portland State University. I study water governance, hydrosocial politics, and environmental justice. I love bike commuting and non-car transportation of all sorts. I have 2 small kids. Trying to figure out how mastodon works and if it works better for me than the bird app.

Going on 11 months waiting for the first round of reviews for a manuscript. After multiple communications saying I should here soon. I held out because I was told the first review was positive. The second review was submitted in September, but in a format the editor couldn’t read…: and I am still waiting.

I've assembled my thread of geographers on Mastodon into a list with names, handles and links. Hopefully this is useful to help us find each other. I'll keep adding to it for a while as I discover folks. progcity.maynoothuniversity.ie
