PAGE 1 OFWIM NEWS JUNE 2019

Hello OFWIM Members! It is spring in the Columbia River Gorge! What a beautiful spring, I wish we had two conferences a year so you could be here now. As the season's change I am outdoors biking, hiking,

gardening and reflecting on the importance of the work we do to collect and manage information for quality decisions. I would like to thank you for all your hard work.

Here in the Pacific Northwest, we focused on supporting tools to manage information. We are

working on building online tools to support the FAIR data principles developed by FORCE 11. The FAIR data principles are a set of guidelines established to make data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Re-Usable. Working with colleagues in the USGS we are brainstorming how we can help get more out of the data we are already collecting and how to make data accessible to people across jurisdictional boundaries. I am looking forward to sharing our work at the 2019 OFWIM conference in Shepherdstown, WV.

The 2019 OFWIM Conference will be held at the National Conservation Training Center in Shepherdstown, WV. It is going to be a fantastic opportunity to share and learn, I can’t wait to share

our work. The 2018 conference was our biggest to date, we had a hard time fitting in all the wonderful talks, let’s try to keep that going. This newsletter contains a guide to expenses and a call for papers. Start making plans now and please share the conference information with your co-workers and colleagues.

The other OFWIM committees are also hard at work. Communication, Membership, and Outreach are putting out great newsletters and working improving the usability of the Tool Inventory. They are also looking for a new Web Manager. If you are interested, please reach out to the committee. A big thanks to Dyanne for maintaining the OFWIM

webpage for many years. OFWIM has a new YouTube channel thanks to the Training and Education Committee. They are working on content now. Reach out to Training and Education if you have a webinar or videos you would like to share. Elections, Nominations, and Awards are also hard at work. They are gathering scholarship applications and candidates for the Executive Committee elections. Go to the OFWIM website to learn more with about the OFWIM committees and engage.

I encourage everyone to reach out to other OFWIM members as well as spread the word about OFWIM and encourage them to join and engage.

WEB WIZARD WANTED !

OFWIM’s public website (www.ofwim.org) is an important resource for sharing fish and wildlife information management updates inside and outside the organization. Dyanne Cortez has been our lead website manager since 2012, working with the ExCom and Communications, Membership & Outreach committee to keep it up to date. But now, having retired from full-time work at Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Dyanne is ready to hand that task to another willing volunteer. The website is built in WordPress, a popular open-source platform; and graciously hosted by the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission, which provides technical assistance when there’s a server problem. Consequently, the webmaster needn’t be an uber-geek, although some knowledge of HTML coding is helpful. Managing the website takes approximately 4 hours per month, and doesn’t have to be a one-person job: the site allows for multiple editors and contributors. Interested volunteers should contact CMO chair Julie Simpson [email protected]. Dyanne plans to remain active in OFWIM and will be happy to show you the ropes!

UPCOMING TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES

Introduction to QGIS Date: July 25th, 2 PM EST Presenter: Don Schrupp

This webinar will be an introduction to QGIS. QGIS is an open source GIS (https://www.qgis.org) that is growing in popularity and ability. QGIS aims to be a user-friendly GIS, providing common functions and features, and provides a continuously growing number of capabilities provided by core functions and plugins. You can visualize, manage, edit, analyze data, and compose printable maps. We will cover the QGIS software interface, data compatibility, and map layouts during the webinar.

Prerequisites: There are no prerequisites but if you want to have QGIS (3.4) loaded on your local machine you should be able to follow along and test QGIS on your local data.

How to Join: Registration is not required. To join the webinar, go to https://ofwim.my.webex.com/meet/ofwim at the webinar’s scheduled time.

Bite-size R

This project is an educational opportunity aimed to provide beginners training into R, a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics. The information will be presented as a series of short videos. This set of videos, tutorials, and exercises is a combined effort presented by OFWIM and Keith Hurley. We will be releasing the videos in small groups so be on the lookout for the announcement of when the first group goes live.


2018 TRAVEL GRANT AWARD

RECIPIENT: GABRIEL KAMENER

At last year’s OFWIM annual meeting in Hood River, I gave the presentation “The Environmental Data Initiative’s Ecological Data Management Training Program: The Experience of a Summer Fellow at Archbold Biological Station.” I described the need for the Environmental Data Initiative (EDI), how it was formed, how it expanded on work done by the Long Term Ecological Research Network (LTER), and my experience as a fellow in EDI’s 2018 Ecological Data Management Training Program. Through EDI’s training program, I learned skills to standardize data and metadata to meet the requirements of the Ecological Metadata Language (EML) schema. At the same time, I was able to work closely with a mentor and scientists at Archbold Biological Station (ABS) in the heart of Florida to standardize and publish the station’s plant-demography, climate, and hydrology data packages to EDI’s public repository. After attending last year’s meeting, I continued to work with and publish ecological data and metadata at ABS through April 2019. I then accepted a position in late April with Florida International University’s (FIU) Periphyton Analysis Laboratory as their Information Manager, where I now work with scientists as they conduct vital research in the Florida Everglades. More information about the story of EDI and the useful resources they provide is available at environmentaldatainitiative.org. Information about the work and history

of ABS can be found at archbold-station.org. You can learn more about the LTER network at lternet.edu and FIU’s Periphyton Analysis Laboratory (including work they do as part of the Florida Coastal Everglades LTER site) at algae.fiu.edu.


2018 RESEARCH SCHOLARSHIP AWARD

RECIPIENT: JORDAN HOLTSWARTH

Thanks to the 2018 Research Scholarship Award, I was able to attend the 2018 annual meeting in Hood River, OR. I presented some preliminary results from my MS research on habitat suitability modeling for freshwater mussels. I am excited to be able to share my final results at this year’s meeting in Shepherdstown, West Virginia! Attending the 2018 meeting allowed me to listen and learn about how to use technology in different fields- besides just biology or fisheries. OFWIM also scheduled an amazing field trip in which we were able to visit a restoration site on the White Salmon River, learn how to use UAV technology to count salmon reds, and tour the Bonneville Dam. Since it was my first time in Oregon, I thought it was great that OFWIM helped us get out of the conference room and really experience the beauty of the area. One of my favorite parts of the conference was being able to meet and get involved with others that share similar interests to me– which is how I came to be the new

newsletter editor! After attending the conference, I continued working on my MS thesis and will be graduating from Tennessee Technological University in Summer 2019. While finishing my thesis, I have started working for the Illinois Natural History Survey as a project manager– working with freshwater mussels and crayfish. In Fall 2019, I will be starting a PhD position at the University of Illinois in their Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences department with Dr. Eric Larson. I look forward to continuing to be OFWIM’s newsletter editor and seeing everyone this fall! -Jordan N. Holtswarth

More NCTC Information The NCTC is a training center that offers lodging to trainees. The following information may further clarify the logistics of your attendance: Onsite Participant – Anyone registered for the OFWIM conference and lodging at the NCTC. Onsite participants are automatically enrolled in the meal plan ($50/night) for the NCTC dining hall, which is priced at the government per diem rate (breakfast - $13, lunch - $14, and dinner - $23). This meal plan is NOT optional. The meal plan charge is included in your lodging bill and specified in your receipt, which eliminates the need to pay the dining hall for each meal at meal time. Under the current rates, a Sunday through Thursday stay will cost $636 in total [($109 lodging & sustainability*4 nights = $436) + ($50 meals*4 nights = $200)].

EDUCATION DAY - CONSERVATION IN ACTION Our offsite education day will be at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute (SCBI; https://nationalzoo.si.edu/conservation) in Front Royal, VA. SCBI scientists tackle some of today’s most complex conservation challenges by studying animal behavior and reproduction, ecology, genetics, migration, and conservation sustainability. OFWIM participants will take part in an SCBI campus and endangered species driving tour (guides and vans provided by the Friends of the National Zoo). Participants will also have the opportunity to interact with SCBI GIS and wildlife staff and learn about their ongoing research projects during a technical session hosted by Drs. Qiongyu Huang and Bill McShea. This may include touring natural study areas in our own vehicles – participants are encouraged to travel to the NCTC with SUVs or similar off road vehicles. This is a rain or shine event! Option to stop at Harpers Ferry on the way back to the NCTC.

WORKSHOP DAY - TECHNIQUES FOR CONSERVATION We will be offering two concurrent half-day workshop options. Sign up for your workshop of choice during registration. Please note that workshops have a maximum capacity– course sign up is on a first come, first served basis.

Communicating Science – This hands-on workshop is offered by trainers from The Center for Communicating Science (Virginia Tech) and allows participants to learn to communicate more effectively about science with people outside of their field. Participants will get out of their seats as they use techniques from theater and improvisation to hone their communication skills.

Herp Tracking and Technology – This field to classroom workshop will be conducted by a WV DNR biologist at Leetown Science Center (~20 minutes away). Participants will travel to a nearby wetland study site and learn how spatial data for turtles are collected using radio telemetry. They will also learn how spatial data are analyzed and used to develop conservation strategies. Wear field appropriate clothing and waterproof footwear (knee boots recommended). An additional tour of the National Fish Health Research Laboratory may be possible.

The Continuing Adventures of

Captain Jack

Oregon, especially with’ winter on its way. I stowed away in me hearties baggage and within two weeks I arrived in Ecuador. Unfortunately, aft I heard Davy Jones was seen nearby, I had t' remain hidden away fer

most o' th' trip, but I heard o' places like Mindo valley, Quito, Otavalo, 'n Banos. I was able t' slip out a few times 'n smelled th’ salty air of a port somewhere nigh by. Thar was even an establishment wit’ my picture upon th’ entry sign.

Ahoy! More o’ me adventures this way!


In search o’ me ship- I see no signs o’ it. I was disappointed in th' lack o' any excursions t’ coastal ports.

Upon arriving in t' th' state o' Florida, I found transportation t' th' state o' Arizona. Here, I shall continue m’ plan me adventures 'n quest t' get back t' th' Caribbean.

I found that much o' Ecuador be mountainous 'n, although not as cold as Oregon, it wasn’ th' tropical climate I was lookin' fer. On my journey, many beautiful birds 'n unique plants were viewed.
