The ESA Water Cooler

During the COVID-19 pandemic, with so many ecologists, students, and supporters working remotely, ESA will be providing virtual meeting space for members to connect with each other and talk about the science, their work, and items on their mind during this disruptive time. Bring your thoughts, your ideas, and your questions!
