New paper introducing the term of SUPER HABITAT for sharks in which all critical activities (resting, feeding, mating & giving birth) occurs. 🦈🌴❤️🍽️ 👶 Access the paper here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @dr-yannis.bsky.social @charlie-huveneers.bsky.social

Content With Purpose (CWP) and @amfisheriessoc.bsky.social debuting “Tomorrow’s Catch: Securing our Future Fisheries” at #AFS155. Through storytelling, this movie series connects data with emotion to educate audiences about issues for our freshwater and marine ecosystems across the US and Canada.

Very excited to share our latest paper as part of ResNet and an amazing team of co-authors. We present a cross-disciplinary analysis of Essential Ecosystem Service Variables (EESVs). doi.org/10.1016/j.ec... #ecosystem #essential #economic #ecological #ResNet #monitoring #cultural

Blessed to find this beautiful electric blue Faxonius virilis while sampling the St. Lawrence for my doctoral work! This is a fairly rare phenotype for this native North American species!

Our new forum piece is out now in @cp-trendsecolevo.bsky.social 🥳 We argue that existing & expanding regulations to protect specific animal groups from light pollution 💡 (e.g. bats 🦇 marine turtles 🐢 insects 🦋) might co-protect many other organisms ... doi.org/10.1016/j.tr... 🔓🧪

The numbers are mind-boggling, and I honestly wasn't aware of the full extend of roadkill's doi.org/10.1038/s415... #biodiversity #species #vertebrates

🧵 REVEALED: Community energy projects in Scotland are generating 100x more local wealth than privately-owned wind farms. But just 0.5% of the renewable power is community-owned. Why this staggering imbalance?

Out now! Our new curriculum for grades 6-12 helps educators across the #GreatLakes region engage their students to think critically about freshwater ecosystems through the lens of crayfish - read more about it here: iiseagrant.org/new-crayfish...

Happy #DeepDay. The deep sea seems so far away and yet we are more connected to it than we think. I consider myself very lucky that my work allows me to go to and study this amazing ecosystem. ourworld.unu.edu/en/deep-sea-...

New research from ENSURE – a research partnership between the University of Exeter and The Chinese University of Hong Kong offers practical guidance for achieving balance between economic growth and long-term protection of marine biodiversity. Links to full paper in original post ⬇️ 🦑🌍🧪🌐🌊

What if everyone had a biobank in a matchbox? A distributed seedbank; shared by post, scattered with care. Not stored in vaults like in Svalbard or Wakehurst Place but alive in our laneways, verges, windowsills. Guerrilla rewilding. Cheap. Communal. Powerful. A future held in every pocket. 🌍

For a quick way to act, @biologicaldiversity.org provides a customizable comment and submits it for you: act.biologicaldiversity.org/z0VvP2_CV0Cd...? The goal is to get a LOT of comments as this rule will likely end up in the courts, which will look for objections from the public. #wildlife #birds 🌎

A rare carnivorous caterpillar—previously unknown to biologists—stalks spiderwebs for food whilst dressed in the remains of its prey, a new Science study reports. This new species, dubbed the “bone collector,” is found only on a single mountainside on the Hawai’ian island of Oa’hu. scim.ag/3GBDcV7

So happy to share our Review paper A well-connected Earth: The science and conservation of organismal movement @science.org www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Coming up tomorrow but it's definitely not too late to register!

Even IF de-extinction would work (which it doesn't) - it still doesn't address the fact of lost or degraded habitat. So this is incredibly reckless to consider #biodiversity #endangered www.thedailybeast.com/trump-admini...

NEW PAPER, JUST OUT! 👀 Insects from the '70s and '80s were already collecting microplastic, decades before the term microplastic even existed. 🤯 A thread on the surprising history of this pollutant and the incredible insect larvae that helped us uncover it. 🐛 Let's dive in! 🧵👇 1/x

Check out our new paper "Bioclimatic, terrain, and specific peatland composition are major drivers of woodland caribou winter habitat suitability in northern Ontario". I am grateful to have worked on this important topic with this amazing team! cdnsciencepub.com/doi/full/10....

I do not think most people in Canada realize the implications of cutting science funding in the USA. But the Great Lakes are shared waters- and as such we will share the cost of missing important information to keep water safe. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

ACTION ITEM I was chatting with a young scientist who expressed concern re the multiplicity of ongoing issues Over the course of our conversation, we arrived at the idea of a DASHBOARD where issues could be tracked If anyone is interested in helping with this (ideally with expertise) please DM me

Holy cow! What an awesome paper. The level of detail and concise writing on the impacts & responses of fisheries to different disruptions. It really exemplifies the complexities of managing these systems, underscoring the importance of NOAA 🐟🌊🧪 link.springer.com/article/10.1...
