🌿 World Wetlands Day 🌿 Through the Wetland Regional Monitoring Program, our Fish & Fish Habitat Team tracks how restored and natural tidal wetlands support fish communities over time—providing the science needed to evaluate restoration success and guide future management. #WorldWetlandsDay #WRMP

Flow effects are non-stationary: continue to be positive but are weakening, and highly habitat-specific. Big implications for env. flows & adaptive management. Great team w/ @fishteph.bsky.social & @jimhobbsphd.bsky.social! Thanks to @deltacouncil.bsky.social @swc-cawater.bsky.social for funding 🐟

Back in the Alviso Marsh today collecting Longfin Smelt for the broodstock program. Always incredible to see this tiny estuarine native up close—and to be part of the effort to help the species recover. 🌿🐟

Our team was out sampling fish and habitat in the restored tidal wetlands of Eden Landing — one of the South Bay’s largest restoration in the bay #WRMP #FishAndHabitat #SanFranciscoBay #EdenLanding #WetlandRestoration #SouthBay #UCDFishLab #OGFL #SFEI #TidalMarsh #FishInTheBay

Out in the field today! 💧 The #OGFL crew is lending a hand to our partners #SFEI keeping water-quality monitoring running in the Lower South Bay despite the federal shutdown. Collaboration keeps the science going! #SanFranciscoEstuary

“I have to be hopeful… that our grandchildren will see we did everything we could.” Christina Parker shares how she’s helping native fish survive climate extremes in CA. 🎥 Watch her story + the full #TomorrowsCatch series here: contentwithpurpose.co.uk/afs/tomorrow...

Happy estuaries week. Unfortunately I’m going n the office analyzing data. #estuaries

We were out at Wildcat Creek Marsh today sampling fishes for the #WRMP catch was light but found some favorites

I’m out on the Napa Marsh today helping @janousekwild.bsky.social conduct plant surveys for the Wetland Regional Monitoring Program

🌊🐟 It’s Baby Fish Month in the Bay! May is booming with tiny silversides, gobies, and smelt in our latest #FishInTheBay update from the WRMP Fish & Habitat Team ➡️ www.ogfishlab.com/2025/05/08/f... #SFBay #EstuaryScience

I’m looking forward to catching up with my fishy colleagues tomorrow for @calnevaafs.bsky.social workshop. ticketstripe.com/AFSWorkshop

On the train to Oakland for the Sacramento Republic match against the Oakland Roots.

“Fish in the Bay” – March 2025 (Part 2): From halibut to baby gobies, and the buggy critters they dine on — we’re diving into what’s lurking at the bottom of the South Bay. Catch up on the latest findings from our monthly trawls and see what spring is stirring up beneath the surface!

More Clear Lake Hitch - Chi to the local Tribes, a keystone cultural species - making their way up Alley Creek in Upper Lake! #Spawn #Fisheries #Fish Rain is on the way again tomorrow for the next week or so which will make their journey more difficult (higher flows, more turbid). Swim lil minnows!

Longfin Smelt spawning in the Alviso Marsh (Oz). Could this be due to the Anderson Dam decommissioning? A little flow goes a long ways in Oz. #cawater #TeamFish #SFE www.ogfishlab.com/2025/03/17/f...

In December the #ogfishlab @wfcbucdavis.bsky.social was out in Suisun Marsh looking for Longfin Smelt for the culture and conservation of the species #CAwater #TeamFish www.ogfishlab.com/2025/03/10/f...

Is the “god squad” coming for the #deltasmelt? www.theguardian.com/environment/...

California halibut are thriving in San Francisco Bay. Here is an adult fish caught this morning in Lower South Bay. Also been seeing lots of juveniles this winter.

Trump’s latest Exec. Order assaults California’s ability to safeguard its water & wildlife for the public. Governor Newsom must help LA recover quickly, while defending our clean water, wildlife, & vulnerable communities from Trump's radical anti-environmental agenda. @governornewsom.bsky.social

I’m attending the @calnevaafs.bsky.social executive committee annual retreat today.

Was out this week in the Alviso Marsh to collect Longfin Smelt for UC Davis culture program. Weather was waaaaay too nice for January.

If you’re a federal govt employee targeted for leave or termination on the basis of your DEI work, please file an EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity) complaint & retain legal counsel. I’m a former NIH PI. Happy to refer you to a law firm that has successfully sued the govt many times! Pls repost 🙏❤️

A new proposal for Longfin Smelt habitat doesn't go far enough, as our science director @jarosenfield.bsky.social explains: "Smelt require abundant flow of fresh water from the Central Valley rivers through the Delta to SF Bay. That's the one thing they respond to." www.eenews.net/articles/fed...

Happy New Years from the Fish in the Bay. May 2025 bring us more Longfin Smelt. #CAWater www.ogfishlab.com/2024/12/23/f...

How much sampling does it take to represent large fish communities in the Delta? A lot! journal.wildlife.ca.gov/2024/12/27/e...

Today I am the Bodega Marine Lab to check out the Longfin Smelt culture lab.

My account got hijacked. Anyone else have this problem? I logged on yesterday and all of a sudden I was somebody else.
