Looking for a PhD? There is an opening for a PhD-student in evolutionary ecology on phenotypic plasticity in aquatic organisms at NTNU in Trondheim, Norway – with two super-good supervisors (Sigurd Einum and Tim Burton) - highly recommended! www.jobbnorge.no/en/available...
I am so proud of Rypel Lab alum Lauren Hitt for publishing this important paper in Ecosphere on Putah Creek salmon natality:

A press release was also published by @ucdavis.bsky.social on it this morning

New paper out! An analysis of recent advances and challenges in tag miniaturization. I had a good time drawing Figure 3 (see below). Small things can help ensure the tagged animals recover fully!

New paper🚨 ➡️
cdnsciencepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...
Graph with day of water year on the x-axis and count on the y axis, showing multimodal variation in the timing of fish migrating down from their natal habitat (shown in blue lines) and also variation in their timing of emigration (shown in gold lines)
Coho are typically thought to rear in their natal habitat for a year before migrating to sea. We found that many fish (44%) leave their natal habitat early and spend several months rearing in the lower portion of the creek before emigrating. (3/8)
Delighted to share our new paper in Ecology Letters:
Variation in Salmon Migration Phenology Bolsters Population Dynamics but is Threatened by Drought.

Great work by Karen Dunmall explaining our new paper on Pink salmon and range expansion, selected by ICES Journal of Marine Science as their Editor's Choice this week. Liking the video explainer that accompanies these papers.

Which exploitation strategy should be adopted for salmonid metapopulations? 🎣 Could knowledge of source-sink dynamics improve their management?
Our latest paper is just out!

Simulations results 📈 suggest being not selective as the best strategy 💡
Food for thought:
