🚨NEW PUBLICATION OUT! “Symbiotic diazotrophic UCYN-A strains co-occurred with El Niño, relaxed upwelling, and varied eukaryotes over 10 years off Southern California” 🙃

With co authors Liv Yeh, Yubin Raut, @jlw_ecoevo @JedFuhrman 1/
And on a personal note, this passion project got me thru some really dark times during quarantine. So grateful for the privilege of doing science 🥹💕🧬🌊🦠
Through these conversations I’ve learned so much I never thought I would - network science, protist biology, ENSO + currents, sparse binomial logistical regression- and wrote 10k lines in R!

The paper presents
1. Abiotic factors that shape UCYN-A presence/ absence in the San Pedro Ocean Time-series (ENSO + relaxed upwelling)
2. Co occurrence data with eukaryotes, including potential predator Lepidodinium
3. Co occurrence data btwn A1 & A2 hosts and symbionts
