OUT NOW🎉our review on the impact of turbidity on the predator-prey interactions of freshwater🐟!
In a landscape of fast-changing env conditions, we hope this review will help anyone new to the field & those seeking direction for further experimentation👇

We need more holistic, ecologically relevant studies to
- uncover how prey species adapt (or fail to) in increasingly turbid water, and
- reveal the impacts of reduced predation from apex predators (piscivorous🐟), in light of turbidity-tolerant species & multiple env stressors.

This review confirms strong biases in the research: Most studies focus on commercially/scientifically important species in temperate zones, leaving gaps in understanding turbidity effects on diverse freshwater ecosystems globally.

@DanSmale1 Good to see Crackle & Wilma inspiring civic duty. Best thing about going to vote? May meet cute dogs ✌️

@Louise_Firth_IE Aw thank you! This whole project sure was the highlight of the PhD, so pleased for it to be out in the wild 😁

And BIG Thank You to the lovely ppl at Hacienda Jacana in Talparo, who looked after us in 2022 (go stay with them if you visit the island!).
And to all the welcoming Trinidadians who offered us fruit, drinks, help and a good chat while sampling 🙌

[Costanza Zanghí @CosZan]

Finally, I'd like to thank @RenoirJAuguste & @DungeonsandBas for their help with the pilot field-work in 2020 as the covid-19 pandemic broke out, follow that adventure here https://t.co/lLteXGYji7

And so it begins! @C_C_Ioannou 's group #TriniBreak2020
I'll try to keep you all posted on how I get on during my first #phd field season!
We've got great #fishSci planned w #behavioural in-field observations, #eDNA sampling & lots of env. variables to record!
