Kyle Leathers

Grad Student @ESPM_Berkeley with @Albert_Ruhi studying freshwater threats and aquatic insects

Special thanks to my coauthors for this PhD chapter: @Albert_Ruhi, @willydemendoza, David Herbst, and Gabriella Doerschlag, along with everyone else that has helped!

Does climate change-altered phenology affect ecosystem processes? We found that extended low flows mimicking future flow regimes change the phenology of aquatic invertebrates and the ecosystem processes they control at fine temporal scales. https://t.co/rlILFinNcD

Advanced emergence of Chironomidae taxa coincided with the nesting period of Brewer's Blackbirds, providing higher food availability during this critical period. Brewer's Blackbirds were even able to wade in early low flow channels and feed on larval aquatic invertebrates!

A new @PNASNews study led by @ESPM_Berkeley professor @Albert_Ruhi and graduate student @KyleWLeathers suggests that drought may reshape California's mountain waterways—and the ecosystems that depend on them—by the end of the century.

Highlight of the #freshwaterdownunder meeting was making great connections with members of @_NZFSS and @AusFreshwater

[Berkeley Environmental Science, Policy & Mngmt @ESPM_Berkeley]

High-elevation streams in the Sierra Nevada mountain range may be more vulnerable to droughts and heatwaves than previously thought, according to new research by @KyleWLeathers, @Albert_Ruhi, and @UofCalifornia researchers @safeeqkhan and David Herbst. https://t.co/TlGG8Uk5Xy

Thanks to @SeqParksCon for funding this work and @mark_scheuerell, Max Williams, Adan Gonzalez, Juliana Ruef, Aidan Grundy-Reiner, and Breanna Ruvalcaba for their help!

Will climate change make things too hot for stream invertebrates in the Sierra Nevada? Check out my first PhD paper with @Albert_Ruhi @safeeqkhan and David Herbst to see what we found! @aslo_org https://t.co/N0PDm5ypOc

#JASM22 ft. bug diets and climate change, many new connections, midwest weather, a graduation send-off AND my 22nd birthday celebration

[Kyle Leathers @KyleWLeathers]

Hey #JASM22! I'm presenting at 4:15 River Overlook E today on how climate change could lead to longer periods of low flow and changes in stream energy pathways in the Sierra Nevada.

A little birdie told me some species prefer low flows... Would love to chat!

[Kyle Leathers @KyleWLeathers]

@Albert_Ruhi is a great PI!

@DrAquaMatt @AGU_WQ @ecohydraulics @dipz08 @Hydrology_AGU Low flow goes so slow
no snow means faux flow below
Whoa! New status quo?
