A collaboration between @GET_Hg @LemarLab@UMREntropie
Thrilled to finally see this work published! It was a lot of hard work, but made so much easier and enjoyable with an amazing team of authors. Grateful for the collaboration and proud of what we've achieved together!

Congratulations to @Lucien_Besnard for a wonderful dissertation defense discussing his work using stable isotopes (N, C, Hg) as proxies for measuring shark movement ecology, trophic interactions, & more. Very impressive visuals that distill complex topics into digestible tidbits.

Climate change is expected to impact Hg cycling and exposure. New @EnvSciTech study by @renedo_marina and David Point @GET_Hg &co finds no link between ENSO and sea bird Hg in Peruvian Upwelling Zone.

We are recruiting a post-doc to investigate the ecological role of sharks. Experience with large datasets and modelling skills are a major asset. Come and work with myself and @MikeHeithaus at FIU! @FIUCASE https://t.co/FuWhdGBcqk
@martinjiskra and @LarsEric_Hg lead our new @Nature study on the #mercury isotope composition of sea water. Turns out the ocean isotope fingerprint looks more like gaseous Hg(0) than rainfall Hg(II) https://t.co/6QEj69PLaT

I am really happy to share my (first) first author publication: "Foraging depth depicts resource partitioning and contamination level in a pelagic #shark assemblage: insights from #mercury stable #isotopes" (@LeCroizier@GSchaal_UBO)

As top predators, White Sharks can accumulate chemical toxins from their prey. @LeCroizier and colleagues looked at the dietary origin of mercury in NE Pacific White Sharks and found most of it comes from the oceanic twilight zone. #ElasmoScienceSunday https://t.co/kAopPkon6t
New paper out, a study masterfully carried out by @LeCroizier. Mercury contamination in great white sharks is linked to intense foraging on deep water sources.

Authors of this study show that porbeagle sharks modify dive behavior seasonally and in response to hurricanes, suggesting different environmental preferences determine habitat use and behavior over time.
