Just out in #AustralEcology with @lib_lig et al. Functional changes in NZ fishes are structured primarily by depth then latitude. Shallow functional bioregions were distinct across latitude, whereas deeper bioregions extend across broad latitudinal ranges. https://t.co/lZRlIhMHT8

Excited to be a part of this team!

Disentangling physical-biological oceanographic processes in the Rangitāhua/Kermadec region. PhD project working with me, @AliDrifting + @Deni_ocean starting early 2023. Supporting Ngāti Kuri-led research with Auckland Museum @KuriNgati @aucklandmuseum

Great to be involved in this collab between uni/industry looking at the composition and distribution of deep-water fishes in a submarine canyon-valley off NW Australia using ROV.

@WhatsthatfishNZ @thekermadecs some other ways we keep track of what fishes live where. Nice work @odettehowarth and @Lizzy_Myers_ #bruv

[Libby Liggins @lib_lig]

With similarities and some differences to changes in phylogenetic diversity. https://t.co/BiXj5KZoS2

🐟Our new #OA paper with @lib_lig et al in @Ecol_Evol (2nd from my PhD) about high functional diversity in deep-sea fish communities in #NZ, and a new way to partition functional variation into intra- and interspecific components using PERMANOVA #TeamFish

Happy to celebrate #WorldOceansDay attending the website launch for the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development at parliament.

[Elisabeth Myers @Lizzy_Myers_]

I was very proud to graduate from @MasseyUni last week with a PhD in Statistics. A huge thanks to my family, friends & wonderful supervisors Marti Anderson, David Eme, @lib_lig, Clive Roberts and Euan Harvey. #TeamFish #deepsea #museumresearch #traits

[Elisabeth Myers @Lizzy_Myers_]

#PhinisheD my PhD titled "Functional biodiversity of New Zealand's marine fishes versus depth and latitude" three weeks ago today! A huge thank you to my wonderful supervisors, friends and family for all of your support over the years!

[Natural Sciences at Massey @NatSciMassey]

Congratulations to Lizzy Myers (@Lizzy_Myers_) who successfully completed her PhD oral examination today, with the recommendation by the examiners of a PASS with no emendations!

[Elisabeth Myers @Lizzy_Myers_]

My PhD research is featured by @AlbanyBiology this week. Check them out for a look at some of the awesome work going on at Massey University - Albany!

[Natural Sciences at Massey @NatSciMassey]

Today we are featuring the research of Lizzy Myers (Te Rarawa) (@Lizzy_Myers_), who studies deep-sea fishes.
Understanding how biodiversity varies along large gradients such as depth or latitude is a key question in ecology. See 🧵👇 for details

[Dr. Kelsi Rutledge @fishandfreckles]

Shrimpfish are the rebels of the sea. New research published in @iobopen highlights their strange swimming mode of orienting head down and explains how they are designed to do so. Read more about it here:

A bit of fun diving with @syngnathids spotting visitors last week up in Whangaroa, Northland, NZ.

[Graham Short @syngnathids]

Awesome fish survey of the area around beautiful Whangaroa in the Northland of New Zealand. I observed three tropical visitors in the same dive site, one of which was a juvenile individual of the Indo-Pacific #wrasse Thalassoma lutescens being harassed for a clean. @Lizzy_Myers_

[Elisabeth Myers @Lizzy_Myers_]

I used rotenone for the first time today in the place that I grew up in, at a beach I've been to countless times, with this awesome group of scientists! #fishBothering

[Adam P. Summers @Fishguy_FHL]

#fishBothering with @sygnathids, @Lizzy_Myers_ , @TanikaCShalders @DeBrauwerM

We caught a bit of diversity. How many can you ID?
