Just out, Michael Nachman and 120 of the rest of us emphasize the continued need to add new specimens of whole organisms to the world's network of natural history collections. #PLOSBiology: https://t.co/xPwj7Zykhp
Basking sharks are what now?! New paper led by @haleydolton where we document regional endothermy in our favourite giant filter feeding sharky 🔥. Interesting implications for evolution and ecological advantages of regional endothermy; we thought it was only seen in apex 🦈&🐟1/3
Peter Wainwright has just won the Joseph Nelson award for a lifetime of achievement in ichthyology. So very cool. One of my earliest mentors at ASIH.

🌳✨Prepare to be amazed! Now, we can accurately map tree heights at a sub-meter scale for entire countries using aerial images and AI 🤖. Take a look at our tree height map of California, home to the tallest and largest tree species on our planet ✈️🌲🌎

Why might #fish in a #school swim behind one another? A🧵.This question arises because being behind another fish involves #swimming in faster flow. A cyclist can draft because oncoming velocity is reduced. A thrust wake is like a cyclist facing a leader with a large fan.
What tweetable #rstats function have you written recently to reduce duplication in your data analysis code? I'm looking for some inspiration as I re-write the functions chapter in R4DS.
Our first collaboration with @kenaley showing the kinematic swimming differences between normal and hypothyroid zebrafish!
Congrats to Pranav who contributed this first-author work as an undergrad in our lab!

We are happy and grateful to announce that @NSF has awarded MorphoSource a sustainability grant (DBI-2149257). Over 5 years, it will allow us to continue serving our diverse user communities and to help support exciting new scholarship achieved through access to 3D data!
I'm thrilled to announce that the first new edition of Methods for Fish Biology in thirty years is now available from the AFS bookstore. Twenty chapters on modern ichthyological techniques, including one by me and Peter Konstantinidis on fish curation. https://t.co/R8YTkOOX7B
A new open-access paper: phylogenomics and species delimitation in Black Bass, Micropterus from @DaeminKim3, @TaylorFishLab1, and me @yalepeabody
