@PatagoniaAqua I believe it is Ascomorpha!

Some rotifers that I photographed from our mesocosm samples made it on the cover of the Hydrobiologia special issue (Zooplankton under Multiple Stressors) that our article is contained in! ✨ Check out the special issue here: https://t.co/0JesP6FmU4

My first first-author paper is officially published! 🎉🎉 This was a team effort and could not have been possible without my wonderful coauthors! The article can be accessed at https://t.co/WiEdAZSWtn and will be part of @HYDR_Springer's SI "Zooplankton Under Multiple Stressors"

We discuss how trade-offs between predation risk, food availability, and stressful env. conditions over space and time may be driving the diverse behaviors that we see. Check out the paper (https://t.co/WiEdAZSWtn) and reach out with comments/questions [email protected]!

Happy Halloween! I carved a Great Lakes + Lake Champlain pumpkin (though not quite to scale, haha) for our department’s pumpkin carving contest! 🎃

@Eco_Butts @duffy_ma Omg so cute! 🎀 What depth(s) were they collected from? Could it be hemoglobin production? Otherwise I would guess a parasite

[Anna Schmidt @nna_schmidt]

@Micro_Rachel Beautiful! 😊

[Anna Schmidt @nna_schmidt]

And of course had lots of fun checking out some of the resident creatures 💚

[Anna Schmidt @nna_schmidt]

Had a wonderful trip down to the @caryinstitute last week to meet up with our @GLEONetwork @NASA Lake Expedition cohort (+ @car0line0 @DexterHoward77 @JansenS_Lara remotely) to make progress on our manuscript! 🛰️🌊

@ikpemosi_ @bia_possamai @dvm_uvm A colony of Pediastrum (a genus of green algae) surrounded by lots of filamentous diatoms!

[Anna Schmidt @nna_schmidt]

Beautiful diversity of plankton collected from Schuyler Reef in Lake Champlain this week! 🔬 @bia_possamai @dvm_uvm

[Anna Schmidt @nna_schmidt]

@ikpemosi_ @bia_possamai @dvm_uvm Yep you’re right! :)
