Spatial + resource ecology is challenging to quantify in wild animals, especially marine fish. Our new @JAppliedEcology paper combines telemetry and isotopes to generate a resource isoscape to help inform habitat + fisheries management in Florida Keys https://t.co/zbcu4Oli8F

@Top100Rick Although I’m obviously nowhere near as good, my yardages are super similar to Si Woo’s, throughout the whole bag. PW 135, driver 297. I don’t know exactly why, but I don’t really try to swing my high irons very hard. They’re accuracy clubs. I don’t need them to go far.

Real scientists watching Claude code try to write, assess, refine a complicated multi step analytical workflow from very specific guidance (for now)

@NUCLRGOLF @golfnjokes 2 is in my pocket (to be lost on the next par 3) 4 is perfect

Beyond the hook: do angler-fish interactions in a catch-and-release recreational fishery modify fish space use and catchability?

New toy in my lab @FishOceansCAN, bomb calorimeter. Hit us up if you’re interested in measuring fish energy density 💪

@thecavedaddy Because with our economic systems, the rich get exceedingly wealthy, sucking too much money out of the system, driving inflation, reducing capacity to support societal goals

@NUCLRGOLF @shortgamekin Taxed? No. Untaxed? Would think about it but also no

What are the effects of tagging on fishes?

Our review + meta-analysis explores intracoelomic tagging effects in fishes. We summarize the existing literature and examine the 2% rule using evidence from a broad representation of all published studies.

Now published open access in @cjfas. This one is for you nerds who like swim tunnel respirometry and accelerometer tags.

Led by @TrentUResearch MSc student @ErinRitchiee, work done at CCIW with @sci_angler from 2021-23.

Thanks to @LampreyControl for funding.

⭐ Researcher Highlight ⭐

Dr. Jacob Brownscombe (@sci_angler), Research Scientist at @FishOceansCAN, is shaping the future of freshwater science in the Great Lakes region. 🌊🐟

His research uses a unique blend of telemetry, accelerometry, and machine learning to model habitats for species like walleye, largemouth bass, and at-risk silver shiner. He recently received the 2025 Stevenson Lectureship Award for his creative early-career endeavors. Keep up the fantastic work! 🎉
