How do we address rapid changes in fleet structure within integrated stock assessments? When is it necessary to represent sex-structured dynamics? Matt Cheng used Alaska sablefish and simulations to address these questions. See his @UAFcfos PhD defense on Monday 10/21 @ 1pm AK

Interested in climate change impacts on lake ice & juvenile salmon? Catch my talk Monday morning (9:30) in the remote sensing for global change session. Excited to attend my first National @AmFisheriesSoc conference! 🐟 #afs154

Alaska Sea Grant is excited to announce six new research projects, providing $1.2 million to support Alaska researchers and graduate students over the next two years. These projects address state and regional issues across Alaska. alaskaseagrant.org/2024/06/new-re…

Congratulations to @eeberhardt_ and @genoa_sully for your awards at the Alaska Chapter @AmFisheriesSoc meeting. Way to go!

Just in time to close the #otolith session at the #WFC2024, the awaited otolith #crochet vest! Once again, lots of amazing talks and discussions! 🐟

Let's talk about #periods while doing #fieldwork. How do you handle them? Tampons and ziploc bags? Menstrual cups? Period panties? Suppressing them? My inquiring mind wants to know... Breaking the menstruation taboo to make fieldwork more inclusive nature.com/articles/d4158…

Excited to share my second chapter, now out in Fisheries Research! Here, we explore the implications of explicitly modeling a pot fishery fleet within the Alaska sablefish stock assessment model, when usage of a new gear type rapidly increases. authors.elsevier.com/a/1iD0IbiU1zMlZ

Stay tuned as our lab's newest MS student @eeberhardt_ explores the story of sockeye and stickleback growth responses to climate variation

I am extremely excited to announce that 2 members of our lab are defending their M.S. theses this week! #rstats Lilian Hart - tomorrow Thurs. Oct. 12 @ 11:00am Alaska Tristan Sebens - Friday Oct. 13 @ 12:30pm AK Email fisheries@cfos.uaf.edu for the Zoom, or in person @ Lena 101

Graduate workers @UA_System often can't afford housing with indoor plumbing. If they can, they usually must spend 50% (or in some cases, 90%) of their income for the luxury of having their own shower! Graduate workers deserve better. We deserve to #peeinside. Vote YES!

Excited to have received my pen pal match for this year! @LettersPreSci

@Gauth_Charlotte This is AMAZING!

By far my most niche #crochet project so far.. But hey, i've now made an #otolith vest, and i think i love it. 💙

When you write a first-author paper for the first time

@BrianSidlauskas This is amazing!

Super proud of Ava Ivy, an undergrad working with me on the hidden diversity within Oregon’s native fishes. Over the past ten days she learned how to run the CT scanner at Friday Harbor Laboratories, generated dozens of scans, and even started helping to train others. Stay tuned!

Epic day with local hero @SturgeonHerman It was an honor!

@curious_smolt Salmincola californiensis maybe? Not sure what region this photo is from. @ReservoirWebs do you think?

@KapurMaia Epic advert!

Just sent my last letter to my @LettersPreSci pen pal! Such a great program to connect and share science with a student. Great program, highly recommend!

On a day when my waves resemble the gales of November, I ask... Does any one know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours? Rest in peace, Gordon Lightfoot, you will always have a place here. It's been good to know ya. 🙏🌊

The most precious sign-off from my STEM pen pal in their final letter to me. This made me smile, so I thought you all may appreciate it, too. 🥲 Also, STEM friends, consider being a pen pal with @LettersPreSci! It’s been such a fun and rewarding experience for me. :) #stemforall
