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 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

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? 👥 @lucaspgriffin et al. 📚 University of South Florida, @KeepFishWet and other partners ➡️ ow.ly/UpZE50VifEe

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

Why is everyone so against a flat tax for everyone ? 5% across the board, no tax codes to help someone cheat, nothing else. You just pay 5% whether you make $1000 or $10,000,000,000.

@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. Preprint link below 🧵

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.

@Innovasea @FishOceansCAN Hey thanks! I’ll do my best. Fortunate to work with a lot of great people, including staff @Innovasea

⭐ 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! 🎉 #FishTracking #GreatLakes #EcosystemScience

@BowmanJacob_ @erinmcstewart @graham_raby Man I love a good stream

It was a pleasure to be Erin's research assistant on this project in 2021! Here are some of the amazing and variable streams we visited during our fieldwork.
