Congratulations to Allison Dennert for winning the J. Stan Rowe Award for the best paper published by a student in the field of Ecology or Conservation. sfu.ca/biology/news-e…

My colleagues and I's efforts to examine marine noise pollution and document global soniferous fishes were covered by the The Globe and Mail This research was made possible by Liber Ero Fellows DFO Pacific NSERC / CRSNG SFU Science UniversityOfVictoria Isabelle M Côté MERIDIAN FishSounds

Excellent cover by the The Globe and Mail of Kieran Cox, Ph.D Claire Attridge Bridget Maher Isabelle M Côté FishSounds and ours ongoing research into marine soundscapes 🌊🔊 Special thanks to UVic Research NSERC / CRSNG Liber Ero Fellows and DFO Pacific for their support!

We are stilling look for new people to join our team at UVIC. The applications for the coordinator position have been extended to Sep 1! Check out the postings: juaneslab.weebly.com/news/we-are-hi…

Check out this compelling The Globe and Mail coverage on research from Kieran Cox, Ph.D and team! Lots to be curious about in the world of marine sound 🐟🔊

Are most species rare? How many species are out there? Our paper on "Unveiling global species abundance distributions " is out today in #openaccess NatureEcoEvo. A thread🧵 1/# iDiv Biodiversity Research Universität Halle Corey Callaghan

Thinking more about subsurface ocean temperatures! ♨️ "...marine heatwaves at depth can actually be more intense and last longer compared to the surface"

Non-native mudsnails are found hosting native barnacles where the weight of the epibiont can exceeds the weight of the snail itself... a form of biotic resistance perhaps? New paper out now! 🐌 doi.org/10.1007/s10530… SFU Biological Sciences Isabelle M Côté Hannah Watkins

Thrilled to share this summary of our work exploring the kelp forests of Barkley Sound! 🌱 Stunning photos by Shane Gross really capture the beauty of these systems and the research efforts of our team.

I've been sharing this paper over and over again with colleagues as I've found it to be a VERY helpful way to frame a research project to ensure your statistical models reflect project goals (e.g., inference vs. prediction). Definitely worth the read! esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Join our team! We're hiring a full-time Research Assistant to help with our kelp restoration and blue carbon research in partnership with The Kelp Rescue Initiative and bluecarboncanada.ca Job ad posted here: juliakbaum.org/join-us Pls RT #ecosystemrestoration #naturalclimatesolutions

What does the fish say? Science News covered our efforts to find out. Story by McKenzie Prillaman and Science News Research made possible by Liber Ero Fellows NSERC / CRSNG Fisheries and Oceans SFU Science UniversityOfVictoria and many more sciencenews.org/wp-content/upl…

How effective are #MPAs for conserving #kelp #forests? Our perspective shows they can help with some drivers of loss like grazing, but often fail to protect against ocean warming and coastal darkening - 2 main reasons we are losing kelp forests globally! doi.org/10.1111/jpy.13…

What is the status of #kelp forests on the west coast of Canada? In our new OA collaborative Marine Ecology Progress Series (MEPS) paper, we show that it varies both a lot across the province. Some regions have seen large declines (but with refugia), others are very stable. int-res.com/abstracts/meps…

Ocean scientists, come join me, Amanda Bates, Natalie Ban, Loren McClenachan and more @UVic!! Research Chair position now open in Marine Ecosystems and Global Change 🌊 🇨🇦 🌊 uvic.ca/faculty-staff/… Pls RT.

Recent #marinheatwaves and seastar declines led to #kelpforest losses along parts of North America’s west coast. But B.C.'s massive coastline and lack of comprehensive monitoring program made it difficult to assess the impacts here. Until now. 1/2 theconversation.com/why-some-of-br…
