Still a nice full room today for our 48th Larval Fish Conference in Québec City. Céline Audet start the day with a broad keynote address on her larvae rearing experiment. @amfisheriessoc.bsky.social @uqar.bsky.social

42 with 10 traps, they were the dominant species there. Seen also a single nine-spines and some lake chubs.

A little treat today with a morning out of the office, sampling Threespine sticklebacks in Kenogamie lake with students of the lab. Great success and weather! They will be used in a great project with @ecoevoevoeco.bsky.social, @gehaines.bsky.social & many more!

Parallels and discrepancies between non‐native species introductions and human migration Biological invasions and human migrations have increased globally due to socio-economic drivers and environmental factors that have enhanced cultural, economic, and geographic connectivity. Both proc...

Au génie!

Striking example of the large, longterm and pervasive impacts of plastic pollution, using a small freshwater stream engineer; the caddisfly larvae, brilliant work!

Super happy to see our new article on how pharmaceutical pollution can influence salmon migration out in @science.org!

This was a huge effort by a great team of researchers over the last few years!

You can read the paper here: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…!

May be I should do this... 😅

C'est parti pour #lesChefs, des candidats d'expérience. Y'a pas de verts dans ce défi de verdure.

“De-extinction” is to biodiversity loss what “Mars colonization” is to climate change—wishful thinking that is at its core impossible but nevertheless sucks up attention and resources from actual solutions to these crises (which, ultimately, might be the whole point)

Of course @bradhowell.bsky.social have to be mentionned in this study, sorry did not find your handle firsthand!

I read this article when it came out, very good! Buried rivers always have fascinated and puzzled me. I hope some will freed at some point.

El estado 32 😅

So we should respond to 51st state movement by the 11th province? Interesting take🙂

Seeing young and good scientists like @lizrenner.bsky.social layed off like this is so heartbreaking, I hope things will improve soon...
