@freshwaterscience.bsky.social never disappoints! Location, people, research... amazing!! Thank you to all committees, sponsors, volunteers, etc. for another great SFS.

What an incredible week it was of freshwater ecology at the #2025SFS conference in San Juan, PR!

Thank you @freshwaterscience.bsky.social

I had the wonderful opportunity to present my research on the drivers of macroinvertebrate taxa & functional traits in vernal ponds at the annual @freshwaterscience.bsky.social meeting this past week! I hope everyone who joined “Club Pond” had a wonderful time 😊

Spent an exciting week in San Juan, PR at the #2025SFS Conference! I gave a talk on the ecological drought research I am conducting as a #postdoc at SDSU. I left PR feeling really inspired by some awesome #science. Thanks @freshwaterscience.bsky.social!

Prior to #SFS2025, I was honored to meet one of Puerto Rico’s most eminent freshwater experts, the common coquí (Eleutherodactylus coqui) 😍🐸
