Friendly reminder from a colorblind scientist, think about the message your figures convey. Friends don't let friends use stoplight color pallets.

Up to 10 grams? I am going to need a mean and confidence intervals to really get to the bottom of this data.

Damn these colorblind eyes of mine.

Undergrad led research paper from my lab with help our pals at Baruch Marine Field Laboratory! For anyone who wants some new and/or updated weight-length relationships on fish and inverts from US South Atlantic region!

I wish there was a better umbrella term other than restoration that encompassed habitat modifications like rehabilitation, habitat construction, out planting, etc. so we can be done with the semantics issues. I get annoyed when people call sinking a ship for fish habitat restoration, but meh.

hey everyone! i made a list of some useful starter packs (primarily biology/earth sciences with a few bonus things thrown in) to share with friends who have joined bsky in the last week and thought it may be useful for some people here too! 🌍🧪 #SciSky #BioSky docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I am afraid to visit the Caribbean coral reefs I dove as a teenager because of the eco-grief that would inevitably consume me

Huh, look at that.

No, it was tried but it didn't get published (cited in paper), from what I understand there was a lot of un-IDed contents, possibly because they often feed at night. But inverts, insects, etc. is a good guess.

We published this year on them, they shock up real easy! link.springer.com/article/10.1...

We need a good old fashion red-to-green/stoplight color heat map for counties here for the colorblind.
