#OnThisDay in 1859, Charles Darwin's landmark book 'On the Origin of Species' was first published. The work is one of the foundations of evolutionary biology, and one of the most important scientific works of the 19th century. #HistoryOfScience

Great to see new work lead by @pjflood.bsky.social out in @globalchangebio.bsky.social this week. Another piece from our collaboration with @michigandnr.bsky.social examining recently digitized historical lake survey data.

Screen cap from the beginning of a paywalled Detroit News article titled “Federal Layoffs would gut Great Lakes fisheries research center.” Posted in Oct 20, 2025 at 9:25pm and written by Melissa Nann Burke. It reads “Washington - the U. S. Geological Survey is planning to lay off 79% of the workforce of the Great Lakes Science Center that’s headquartered in Ann Arbor as part of a reduction in force across the U.S Department of the Interior, officials say.”
www.detroitnews.com/story/news/p...
79% will leave behind no science staff.

Colleagues in ocean science academia: 🧪🦑🌎
I am working on the section of my marine biology career advice book about applying to graduate school. I have lots to say here from both my own experience and years of teaching this stuff, but I’d welcome your input on any or all of this if you’re willing.

NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP)
NSF GRFP is out 2.5 months late w/key changes
1. 2nd year graduate students not eligible.
2. "alignment with Administration priorities"
3. Unlike prior years, they DO NOT specify the expected number of awards... that is a BIG problem.

A photo of a man in a cap holding the line on which is a very bright orange Nurse Shark ( a very flat, bottom feeding shark that is no threat to humans) in this photo you can clearly see the silver/white eye of the animal.
A photo of a man in a cap holding the line on which is a very bright orange Nurse Shark ( a very flat, bottom feeding shark that is no threat to humans) in this photo the angle is a lot higher, showing the entire body of the shark from above water.
Babe, wake up - Xanthochromic nurse shark just dropped..
Caught by some sport fishermen out near Costa Rica (and released after some photos were snapped)

Insects from the '70s and '80s were already collecting microplastic, decades before the term microplastic even existed. 🤯
