This shorts user guide is a useful first step for catchment and environmental managers eager to address eutrophication and associated impacts on their watercourse. It covers some of the essential science, how to apply it and how Atomic Ecology can help.

Nitrate | Atomic Ecology Isotopic approaches to nitrate measurements and management

Europe has a nitrate problem - essential to our agriculture but harmful to freshwater and coastal habitats, nitrate pollution has become fact of life. Isotopes have a huge, but largely untapped, potential to identify point sources of nitrate and also estimate where that nitrate originated.

Yes! We spend so much time using these tools for our research its hard to figure out why everyione else isnt using them too! Implications / opportunities for IsoBank here aswell.....

The advantages are multiple and costs are mdoest, whether characterising diet, habitat use or intra-specific variability, isotope based metrics provide robust information on the mechanics underpinning valuable stocks and fisheries.

At a workshop last week, a couple of colleagues and I started discussing why stable isotope based approaches so prevalent in academic research are rarely seen in applied fishery management.

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.

I am looking for a new job! I am one of the federal public servants whose position is being discontinued as part of the government-wide expenditure review. If you know of opportunities to work in marine and fisheries ecology, let your girl know. www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-boudreau-9114a93a7

Starting the journey home from a wonderful week at CESAB in Montpellier. Science, discussion, new friends, a whole lotnof isotopes and maybe even a beer or three. So pleased that I dint have to get back to the Maritimes this time round!

Shark Biology and Ecology Online Course โ€” Center for Wildlife Studies

There are just a few weeks left to sign up for my Center for Wildlife Studies "biology and ecology of sharks" online course, which you can take for transfer credit or just to learn something.

There's an optional 3-day field research experience in additon to the online lectures and assignments!

Very cool work Eric! Not sure if it has been done before but combining with isotopes to assess seasonal shifts in productivity associated with DNA abundance could be neat.... I have some (as yet unpublished) SIA data from eastern Canada showing similar patterns in streams there...

I'm delighted to be joined by Dr. Sora Kim (UC Merced, USA) for the first of these. Sora kindly agreed to spend an hour or so chatting isotope science with me before Christmas and Im excited to share our conversation as soon
