Thanks @amfisheriessoc.bsky.social for recognizing the potential importance of our latest research! Noisy hatcheries are a concern for fish. Also maybe for fisheries biologists! Still need to study that part.

Dear Journalists (and everyone), Please, remember that we are in the "post-truth" era, and that "fact sheet" is a debatable description. Yours truly, 1984

Sometimes its best to skip the political mayhem and just chill. Learning from this adorable axolotl!

Hey science and scicomm folks! What are you doing now to promote trust in science and positive science messaging? How are you using scicomm for good in these challenging times? Looking for real ideas, not snark, no matter how much snark is fitting right now!

If we totally fix the threat to coral reefs from sunscreen chemicals, but do not address climate change, we are going to lose coral reefs. If we totally fix climate change but do not address sunscreen, coral reefs will thrive. Sunscreen is simply not that big of a threat to coral reefs.

I love apples...and climate change is impacting their production, particularly in Washington State. Alarming new study from my friend and colleague Deepti Singh.

Pineapple for the win! Who knew they had so many chromosomes? But fish are the real winners here due to the whole genome duplication during their evolution.

I just read this article in the @chronicle.com about how academia could deal with abusive mentors. The author suggests nuance; separating the person from the scholarship (where possible). Thoughts? For academics, how do your departments deal with problem mentors? www.chronicle.com/article/what...

What Do We Do With Monstrous Mentors?

It’s time for a reckoning.
