Thank you, @bengoldfarb.bsky.social, for your balanced and well-written story on pink salmon in Sitka National Historical Park. It was a pleasure discussing our work with you. www.npca.org/articles/114...

The Pink Wave
A salmon run in an Alaskan park has exploded in recent years. Can a river have too many fish?

At the end of the term I asked my college creative wriing students to submit anonymous thoughts on AI. No real surprises: Mood ranges from resignation to despair, capitulation from embittered erosion of standards to total, feelings of betrayal from deep to furious. 1/

Limnologist here It's a bit funny [looking] Freshwater algae are typically phosphorus limited but that switches to nitrogen limitation as P ⬆️ (usually from humans) & the N:P ⬇️ below 16:1 (Redfield ratio). Many cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) can fix their own N & thus bloom in these conditions

Interesting. One of my grad students had their abstract declined as well because of a presumed lack of methods.

Hi, sorry to be a bother, but could fellow #SACNAS members point me to a resource or policy when an abstract review (for a presentation) may have been generated by AI? My friend is in esteemed graduate student in neuroscience but had their abstract flatly rejected, but the review makes no sense.

I re-made Glider some years back for MacOS/iOS. It broke at some point (perhaps an Apple change for Retina displays?) so I pulled it from the App Store. (Claude looked at the code—found some minor coordinate issues. Thanks!) Glider Classic for MacOS is back on. apps.apple.com/us/app/glide...

If you ask a US govt employee who is currently furloughed, "How's your 'vacation'?" You might get a deadpan response like this: "Never better. I just finished writing the third book of my new fantasy trilogy, I've mastered Mandarin, and tomorrow I'm running off with the circus." #HaveSomeEmpathy
