Amazing opportunity to study one of the coolest fishes on the planet, with an amazing group @jeanseb_moore @Matt_JH_Gilbert @bm_hamilton @NBFurey and in the wonderful community of Cambridge Bay. Fun/novel data to explore and freedom to design multi-year studies. Check out the ad!

Excited to have our recent field study out & on the cover of @J_Exp_Biol ! We demonstrate that warm acclimation of heart rate and temperature tolerance can occur rapidly in wild migrating Arctic char. Done w/ a great team: @middletonella6 @invivoexvivo @jeanseb_moore @HarrisLes

Issue 17 has closed. journals.biologists.com/jeb/… The cover image shows an Arctic char, which are capable of resetting their heart rates after 3 days of warm acclimation to help counteract warming. This plasticity may help migratory fish to overcome the impacts of high temperatures

The first of two papers on the thermal acclimation potential of Arctic char is now out! This one was done at @ZoologyUBC and is focused on cardiac heat tolerance in the context of a rapidly warming Arctic. sciencedirect.com/science/ar… @FishSciBot #arcticscience #fishsci

Meet the fishes of FISHES! Regional variation in which species we study reflects the regional importance of each species for our local partners and their affiliated #subsistence, #recreational, and #commercial fisheries. We love them all; what is your favourite?

Nice job @Matt_JH_Gilbert! His PhD work recently featured in a @NunatsiaqNews article highlighting his work on Arctic char thermal limits and performance. Looking forward to the next stage. @jeanseb_moore @invivoexvivo

Excited to have my @ZoologyUBC PhD thesis work covered by the @NunatsiaqNews ! Check out the Article for a summary of some of my work done with @jeanseb_moore @HarrisLes & supported by @ArcticFocus @POLARCanada @ACUNSAUCEN @NSERC_CRSNG nunatsiaq.com/stories/articl…

Rising water temperatures pose risks to Arctic char: new research

Arctic char, the most northerly freshwater fish on the planet, may struggle to survive as the polar climate warms, five years of research in western Nunavut suggests.
