Are you or someone you know looking for a funded MS or PhD position in freshwater ecology starting August 2025? Consider applying to work with me & collaborate on a project linking river oxygen dynamics with freshwater biodiversity. More info/how to apply: hotchkisslab.com/opportuniti…
ALT Conceptual diagram showing our funded research plan, from ecosystem ecology to population and organismal ecology, focused on understanding the influence of climate change and deforestation on reach/microhabitat biogeochemistry, hellbender population density and age structure, and individual hellbender fitness and behavior (parental self-care vs. self-maintenance, cannibalism). Images show reach-scale river microhabitats that support fish, mussels, and hellbenders with dissolved oxygen sensors deployed at the stream bottom and within the water column; different ages of hellbenders in a population; different life stages of hellbenders; and predictive plots for how dissolved oxygen will vary over space and time due to respiration, declines in population density and increasing % of old adults with cannibalism, the trade-off between self-maintenance and parental care with changes in dissolved oxygen due to predicted increases in cannibalism with decreasing oxygen levels.

Con alegría comparto el enlace a un artículo en que soy co-autor con @biogeobob. El artículo es sobre el efecto de la dispersión de insectos acuáticos en los ensambles neotropicales. Es parte de un número de Biodiversidad de América Central.

Interested in rivers? I teach Stream Ecology at Flathead Lake Bio Station @FLBSUM 15-26 July. Course centers on a 4-day river trip on the Middle Fork Flathead. There will be data analysis using R, whitewater, and lots of mayflies. flbs.umt.edu/apps/education/…

1/3 Our paper is finally out! Major hurricanes altered the use of food resources by stream consumers. This was evidenced by a shift in isotopic signature, from leaf litter to algae. esajournals.onlinelibrary.wi…
Attending ESA #ESA2023 in Portland? Come on a beer tour of three excellent breweries on Wednesday 5:45 pm. This self-supported tour will involve ~1.5 h of walking and lots of lagers (my current brewing interest). All welcome. Sign up here forms.gle/TFyWy4PxugC45KjV9
SFS beer tour is off to a fun start at Soapbox Beer. Excellent rice lager. Next stop: Valley Hops. @BenthosNews
Still time to sign up for Stream Ecology at Flathead Lake Bio Station this summer! Hands on learning from mayflies to metabolism during a 4-day float of the Middle Fork Flathead River.

Food web efficiency determines the energy transferred from 🌱 to 🐟. Environmental conditions, including disturbance regime, more strongly limit efficiency in desert streams than controls identified in mesocosms

A humanitarian and environmental mess. My brother (interviewed in the first part of this show) and I estimated that the water use from these grows is roughly equal to all of Sept. flow in the Illinois River.
