New paper led by Dr. Richards! 58 micronekton species were used for #isotopeecology to understand deep-pelagic trophic structure in the Gulf of Mexico. Full paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.poce… @AggiesByTheSea @DeptMarb @fishesarefrandz photos by @DanteFenolio
New Paper! 🦈🎣 We used PSAT and acceleration data to infer recreationally caught post-release mortality among coastal Texas sharks. Thanks to our great team of collaborators: @unetweets @DrNickWhitney @ConnorFWhite @MarcusDrymon @GregStunz @IslandCampus tinyurl.com/yrfdavz2
New Paper!🦈This international team of collaborators lead by Dr. Mohan @unetweets used stable isotopes and trace elements from vertebrae of Pacific white sharks to provide evidence for potential nursery habitat in the Gulf of CA. Full paper: tinyurl.com/3ap9krwb
#PostDoc Opportunity: We are seeking a postdoc fellow interested in developing integrative ecosystem models with a diverse group of fisheries, wetland, GIS, and quantitative scientists @SharkBioFishSci @MarshDispatch @MasamiFujiwara and Dr. Highfield. Inquire by 2/15! Details:
📢Undergrads! We plan to co-advise an REU student this summer with Dr. Rooker's Fisheries Ecology Lab at @AggiesByTheSea 🐟🦈🎣 See the info posted below and get your applications in by February 1st: tamug.edu/research/ocean…
Congrats to our newest Masters Student @Santiagodomsa! Santi successfully defended his Masters thesis where he tagged and analyzed movement data of giant manta rays in Bahía de Banderas, Mexico. He begins his PhD this spring at @osufwcs in the @OceanEcologyLab. Congrats Santi!
