I'm a evolutionary biologist at the University of Bergen... studying anthropogenic stressors on fish: fisheries-induced evolution in the lab, pink salmon invasion in Norway, hypoxia, eutrophication

What's the highest altitude population of salmonid you know? Which species, where and is it self sustaining?

Please repost for maximum exposure!

Cheers

The picture at the top is a very weird choice (it was constantly stormy and there was no sea ice!), but here's what I wrote for the Observer about the 5 weeks I just spent on a research ship in the Labrador Sea with colleagues, measuring the ocean breathing:

Link fixed, please share! The Hendrickson Lab is looking for a PhD student to join our team at @UCNZ as we embark on an ambitious new #phage hunt for marine phages in New Zealand. Join us in Christchurch as a member of this #MBIE Endeavour funded project! www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

So excited to see work on food web changes and shrinking body size in fishes. This is a prime example in sardine, showing that ”warmer waters with smaller prey dramatically increase energy expenditure.”

Nice try but I won't believe that crows are doing statistics until they start writing blog posts about how their junior colleagues' work doesn't replicate.

For the first time, research reveals crows use statistical logic

Excited to learn the latest data on pink salmon in Barents sea and Northern Europe. Next up data on Tana river. Thanks to County governor of Troms and Finnmark for organizing

This is a bit old, but I just a saw an amazing talk by Asha de Vos and here there is a somewhat summary

One building. One morning. Almost 1,000 dead birds.

I can’t even imagine what the numbers are across the entire city of Chicago.

Please consider turning lights off in your home and offices over night as our feathered friends make their journey south!

#HiSciSky I'm a postdoc at the university of Bergen working mainly on fisheries-induced evolution (FIE), but also on the effect of anthropogenic sound on cod behaviour, hypoxia interplay with FIE, pink salmon invasion, and eco-evo dynamics
