New fish migrations into the Panama Canal increase likelihood of interoceanic invasions in the Americas
Castellanos-Galindo et al. compare the fish communities of the freshwater section of the Panama Canal before and after its recent expansion. The fish community has shifted to one dominated by marine s...

Small-scale fisheries account for 40% of global catch, providing 20% of micronutrient intakes for up to 2.3 billion people and livelihoods for 1 in 12 people.

Huge effort involving @fao.org & 800 experts, out now in @nature.com

Hi Bluesky crowd! I am Gustavo, an interdisciplinary aquatic ecologist. I work in the coastal tropics and love being in the field. I am interested in almost everything related to fish/fisheries, mangroves, biological invasions and conservation. Looking forward to connecting with people over here!
