Excited to share our new paper on #zooplankton 16S #microbiomes and #bacterioplankton across alpine lakes. We found deterministic processes > than intraseasonal temporal effects overall, with host filtering and dispersal limitation driving change in zoopl. #MolecularEcology

I got to spend the morning working with Paepae o He'eia pulling invasive upside down sea jellies from the loko i'a. They estimate 5 million in the pond, we pulled ~ 35,000 out today. Small progress, but rewarding to work hand-in-hand with the community kia'i. Join us next time! 🪼

New paper! During the #Covid pandemic, tourism was effectively halted in #Hawaii, reducing water use and wastewater discharge. How did these travel restrictions effect water quality on adjacent coral reefs in #Maui? *Spoiler*: water quality improved!

Our new paper on fire transformation of aquatic ecosystem function is now out in Global Change Biology. Favorite finding: burned reduced terrestrial N trophic transfer, increasing reliance of autotrophy by zooplankton
