What are the effects of tagging on fishes? 🐟
Our review + meta-analysis explores intracoelomic tagging effects in fishes. We summarize the existing literature and examine the 2% rule using evidence from a broad representation of all published studies.

Think #stormpetrels just wing it to find a meal? 🍽️ Think again! Finally, our study is out: these tiny #seabirds use ocean dynamics to find #foraging grounds in the #WestMed. And guess what? Well-placed #MPAs help keep their ‘favorite restaurants’ open.🧑🍳 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

To me, this is such an important message, as so many ecologists seem (paradoxically) to lose their connection with nature as they get promoted up the career ladder. Time spent in nature, especially if together with the next generation of ecologists, is time very well spent.

Amazing to receive updates from Jens-kjeld on our Storm-petrels in their nestboxes on Nólsoy (Faroe Islands). Amidst the snow and blizzards, the parents keep visiting to feed these fluff balls, and we now only have two chicks left to fledge! I really hope they make it...

Personalities play a role in whether seabirds “divorce”—but sometimes climate change does, too.

On a breezy beach day along the Eastern Seaboard, there's a good chance you'll run into a somewhat particular shorebird—the American Oystercatcher.
