I flew from Australia to LAX last week and nothing happened; there was an automated photograph kiosk and that's it (I say this as a fairly average-looking white dude traveling from a non-controversial country, of course).

It was my understanding that cows learn a lot about consent, agency, and bodily autonomy at Bovine University youtu.be/uViqemCgR4Y?...

😂 I love the way you describe this, as if the cow had chosen to get a remarkably exotic piercing at the local tattoo parlor

That’s like 8 hours of driving round trip

When I lived in coastal NC I mostly saw trawling happening well inside of that limit.

Thanks to @jkhopf.bsky.social and Michael Bode for their help as co-editors, and of course thanks to all of the peer reviewers who make this possible.

Finally Yamane et al. conduct an extensive power analysis to determine how long population models must be monitored (and how much they must be sampled) in order to reliably estimate harvest rates using a size-based method, either pre- or post-reserve implementation. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Chen et al. review our understanding of short-term, transient population dynamics in the marine reserve context, and the different outcomes possible when examining transient vs. equilibrium dynamics. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

I led a paper with @jkhopf.bsky.social and others reviewing the role of population dynamics theory in marine reserve design and assessment over the past 20 years link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Lawson & Costello examined the economics of bilateral reserve agreements for transboundary stocks, and found the ecological conditions (i.e., types of fish movement) in which one nation would accept payment from another to close its fishery and become a reserve. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

@danovando.bsky.social cautions that complex age-structured, multi-species models produce very different predictions than simpler surplus production models, so care should be taken when choosing models to represent marine reserve effects link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Cheripka et al. (a student of mine, now at NOAA) examined how range-shifting species respond to protection in reserves; in general networks of many smaller reserves (rather than single large reserves) was more helpful in facilitating persistence of such species. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Hilborn et al. use spatial models to show that a gradient in catch or abundance from inside a reserve out into the fished area is not a reliable indicator of 'spillover' that is benefiting the fishery. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

First, Innes-Gold et al. show that when rising sea temperatures affect population growth rate and carrying capacity affects how well reserves can protect fished populations and facilitate sustainable harvest. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

How is “dog” to the right of all humans on a log axis of body mass? And horse is below cat on the pee axis?

Did they want to … read? The genome?

Unclear what the point of being an editor is in that case. Although of course I believe you that this is the case, from my own experience

As an ESA member you get a free article per year (subject to some constraints)

We need time-sensitive, specific messaging about 1) grant terminations, 2) budget reductions, and 3) the change in indirect rates to 15%. We also need to communicate more generally about the importance of NSF funding.
We provide an easy to use media tool docs.google.com/document/d/1... to help you

Nature reports that the National Science Foundation has stopped awarding new grants and allotting funds to existing ones. All of them. @colincarlson.bsky.social says that unless the freeze is lifted, it “is going to destroy people's labs.” 2/10

Any job in science requires math and writing, so learning those subjects is learning how to do science!
