Vincent Fugère tells #MEES about the first LEAP experiment where we found rapid increase in community resistance to #glyphosate selection in phytoplankton. Check out the paper on bioRxiv biorxiv.org/content/early/…

Naíla LEAP results shown off by @bjesseshapiro at #MEES - very cool evidence of picoplankton community reorganization in response to pesticides #neonic #glyphosate

Katie Millette describes the LEAP 2017 experiment where she developed eDNA and eRNA methods to track #biodiversity change during the selection for resistance to acidification #MEES

Our most recent work is now out in ESA Frontiers. Have you ever considered #pesticides as a source of #phosphorus in agricultural watersheds? We quantified the supply of P derived from #Roundup #glyphosate use globally and across the US. Vincent Fugère Andy Gonzalez GRIL

jnmarleau #gonzalezlab shows that we CAN predict the dynamics of plankton communities in response to pH stress in LEAP if we include temperature dependence of metabolic functions AND the variability of the temperature the mesocosms experienced #CSBQ2018

How do we assess the stability of evolving communities? @sofiavanmoorsel used wavelets on DO data from LEAP 2018 pH stress to reveal the shifting structure of multiscale variability before, during and after pH stress. #gonzalezlab #csbq2018

LEAP just joined MESOCOSM mesocosm.eu a hub for information about mesocosm facilities worldwide provided by the MESOAQUA project. As in astronomy, when telescopes are networked, we can combine forces to better study global drivers of aquatic ecosystems.

"99 percent of 68 water samples collected from the large water system contained at least one of the 10 pesticides researchers tested for and 31 percent of the samples contained neonicotinoids at levels higher than Canada allows" ehn.org/pesticides-are…

“Trophic structure modulates community rescue following acidification” our first LEAP publication led by Graham Bell and Vincent Fugère out soon in Royal Society Publishing

Our first data paper from LEAP 2017 is out in Royal Society Publishing - Trophic structure modulates community rescue following acidification. Fantastic team of scientists Graham Bell Vincent Fugère @TrixieBB @bjesseshapiro Rowan Barrett Melania Cristescu Gregor Fussmann McGill Biology

LEAP now up on “mesocosm” the open virtual network of aquatic mesocosm facilities worldwide. You can check out the others in 🇨🇦 including the in-lake mesocosm we have Réserve naturelle Gault - Gault Nature Reserve mesocosm.eu/mesocosm/large…

Out now in NatureEcoEvo : Community rescue in phytoplankton communities following severe glyphosate pollution - biomass recovered but diversity was lost. Full-text access: rdcu.be/b2pho A big experiment at LEAP lead by Vincent Fugère and many collaborators.

Thrilled to share our latest LEAP publication ⬇️ Congratulations to @sofiavanmoorsel , the coauthors, and the fantastic field crew.

I'm so happy that this study found a home at Ecological Applications ! Special thanks to LEAP collaborators and shout outs to stellar ECR coauthors Vincent Fugère and Naíla

The latest publications (they come twos!) from #LEAP are out! They are about the impacts of Round Up on aquatic microbes and zooplankton. Congratulations to Naíla and Marie-Pier Hébert for leading such great research.

Our research LEAP is gathering evidence that #glyphosate (aka RoundUp) impacts freshwater ecosystems - even when used according to guidelines. Papers in Molecular Ecology and Ecological Applications led by Naíla Marie-Pier Hébert montreal.ctvnews.ca/glyphosate-a-t… via CTV Montreal
