Congratulations to Samantha Silverbrand on successfully defending her MS thesis using New England Aquarium (New England Aquarium) displays as large mesocosms to evaluate eDNA metabarcoding for Gulf of Maine vertebrates and invertebrates


New Featured Paper from USGS EESC, examining and characterizing broad-scale patterns of genetic diversity in wild Brook Trout. What are the implications for the management and conservation of this important yet imperiled fish? afspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… 📸P. Yeomans and T. Harvey


New Naturalist Selections podcast with Dr. Zach Wood! We're talking about his @ASNAmNat paper with Michael Kinnison demonstrating non-congruent predator-mediated trait responses in introduced mosquitofish. Different populations exhibit distinct plastic and evolved trait responses!





Congrats to Vaughn Holmes (and team) on his first thesis pub evaluating optimal eDNA detection of anadromous rainbow smelt. Great example of eDNA for monitoring a tough-to-encounter species. Maine EPSCoR Wells Reserve at Laudholm trebuchet.public.springernature.app/get_content/59…
