Pumpkinseed as piscivorous pond predators? Seems like it! Check out our recent work in Ecological Society where pond sunfish acted as seasonal piscivores in the absence of bass #naturalhistory esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.10…

Keen on science communication and conservation physiology? An early-career researcher? Join our team: academic.oup.com/conphys/pages/…

🎉 We are excited to announce that Dr. Jacob Brownscombe, Research Scientist at Fisheries and Oceans, is the recipient of the 2025 Stevenson Lectureship Award! Jake Brownscombe’s research investigates fish habitat use in the Great Lakes region ow.ly/qom850TXkxW 🧵…

We’re hiring in #Winnipeg! Did you know you can estimate a fish's age by counting rings on its otoliths, similar to tree rings? Help us with this exciting work at the Winnipeg Fish Ageing Lab. We're hiring! Dive into fisheries science and apply today. ow.ly/WVHj50TZom7

New paper from Steph Blain! If you’re interested in our new approach to meta-analyses with more than two groups (e.g., ecotypes), it’s definitely worth a read. Plus, discover ecological drivers influencing post-glacial lake divergence! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/fw…

We are looking for master, PhD, and postdoc individuals that would be interested by a project with fish, food-web and winter ecology project in Canada. Experience with telemetry and/or isotopes will be a great asset! If interested, DM me :)

This work was incredibly enriching to coproduce, I enjoyed working with such a diverse team!

Just came across this method from 1970: researchers used a periscope-like device frozen into the ice to watch fish under the surface. Such a clever way to study winter ecosystems! 🐟❄️ From Magnuson & Karlen (1970). Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences #FisheriesScience doi.org/10.1139/f70-122

Recent work in CJFAS has been featured in Canadian Science Publishing's newest blog post 🐟🌡️ Bridging data and conservation: Dan Struthers on the future of stream temperature modelling ow.ly/mwGk50UfQc2 Parks Canada Fisheries and Oceans University of Leicester

📣 Just published in ConservationPhysiology with Jacob Bowman , Chris Wilson, and Graham Raby How much does upper thermal tolerance vary among wild populations of brook trout? What drives this variation? 🌡️ 🧵 1/5 doi.org/10.1093/conphy…

Now published open access in Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences. This one is for you nerds who like swim tunnel respirometry and accelerometer tags. Led by Trent University Research & Innovation MSc student Erin Ritchie, work done at CCIW with Jake Brownscombe from 2021-23. Thanks to GLFC for funding.

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. Preprint link below 🧵

Just out in Environmental Biology of Fishes! This paper is something to be proud of, we spent an incredible amount of time at some of Manitoba’s best lake trout fisheries. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Thank you SEB @sebiology.bsky.social for having me at this year’s #SEBconference in Antwerp, Belgium. Today’s Open Animal session was a full house despite being a Friday morning!
